"What can you say about ...Phoenix!!"


What can you say about ...Phoenix!! - 8/5/2009

Bob
Ventura, CA

I concur. I am active duty military with southern roots and a european up bringing. I have never seen such a deep void of class and culture in all my worldly travels!! They can't drive here and rubber necking is a form "deer-in-the-headlights, window licking" sport. I work in the high schools almost daily and knew more by the fifth grade than most of these kids do as seniors!! And that includes "Snottsdale" Unified, I throw out common high school trivia and am stunned at the clueless look on the kids faces!! Image they get; having knowledge not so much. The social scene here is a trip as most women here have no clue of a real man. Games they love; having decency, not so much. Clue ladies: men are NOT supposed to be self-centered jerks with Range Rovers and a fat wallets or posers!! Be yourself and make it off your backs! Sorry, but I love to listen and people watch and Scottsdale keeps me entertained weekly. All in all the hiking and natural wonder of PHX isn't bad but the people ruin everything when you get back to the insane asylum!! I can't wait for Orders out of here!!

re: What can you say about ...Phoenix!! - 8/5/2009 - 9/10/2009
I can't wait until you get orders out of here too. You were brought up in the South - you can't compare Phoenix to anywhere in the south, and you shouldn't. To call women clueless shows just how bitter you are or what you're priorities are. Go find yourself a good Texan if you think the women here have no clue. Post like these DO NOT HELP people make a judgment about where they want to potentially live. The only thing you got potentially right is that kids aren't well educated here. We rank 49th in the nation when it comes to education. But quit using this forum to vent your dislike of unimportant things.
