Truth, but it's the same in Reno and it's cheaper there.

I also think this comparison is kind of like saying which one of my two scars was the funnest getting.

Toilet Fleet wrote:ross has his correct points about what makes LA suck but the transit thing has gotten so much better and is already much better than any number of big cities in the u.s. that i kind of wonder what efforts he took to use it. in LA proper, the metro is pretty great. that there is a three plus hour window of nonuse is kinda lame, but the blue line runs all the way to long beach, and the expo extension to santa monica is gonna be open in like a month. and suburbs/exurbs are well serviced by metrolink that compares favorably to other light rail. it's easier for poor people to afford car expenses than the rents near most metro-serviced areas, but that's the truth basically every place that has subway/light rail service—plus there isn't a mass transit culture out here yet, which will take time

yeah, SF seems similar - you'll have a good time if you're near rail, a terrible time if you're on a bus.

you're right that I didn't put much effort into transit. the stuff we wanted to do was in Alhambra & W Hollywood - driving was ~40 min and transit would be ~90 min. that's slow but not impossible. it's just that things are SO spread out; it feels like anytime you're in an area to do a thing, there's just that thing and not that many neighborhoods/districts where you can walk around and have a good time in that area. I've deliberately spent very little time there, so of course I could be missing a ton. but from what I've seen in Hollywood & Beverly hills, when there is density of stuff-to-do, it's a sort of BAD density.

alhambra to weho is like 17 miles of driving equivalent, so really that's not so bad; my new york commute for years was 12 miles driving equivalent in 70 minutes—but like i said, mass transit commuter culture is a powerful thing

the trend now with southern california in even the short amount of time i've been here is the rebirth of downtowns and mixed-use business districts for both LA itself and surrounding cities. it's gonna take like 25-30 years to reach its fullest potential, but it's trending in the right direction for sure—especially when compared to most other cities across the country

I actually think CA drivers are pretty well-behaved top-to-bottom. valor in the face of a harrowing reality and all that.

Traffic or not, I've never taken cars for granted after having to take public transportation on and off for 8 years. Especially if there's AC involved with no other people in the car.

What is even the point of expressing consternation at modern life if you refuse to pull your head out of the sand about who what where why and how it's happening.

It just makes you look a whiny, exasperated faggit.
