I hate the city of Philadelphia

[ShelleBink]

I spend a portion of this past weekend there, and just found it to be a really boring place. Maybe spending so much time in NYC has gotten me jaded.

[grlNIN]

No, you're right, Philly is beat.

[Tenbatsuzen]

Philly has some charm to it, but it's nowhere near my Top 10 favorite cities to visit. NYC, Phoenix, DC, Orlando.

that is only 4.

[ShelleBink]

Well, I was in Central Philly and in heels... I wasn't goin far ((within walking distance of the hotel)) although I found it more fun to hang in the hotel room with a super hot dude.

But I didn't have sex.

So I blame it on Philadelphia.

*shakes fist*

[raulfd4]

philadelphia is the city of brotherly love. im not surprised.

[ppanda]

I have to go to Philly the week of 4/9 through 4/12 for work. I love NY and spend much time there so I will be back during that week to report my opinion

[Redding]

philly sucks....i live in the burbs of it

[ppanda]

I need to stay away from this thread- I wanna go in un-biased

[weekapaugjz]

ive been in philly as many times as i have been in nyc. though philly doesn't compare to ny (but really what city does) i thought it was a very cool city and had a good time every time i went. not trying to take a dig at nyc residents, but you have to take a step away from new york and not compare every city you go to, to nyc. each city has its own thing to offer.

I think you can blame the fact, that, he is a total fag... What kind of straight man, spends time with an attractive girl, in a hotel room, AND DOES NOT HAVE SEX!! F-A-G!

I kinda did the same thing with Chicago when I went...I had a good time but it wasnt NY. But I still liked it.
I wanna go to Philly with a clean slate. I am staying at the Lowes hotel- I heard was really nice and is right across from he hard rock there. Needless to say I will be faced on the corporate card and posting late those nights..ha ha ha

[TheGameHHH]

philly blows, it a total second rate city

For Fun And Range Of Things To Do, Philly Can't Compete With New York...But No City Can! But If You Are Interested In History And "Culture" Philadelphia Has ALOT To Offer.

That Is Not Exactly The "Culture" Fat Had In Mind!

Philly gave us the Constitution and cheese steaks: two things that make America great.

Steve Carlton is waiting for you at the Ben Franklin bridge with a plate of Scrapple in one hand and fast ball in the other.

[Furtherman]

Wow... I am not liking the Philadelphia bashing!!

Look folks, of course it doesn't compare to NYC. NYC is bigger! There's more to do... but that doesn't make it any less fun becasue you had a bad experience. You just have to look around... know where to go.

Of course I am biased being born and raised there, but I love Philly and if you are going and need some tips of what to do, what to see, let me know and I'll be glad to offer some tips.

Oh, and it's not Philly's fault if you didn't get laid. That's your fault.

[fiestygal..i'mback!]

SHELLE!!! HOW DARE YOU!! LIKE NEW BRUNSWICK IS ANY FREAKING BETTER..haha

yea i really USED to hate Philly and that is where i am from...but now i can appreciate it especially around OLDE CITY .. quite frankly it is quite breath taking, I suggest you try it :)

[LOAF]

I live right outside of Philly and have to say, I actually like it better than New York. Its probably because I know everywhere to go in philly and its not full of tourists from EVERYWHERE, god thats annoying. I was up at NYU friday night for a show its not bad there but thats because it reminded me a little of OLDE CITY in Philly!

Believe or not one of my favorite east coast cities is Baltimore!

[Don Stugots]

i went to Philly last summer for a weekend. it was a nice time. we walked and walked. the city was very pet friendly with alot of parks and pets welcomed in a few hotels. Plus, cheesesteaks from gino's. doesnt get much better.

[LOAF]

Furtherman, you put up the wrong skyline!!!!

[Terry-Two]

If you like sports franchises with a history of shitting the bed and the most obnoxious, white trash, piece of shit fans, then Philly is the place for you.....other than that, it blows.

[Furtherman]

That's the new Comcast building huh? The Comcastle. It's almost above Liberty One one today.

[sailor]

that is only 4.

gold star for you, li'l fella!

[Contra]

The driving and streets in Philly are HORRIBLE. I good luck trying to find anything.

[Furtherman]

Well if you ask directions in that crazy accent, no one is going to be able to help you!!

Yes it does my friend.

Cheesesteaks from Jim's.:tongue:



One of the things I love about Philly, is bring any racist asshat you know down to a little place called Kensington, and dare that person to ever act like their race is any better than any other race.

[MadMatt]

Philly is a cool place to go, but you have to know where to go. Also, if you are into history and culture Philadelphia is right up there. The new Constitution Center, Independence Hall, the Philly Art Museum, playhouse row, etc. There are also a lot of great bars.

Of course I know a lot more about Philly than NYC, but you shouldn't slam Philly because you didn't call me first :happy:

Charlotte, NC is another GREAT city to hang out in. Its a very young city with excellent night life.

[Marc with a c]

philly is rough, last time i was there I was bruised and battered and I couldn't tell
what I felt, I was unrecognizable to myself. Saw my reflection in a window I didn't know
my own face. I walked the avenue till my legs felt like stone, I heard the voices of friends vanished and gone. At night I could hear the blood in my veins, just as black and whispering as the rain

it was very uncomfortable.

you were raped?

[Furtherman]

you were raped?

Yes, he was. By Tom Hanks.

[Marc with a c]

if i had to be raped, had to, tom hanks would probably be in the top 5.

[PapaBear]

I miss mod quotes.

[Marc with a c]

I miss mod quotes.

yeah. what happened to mod quotes? are they gone forever?

[ChimneyFish]

if i had to be raped, had to, tom hanks would probably be in the top 5.



You would put an AIDS inflicted Tom Hanks in your top 5????

You're braver than me, fella.

[ShelleBink]

maybe the area i was in just didn't have a lot to offer.

and no, i didn't have sex - not because he's a fag.

[K.C.]

Word has it that Philadelphia hates ShelleBink.

But I still think she's cool. :smile:


You probably didn't hit the right spots...Philly can be a lot of fun, but you've got to know what to do.

The asshole ratio per capita may be even higher than New York, though, so you have to know how to deal with that, too.

[fupduck]

I grew up in Philly and moved away as soon as I could.
Can't say I miss it but I do like going back as a tourist.

[Hottub]

I hate the Cream Cheese of Philadelphia!

Listen to the filth spewing out of your mouth! Rubbish

Thank you.

I could have you shot for that.:tongue:

Philly is really awful. And everybody's dead broke.

[Hottub]

I can never visit Philadelphia, without being reminded of the story of the Texan...
