Philadelphia, PA. One of my college buddies grew up there and I ended up partying there probably 15 times, and spent another couple weeks with his family. The down is dirty as all hell and really smells, the people are lazy, the girls are gross, and the accent they sport became like nails on the chalkboard after about 2 visits.

Yet more points for Philly.

- dirty, overpriced, yet bankrupt public transportation
- stench in the streets
- 5% wage tax
- corrupt government
- an illiterate mayor
- grossly over-powerful unions
- lazy-ass entitlement work ethic of the people (see previous point)
- the Chinese food in its China town sucks
- inarguably the most obnoxious sports fans in the country (the battery incident was my favorite)

They have one of the best business schools in the country, but 95% of Wharton graduates leave Philly immediately upon graduation. They spend craploads of tax dollars trying to figure out why.

The cheesesteaks are just as good in the suburbs.

Philadelphia.

Oh yeah, I forgot about Philly's perpetual, justly-deserved, yet consistently-denied inferiority complex.

Just about every mayor, from Wilson Goode to John Street, has run a goddamned clinic on how to [censored] up a city.

Wow. Great sample size you got there. Total of um, three.

You're just mad because we put Rendell in the Governor's spot.
