It's just an older city that's not really being like updated and improved. A lot of abandoned buildings and homes, it's not really a tourism city (how often do you hear "wow I really wanna visit Cleveland!"), east Cleveland's terrifying, however the theater district's nice and there's a couple nice museums, the rock and roll hall of fame's also there, the Cleveland Clinic, and there's a really nice park system. Cleveland's apart of the rust belt, new jobs aren't coming in, it's just not doing as well as other cities.

 

Indianapolis from what I've seen is nice though. (I've only driven through it a couple times) It seems newer and well kept. There seems to be more going on there too. I've heard the Indianapolis 500's apparently really big but other than that I don't really know what's there. 

 

As for the weather, yeah I would've never expected it to be like that here. It also gets about 10*F - 15*F hotter than Cleveland here in the summer. I just never thought it got this cold this far... well not south but I thought it only got this cold in the upper states and in Canada so it was a huge shock haha

Was there a sports team there? One of my sports-fanatic teachers always talked about it, so I thought it was more like on of the bigger cities. Then again, I'm more accustomed to suburban life and the cities I'm used to (like NYC or DC) have a pretty big reputation to keep, so I'd expect more. The only less kept city I've seen is Atlanta, but it wasn't that all that bad either. I'm guessing East Cleveland is like the scarier part of cities? I'm already terrified of walking in any city at night, so I can't imagine what it'd be like to go through a bad neighborhood.

State capitols are always fun to go to (though I don't like mine). Haha, I'm all for temperate places, but that's a pretty big change xD

Sports team in Cleveland? There's the Cleveland Indians, Browns, and Cavaliers (baseball, football, and basketball respectively). I doubt he was referring to the hockey team but on the off chance he was there's also the Lake Eerie Monsters. Cleveland's a somewhat big city though, it's just not what it used to be. I didn't keep up much with the sports teams but from what I understand they were average, not necessarily good or bad. And yeah east Cleveland's pretty bad, most of the crime you'd hear on the news would be on that side of town. It's the kinda place you never see people walking around on the sidewalks, you get nervous if the light takes too long to change, and you double check to make sure your car doors are locked. Fortunately I never had much of a reason to go over there. The west side's pretty nice though I may be biased haha

I've been to quite a few cities (Boston, NYC, Charleston, San Diego, Detroit, and Lexington to name a few) and Cleveland definitely pales in comparison. Cleveland's not a bad city, it certainly has some really nice aspects. It's just the cons outweigh the pros by quite a bit. 

The few state capitols I've seen a nice though. I've somehow never been to Columbus Ohio though.

 

And yeah, I feel like I didn't appreciate Cleveland weather until I moved haha. Sure the weather may be a little unpredictable there but at least it never stayed below 20*F for long periods of time

Let's just hope they weren't joking about joking about stalking our posts.

I read through the "What Was the Last Video Game You Played" thread. I learned a lot :twisted:

But that's it.

Haha, I have no idea. I don't follow sports either, so something like this would've easily slipped from my mind.

Gosh, that sounds really scary. Where I was born, night markets were part of the culture, so a bunch of people ranging from all ages, male or female, would be able to walk around and not be afraid. Now, I don't have to worry about safety either since it's a pretty good town.

Haha, I know I've been to a lot of cities, especially along the east coast, but I can't remember anything about them //shot. I guess another pro would be the lack of tourists. I prefer nice and comfy over bustling.

Why not? It's your own state xD

I have no intention of shipping two random internet people, but it's funny xD

:P Yeah.

Anyways, I was already onto both of them since the beginning, when they were both posting in the 'What was the last video game you played?" thingy. xD They really have some serious convo going on there :P

ME TOO! High five! I read the whole thing (except for the the video game parts). I'm currently going through Akazora's statuses. I have no idea what his name is though ;A;

It's a really interesting thing. You learn a LOT. Haha, I'm probably scaring them into moving everything into PMs.

Uh huh. Not Julius or anything :P
