Greetings from the land of ten thousand lakes!
Or possibly more like ten thousand wanks, as twin_cities confronts classism! or, well, probably more asshatism but that's an ism too, right?
It starts when frelsun posts wanting to find out where the bad neighborhoods in Minneapolis are. Apparently he was traumatized running through North Minneapolis, being variously hassled, chased, thrown things at, and witnessing a drug deal. He also throws in a lot of strange comments about how Minneapolis seems so poor compared to St. Paul and why would the mayor of such a place actually live there since it seems poor and crappy?
Wank begins in the first comment: "Try the lakes, since you seem to be allergic to "poor people."" And they're off!
A small wank, but hell, it's a slow day. Highlights include the OP trying to defend himself "No, no, I believe in the nobility of the working class!", </a>p_bau having a somewhat OT meltdown about people in Uptown judging him (warning, not strictly NSFW but kinda disturbing cat/Disney icons) followed by an entire post that's um. I'm not sure, but appears to be outing himself as a troll? [BALEETED} Also a non-Minnesotan is traumatized by the lack of Minnesota Nice. (what, just because it's a NICE stereotype we have to uphold it? We have as much right to be jerks on the internet as everyone else!)
ETA: and like the Energizer Bunny rising from the ashes, p_bau just keeps going, and going, and going...
