Edited on Mon Apr-25-05 01:07 PM by JimmyJazz
Cleveland - I can't take all this fighting. Should we meet at midnight for a lounge rumble and settle things once and for all or should we all kiss and make up?

Since some of you have started already, I voting for kissing and making up. :*

even if their sports teams suck...

9. Since when are beer-drinking and fighting mutually exclusive?
Personally I'd LOVE to see a Cleveland-Chicago-Boston rumble! Talk about cities with experienced brawlers... I'd just feel bad for the Bostonians after Chi & Cle BOTH decided to gang up on their snob asses!

11. When I'm drinking beer...I don't have time to think of fighting
I would like to see that rumble too, but I doubt I would be rumbling very much. It would be fun though.

6. Fuck that.
Boston sucks. Its only redeeming factor is the acting career of John Ratzenberger was launched there. Big whoop.

If someone took a huge saw and cut Boston into nthe ocean, a few people would cry, but they'd get over it. Then they'd take their "cahs" to a "pahty." and cheer up.

19. You forgot the Bosstown Sound of the 1960s
Of course, the only hit that came out of it was by a band from Los Angeles, which is probably why you forgot about it. Along with 300 million other Americans.

35. It doesn't make any sense, either.
I mean, LA water is just as dirty as Boston water.

It doesn't SMELL as bad, nor are the women as frustrating, but still....

8. I think you are gonna get in trouble
for ignoring Twintown. KC has been having meet-ups for a while, but they are not sleep-overs. I do not like any big city myself, but in that match-up.
Boston - 1776 tradition, liberal Massachusetts (but Pres election record 1-3)
Chicago - Haymarket tradition, very blue state, but also land of Lincoln (original Republican) and FIBs.
Cleveland - Home of DK, but also the state the incorrectly decided 2004. But not because of Cleveland. We know from Drew Carey that Cleveland rocks.

So I have to go with Cleveland, even if I did sorta get lost there once.

Is there any way we can meet in Toronto?

Would the rest of you be ready for Detroit's heterosexual men sucking face?

And don't forget - Peter Werbe is a Detroiter.

Or in Cleveland's case, because we're scared of *becoming* you.

from an affinity for unfocused anger, Pere Ubu, WRUW and the Dead Boys.

Edited on Mon Apr-25-05 01:57 PM by mark414
that being, everyone needs to realize that MILWAUKEE is the best city in the country

once you all can accept that, all this silly infighting will cease

And have the nerve to call it beer. We have the Goose. Detroit has Bell's. Boston has Sam Adams.
