Please, please continue to bash LA. Especially bash it in such a manner that will discourage highbrow snoots from visiting here.
We Angelinos know everything that is wrong with this place, and we know it far better than the accidental visitor who finds himself having a panic attack because he tried to drive the Santa Monica Freeway at 5:00 on a weekday.
And we love it here despite, and sometimes even because of all the shit that drives outsiders nuts. Go on. bash Los Angeles. It's 3:00 in the morning, and I know just where to go for a tastier taco than can be found anywhere at any price east of the San Andreas fault.
Hate the daylights out of us, please.
And then go visit 'Frisco.
(they hate when call it 'Frisco)
