You should come visit sometime; but plan at least a 2 day trip, because at least 1 of those days will be entirely spent stuck in traffic.

Rich people and their servants. Many of whom are failed yuppies. They tried to play the rigged game and failed now, they get to lick the winners ass. Demoralized, overweight formally middle class people who walk around vacant and looking like nearly dead fish out of water. Stupid young women with no hope of ever finding love or marriage selling their bodies to old, fat pigs.

Average home is an out of date, hideous shithole that sells for at least $500,000.

Sado-masochistic empty shells who know and want for nothing outside of the cycle of abuse. Its wrapped up in the image of a McMansion and a Mercedes so its all good in their eyes.

Leave then and PLEASE LET THE DOOR HIT YOU ON THE WAY OUT. My guess is that you never bother to get to know any of your neighbors, you don't volunteer to help out with any religious or civic organizations, and don't attend community events. Your bitterness stems not from Northern Virginia being filled with pretentious overpaid Yuppies, but rather from the fact that you didn't become one of them.

Actually, the most bigoted and racist people I have ever met are from NJ and MA. I was shocked at how many racist comments they would make without batting an eye.

Right on the fucking money, m8. As soon as I graduate college, i'm moving out of this shithole, providing i'm financially stable by then (unlikely given the current circumstances) But one can dream r-right?

People from NJ and NY speak their mind..Guess what, nobody likes illegal spics and violent blacks and middle eastern fucks...Nobody. People here just say it behind closed doors.
Would you live in a community laced with violent blacks or illegal Hispanics? Didn't think so.

If it has turned into a shit hole, it is because of people like you. Get off your ass and get involved. Stop with the "I'm too busy", "That's what I pay taxes for" and "That job is beneath me" bullshit. Part of what made this area a decent place when we were kids was that we had parents and others who were willing to do crap they didn't want to do in order to make this a better community to live and raise families in. There are still places and groups like that in NoVa, but like then it takes work.

Hey Bill N,

I grew up in Rockville behind Pete Dom- ( guess the rest ) the senator. My father invented something that was sold to the BIC company for over 10 million dollars.

When I was a child, I would see poor people and it made me actually cry. To this day I have never had a pedicure. I do not want immigrants scrubbing the dead skin off the bottom of my feet. I hate restaurants, having others control my food is torture to me. If I were to ever get a corporate job, I'd only be there to whistleblow.

I'm jealous of nothing. This place blows and so do the people. They do nothing about it as long as they get butter, or not and believe the crap that they're just jealous of something that has been pushed down their throats. Speak of the n*ggers who protect the gangs who destroy their streets! Who are most of you people?

Open your eyes. The place has gone to shit. I do admire your love for the area, I use to have the same emotions.
Every time coming back on a flight from different parts of the country i'm reminded how this area has changed for the worse. This area was the best in the mid 90's. I wish I still held the positive thoughts you have of NOVA but the fact is the place is a shithole.

I don't love this area Head. I just don't think it is as bad as some of you make it out to be.

In my twenties I lived in several places outside NoVa, all of which I liked better at the time. Since moving back here I have gone back to each of those places to visit. They all have changed in ways I don't like. If I had stayed there though I am sure I would have been fine with them, because I would have friends there, activities and other connections which would have grown despite those changes.

There are plenty of other places in this country to make friends instead of having a choice between a second world neighborhood or paying out the nose for an overpiced home still with crappy traffic/commute

P.S. If you are one of the lucky few that can actually afford a 750k+ house you are still an idiot to spend that kind of money where in most other places around the country you would be a king instead of still keeping up with the Joneses.

Is it me, or are people rude and snobbish here? I was visiting a family member San Fransisco and the people there in general are nicer. While walking down the sidewalk, I simply greet people with a hello when extended eye contact is made, and lo behold, they greet back, with a warm smile to top it off, almost without fault! Here in NOVA, when I do the same thing, I occasionally end up being ignored or i'm given the stank eye. What gives?

That's bullshit. I work in the Bay Area for 7 years. They have their own kind of snobbery. They have both tech snobbery and old money (from the railroad days) snobbery. It's actually worst then here, maybe because they actually create economic value and earned the right to be snobs.

It seems like a lot of you see so much negativity in your life because you're very negative people. You can probably start off by not calling every hispanic and black person you see here an illegal spic or a violent nigger. The bigotry is part of why your life is so shitty. Instead of moaning about how shitty things are now, do something to help out! Go volunteer at the library or something, it will make you feel a lot better about yourself.

If you stop being such an asshole, you'll attract other nice people. It's a fact of life if you live anywhere. Yes the traffic is shitty and there's a lot of pricks around here (perhaps like some of the people in this thread..?), but there's a lot of nice, caring, and honest people here too.

They are just trolls. Most likely kids, or, people who dont go anywhere. People who are refined dont act like they do. I dont even know where these clowns come from. I never met with more racism then I have in this forum. Amazing really. It brings out the worst in you. I wish there was an alternative forum. I dont know how much this one makes but all someone would have to do is ban the racist nonsense to know this one off. That would be easy to do.

“refined” are YOU refined? Does a refined person say he is refined or does that make him not refined? I think you need to ask yourself these questions and don’t come back until you figure out whether you are refined or not! Now, go! Shame on you.

Dr. Martin classified refined sugar as a poison because it has been depleted of its life forces, vitamins and minerals. "What is left consists of pure, refined carbohydrates.

" Refined " A human animal who tries its best to reduce others to the animal, all the while proclaiming to be above the animal.

Moved to Fairfax from Cambridge 6 years ago. before Cambridge, we were in NYC, Detroit, Chicago, and Nairobi over the past 25 years. Really resisted the whole suburban vibe at first here, but it's ok now. My neighbors are all really nice people; hell, the whole block is spot on.

My kids can walk to school. The schools they attend seem to have few problems and all their friends at school are great. Their friends parents are all also very nice, down to earth and responsible people.

Yes, the traffic sucks, but I ride my bike at least 50% of the time and take the VRE to work, so I rarely deal with traffic. When I do, I simply plan ahead for it.

There are downsides, of course. It's freaking expensive here and wayyyyyyy too many mansions and rich clowns with their noses in the air putzin' around in Jaguars. AND suburbia literally has nothing to do in it. I can walk up to the Safeway or whatever... that's it. Fairfax City? LOL! It's a joke town that's slowly stripping away it's older businesses in favor of new, shiny empty buildings! Stupid!

That said, I never thought that I'd end up in suburbia, let alone the greater DC area when I was younger... But, now that I have, I can handle it. We have a nice small yard with a massive garden. We really like working on our house and volunteering around the 'hood. One can really make it a decent place. It certainly isn't half as bad as people in this thread make it sound.

In fact, I'd venture to guess that most of the whiners here are trapped in unhappy homes, with crappy parents (yeah, it's that obvious that they are young).

The people bitching in this thread are the biggest problems you'll deal with in Northern Virginia. I fucking love it and I clearly live a better lives than you miserable herbs. Move to North Dakota and tell me how much Northern Virginia sucks. Drive 40 minutes to Wal-Mart, the only place you can get anything, then tell me how much it sucks to live here. Lastly, go fuck your miserable selves.

The only reason they'd move is because it's full of people who look like them (and even then there are those that look like you who misbehave); let's be real here. Not saying it's wrong, but the way people on this site BS about their true intentions/agenda is just sad.

You all hate PC, yet you're some of the biggest offenders of it. What, you're too scared to say what you really mean in anonymity? What a joke.

Yes. We fled to the mountains, but even that seems to not be enough.

You can justify this shithole all you want, but as soon as you take your first vacation elsewhere, it becomes very easy to contrast; traffic, people, attitudes, infrastructure, roads, local economy... to name a few.

For the self-proclaimed lawyer: You're not a lawyer.

you're joking, right? I'm in San Francisco for work right now, staying at a 4 star hotel and there are homeless roaming the hallways.

Interesting take on the whole NOVA lifestyle current day. I'm a native and former resident, grew up and lived here 'til the early 2000s. Sounds to me like most of you are a bit unfamiliar with our delicate subculture; every area of the country has one, and it's patently misunderstood by newcomers and transients. That said, an explanation:

Nope, it's not you Shabon, and there's a reason for it. Keep in mind, your residing in the nation's capital. Your neighbors live in NOVA, but many of them work in DC; could be The Hill, The Pentagon, or a myriad of other agencies. With that comes some level of security clearance. First and foremost, we're not to reveal that we hold a clearance AT ALL. We're further briefed on how to conduct ourselves in public or among a circle of friends, but many are still stricken with a bit of paranoia, especially new or newly upgraded clearance holders. Thus the stank eye. Same question was posed to me by my then-new wife years ago. She was a transplant from Dublin who'd only lived in the country for 3 years at the time. She'd go out of her way to befriend a neighbor 4 doors down who eventually took to walking across the street just to avoid her. It was later revealed that the young lady was a captain in the Air Force working at The Pentagon. I told her to drop it from that point forward, and she's cursed the day she moved to NOVA ever since, hence the reason we moved (among others).

Oh, here here Bill! My Mom was staunchly against us becoming part of the Washingtonian “haves” clique. We did alright, actually very well, but Mom was always about dropping my sister and I at Washington Hospital Center or National Wildlife Federation for volunteer work on the weekends in high school. It was either that or church on Saturday. My guess is there's not much of that going 'round in the area nowadays.

Well said, RonO, and what an interesting life you've lived! The contributors do seem a bit young and, sadly, jaded. It troubles me that their viewpoint is such when they're just starting out. Can't say much about the rich clowns. They're everywhere and always will be. Not against the odd Jag in the parking lot either; you earned it, you want it, go get it. But just realized you've been blessed, and you could lose it as easily as you got it. MCI Worldcomm and Arthur Andersen had just fallen hard when I left; wonder what happened to those “haves”.

Just my take on it.

For someone claiming to have had all this experience here, you certainly didn't pick up on very much. Bunch of comic book nonsense and grade school grammar mistakes.

How y'all doing? I'm well! One thing I want to put down is that the fact that Northern Virginia isn't Virginia, I've lived in Danville, Richmond, Texas, Hampton & Emporia and Virginia is WAYYY southern than Texas. Northern Va is (excuse my language) SHIT! Yes, Shit! It's filled with stupid Indians mixed in with Arab and Spanish! Ew! Down in Central/Southern Virginia, we are More Redneck and Southern than All of Texas! And we also don't have Mexicans working at Mcdonalds

Nobody from here wants there. Higher taxes, higher insurance costs, higher gas prices. MD is the dirt and darkness of Gotham City to our shining El Dorado.
