Pretty good Boulder rant....

[smmokan]

Bags, good point. There are all those ethnic festivals every weekend to make up for it though!

Again... if you don't like these people, why are you talking with them? Its not like you walk down Pearl Street and people tell this to you to your face. I've been in Boulder or around Boulder for almost three years, and I guess I've just been fortunate enough to not run into any of these people you all speak about. Everyone I've met is pretty damn cool and fun to hang out with.

Well, based on your posts in this thread, you are one of those people.

[The AD]

You've got the really white white kids and the really tan white kids and all the varying shades in between.

Yeah, and some of them even have dreadlocks!

[Dr. Gaper]

Really Tan White Kids. That's some funny shit right there.

[Buster Highmen]

I've come to accept anywhere that has lots of 'outdoorsy' people has lots of kooks, snobs and poseurs as well

Kinda like here, huh?

[smmokan]

I'm about as far from those people as possible. Being from out of state, I'm pretty humbled when it comes to may abilities and accomplishments. I'm just trying to understand where everyone meets these jackasses that boast about their prowesses.

shhh, it'll be our little secret.

Like I said you are free to define them however you want. We are all kooks, snobs and poseurs to someone.

[Buster Highmen]

We are all kooks, snobs and poseurs to someone.

I like to cut out the middlemen, oops, middlePeople.

[The AD]

We are all kooks, snobs and poseurs to someone.

So your goal should be to not be a kook, snob and poseur to everyone.

I'll follow your lead chief. Could you give more obvious lessons?

Bottom line: Boulder has enough hot ass running around to more than make up for any other issues with its populace.

Sooo true.

God though, this thread is a joke. Around here Boulder bashing has just become another lame cliché anyway.

Personally who gives a fuck? Live where you wanna live, do what you wanna do and hang out with people you like. Ignore the rest….

Anyway, people who think they are more “core” (what a lame term) than you or who constantly spray about their abilities are just insecure.

Tru dat.

Yes, my special goal for you is to quit being such a twat.

I guess that's pretty obvious, too.

[scoober]

I just bought a German automobile-gonna chip it.

That cracks me up. At least he's an honest douchebag.

Smolakian, have you found the big titted floozy waitress at the mexican joint next to 7-11 yet?

[Sphinx]

Sounds like Eugene, OR.

[flowtron]

Thats a great rant.

I lived in Boulder for a year in 2001, we used to make fun of Denver.

After moving around a bit and spending time in SLC, now I live in Denver and I make fun of Boulder....and SLC, sorry Bags. I make fun of Aurora and lots of other stuff too.

When I'm driving my Subaru up I70 to go play in the mtns I make fun of myself.

Whoa....wierd...

I make fun of you when I'm in the mountains too.

Front range > Columbus

Well, duh?! I just see the Western Slope as more likely. I'd never really rule out the FR tho.

[mr_gyptian]

Front range > Columbus

immutable law

[Pinner]

Boulder's alright.





...for a sterile enclave of over-educated white people all desperately trying to be different just like everybody else.

Interesting points. Any mountain town will have it's share of people that love to spray about how extreme they are or the gnarly things they do. I know mammoth does, and I had the pleasure of working near some of these people. I just found that I would just ignore them. People like this will always be a fixture of any town that has major recreational opportunities near it. You wanna know the best way to avoid these people? Go out and do the recreational activities that you moved to your town for. The funny thing with alot of these people is that as much as they spray, they probably get out a 1/4 of what the people who don't spray do. Instead of spraying about it, just go do it.

People will always diss mountain towns like the one I live in, but for me, if they decide they don't like it, they can leave. The way I look at it, it's one less car on the road, one less person to get a job over you, and one less person getting in the way of your line on the hill. Take it as you will, but that's what I think and I'll stand by it.

Ha! I did eat a nice plate of hungover huevos rancheros at Santiagos on Saturday morning! I did not see the aformentioned waitress. When does she come out of her den?

[skiHOG]

that article is right on the money about boulder, but i still like it. what i dislike the most are all the Trusties gaping around town.

[rideit]

I dunno....keep going! We caught her two days in a hungover-huevos row. I think her name is felicia. Have you met Dave and Anthony at the Casa de MTB? They are my bro's...
