Boston is. NYC is.

Re: Boston is better than NYC!!!

I know, "Hub of the Universe" is very modest.
 
Re: Boston is better than NYC!!!

More sophisticated, anyhow.
 
Re: Boston is better than NYC!!!

Holmes actually only said "Hub of the Solar System". Modest compared to "universe," no?

Also, he was referring to the State House, not to Boston.
 
Re: Boston is better than NYC!!!

Even so, I think NYC's description is more accurate than Boston's.
 
Re: Boston is better than NYC!!!

I guess I just hear people regularly say that NYC is the "greatest city in the world" more than I hear people say Boston is the "hub of the universe". For example, on David Letterman's show they say it every night.
 
Re: Boston is better than NYC!!!

We all know that if Boston is better than New York, then Boston is better than London, because New York is better than London (according to a lot of the members at SleepNY and around the internet).

But I dont think that it's that simple. You see, in New York we have this dude.

There aint no one like him doing stuff like that in Boston, surely?
 
Re: Boston is better than NYC!!!

Boston is awsome and most certainly a location, but it's not even in the same class as NYC.
 
Re: Boston is better than NYC!!!

Hey Tiki, if NYC is so great, then why do they have forums about sleep? :p
 
Re: Boston is better than NYC!!!

I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW AMAZING NYC IS!!!! HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!!! THAT 2ND AVENUE SUBWAY PROJECT IS ALMOST DONE!!!!!
 
Re: Boston is better than NYC!!!

Are you living in 2016? Cause...no.
 
Re: Boston is better than NYC!!!

I think this is a silly thread, but honestly, what are the measurements for comparison? Economy doesn't make a great place. Population doesn't either. Culture and society might, in both of which areas Boston has traditionally given NYC a run for its money. and for a long time Boston was leading the pack in terms of "society," with NYC and Philly trailing somewhere in the distance.

I think it is right to say the two cities are not in the same class. NYC is much more cosmopolitan, but what does this mean for which city is "better." and what does that even mean anyway? Both cities are a collection of inner core areas and annexed outer areas, some of which have urbanized much more than others. Not all of NYC is what it looks like on postcards. Pound for Pound I would say Boston might actually have more to offer. That is to say, in my opinion, NYC may have more going for it, but per person Boston offers more. Just an opinion.
 
Re: Boston is better than NYC!!!

THIS not provin the true on FOOsBALL feld with the dum JETS going to SUNNY SAN DEIGO and Holywood Tom going north of their. ISO SAD.
 
Re: Boston is better than NYC!!!

I'm still too shocked to be sad. Screw Sanchez. USC quarterbacks are dirty, awful people who probably hate most kittens. Except Matt Cassel. He was lucky enough to not start his first few years, learn under the glorious Tom Brady, and taste a bit of Ol' School New England Humble Pie.

NYC sports definitiely have nothing on Boston.
 
Re: Boston is better than NYC!!!

I personally couldn't give a shit about sports. NYC is lame because it has an army of douchebags like this guy...

Re: Boston is better than NYC!!!

I can imagine him facing off against Menino in "Tool Academy."
 
Re: Boston is better than NYC!!!

It's true, everyone in NYC is just like that.
 
Re: Boston is better than NYC!!!

I don't think I could ever live in NYC. Not because I hate it or anything. I just think it's too overwhelming. There're too many things happening at once.
 
Re: Boston is better than NYC!!!

I would eat 99cent pizza every day
 
Re: Boston is better than NYC!!!

All the men would sound like Al Michaels. And the women like Bella Abzug. Or perhaps Mariah Carey.
