Review of Tulsa, Oklahoma


tusa very sad place
Star Rating - 10/13/2013
Tulsa is the most boring and beige place in the country. There is nothing to do. There is no scenery or flowers. Walking is dangerous. Drivers hate pedestrians and people here think if you are taking a walk, like people do all over America, that there is something wrong with you. I was run over while I had the right of way by a woman twice, who then had the nerve to tell me she didn't do it, even as a witness called the paramedics...even after I flew off the roof of her car. The cops here are good ole boys who hate women. If you are in trouble for domestic violence, be careful. One cop told me he should arrest ME for bothering him and wasting his time, then he stayed for an hour wasting his own time, and constantly saying that if I didn't resolve this, he would arrest ME, not the abuser. He would not let me close enough to see his badge. When I was run over the cop did not take my statement, but held up the ambulance to take the woman who hit me's statement. When I called for police report I got a runaround all day. There is no culture or social life. The libraries have hardly any books and even the librarians are uneducated and did not know who Tennessee Williams was. The landlords have full rights and tenants no rights. The water is so bad that the sink plugs turn black and the black can't be washed off. If you are not from here, they hate you. They hate you because you can read and put a sentence together that is logical. The standard answer to any question about any subject is: I don't know or I wasn' there, so I don't know. Jobs pay 1980 wages and they are mostly garbage jobs. There is much white trash and ghetto trash and no noise ordinances. In fact, there are hardly any laws at all that give quality of life. The real problem is the lack of anything to do...How many times can you spend money on the ballet? The restaurants are overpriced and very very bad. The food in supermarkets is standard with hardly any interesting food unless you want to go to Whole Foods and spend a fortune. People are just nasty, stupid and rude. Yet they think they are really smart. Walmart is the only place to go. The weather is awful. Sometimes 118 in summer and dank and damp in winter. People live in their cars and then they go home and you cannot meet anyone just walking as you can in other places. Do not live here if you want a normal life.

We Tulsans are quite glad your white trash ass has hopefully moved. Tulsa is a place rich with culture that anyone with an education can see and experience. I could see how that'd be hard for someone with an IQ of about 40, though. So thanks for wasting our resources and hating on police officers who are simply trying to help you when you call them to break up what I'm sure isn't the first domestic dispute you've been in. But you are probably the kind of person who will stay just to be certain you have something to bitch about constantly in case your boyfriend you keep taking back isn't fighting with you. Tulsa is a fun and interesting place to live and doesn't claim to be any more than a small city with a lot of history. There are plenty of cute, local, fun, and interesting things to do. But for that you need to make a friend and probably do something besides complain about the city you live in. Hopefully you learned how to use a sidewalk and resolve your own fights without having the cops called on you. Let me know when you're ready to move, I'll get the UHAUL ready.
