    I used to live in an apartment in a city. Not a city with big sky scrapers and ultra compact city blocks, but rather a crowded city with small houses cramped together. I'd rather live with nature with a pickup and a shotgun. Nice and quiet, natural setting, birds singing, no cars, it really makes a difference. I love to shoot too.

      Well I'd rather live in the big city, where 90% of what I need is only a short walk away, so I don't have to depend on a pickup truck and a shotgun to get something to eat. I don't have to pay for gas, because I only use mass transit. I don't have to spend time and money maintaining my house, because I live in an apartment. I'd also like to live near where I work, in an area where I can earn a much larger salary than delivering pizzas. Nature is nice, but right now it's not top priority. Maybe you should get it through your head that there's more than one way to live, and more than one way to think. This whole "Everyone who isn't exactly like me is an evil totalitarian socialist contradiction" is getting really old.

        What motivates me to do what ? To keep pointing out the flaws in your worldview ? Boredom mostly. There was a time when I thought I could help you to get professional help, but I now know you'll never allow yourself to be treated. So, instead, this whole forum is a sideshow, a chance to slum it and see how the other half lives and thinks.

                  :laugh: I used to work in London, I learned to drive (and park) there. These are some of the reasons I live in Wales now! We do have cities in Wales, but we try not to talk about them... In truth, I avoid going to London as I try to avoid going to the dentist. It's dirty, smelly, crowded and expensive.

                      I just have this aversion to paying for someone to cause me pain - I could hit my thumb with a hammer for free if I was into that! :laugh:

                        Well to paraphrase an old master: Parking in London is alot like making love to a beautiful woman. You spend ages looking around for one and when you find it, you block all other contenders, do a complex dance to line yourself up with that hole, go in a bit, out a bit, repeat until your home. And then she takes all your money. Frigging parking charges.
