Hating on New York and San Francisco

To all the Republicans- and even some Democrats- portraying New York and San Francisco negatively in your election campaigns, please keep going. The last thing we need are the yokels from flyover country moving to either city.

  1. OK, I really hate the term “fly-over country”. It just enhances the coastal elitist stereotype. Fuck that. There are plenty of intellectuals that arise from non-coastal areas. And they are much less snooty. And this is coming from somebody who is much against Texan elitism. And everybody here are not “yokels”. In fact, the New Yorkers and Californians that move here are generally more “yokelly” than the native Austinites.

  2. But Jascha, I am a coastal snotty elitist!

  3. Heh. Touche!
