Dave Winer, Fuck You
Maybe if you devoted half of your whining energy to doing a modicum of research on this thing called the ‘internet’ you might not be so miserable.
Go back to the hole you crawled out of, no gives a fuck that YOU chose a shitty hotel.
Not even Doc has your back on this one…

As one who has recently moved from Northern to Southern CA (from San Jose Metro area to Orange County – Fullerton area) I was one of those in the North who had an attitude about Southern California (as does my Mother and siblings).
After living down here (although I am in Bay Area this weekend and will be back next weekend in Bay Area again) I am fully adjusting to living in SoCal. I view it like living in a very very large San Francisco (the town, not the area). There are MANY MANY nice places all over LA and Orange counties, and one can EASILY find nice places to stay for low cost in SoCal.
Yes roads are crammed, but the weather is great. Yes traffic sucks, but the people are nice.
Yes the commute times suck, but there are so MANY things to do in SoCal (you name it, its here….from family friendly to the er, well….the other things)
Do I feel more comfortable in NorCal, OF COURSE !, but that does NOT mean SoCal in any way is a horrible place.
Now if I had to live in Colorado Springs I think life would suck, no sun, no beach, and no fun…….
Sorry Mr Winer, you need to prepare for your trips MUCH better in the future ! – Dont blame a few million people because of your lack of planning !

Dude needs to stop hanging out with jackasses like Arianna Huffington and Joe Trippi.
I mean seriously…
Amen, brother.
Worst part was, Winder was gratuitously name-dropping trying to impress the blogosphere with whom he’s meeting…when it has no relevance to anything. Asswipe.
Maybe it’s good that someone doesn’t like LA.
We could use a few less people.
Maybe if Dave Winer liked it he would move here.
It’s all how we look at it. 🙂
People forget that when they insult our city, they are talking about our home. It makes me mad too.
Interesting.
Mr. W has been here in Seattle for the past few months. I have no idea what he’s been saying about us and I really couldn’t care less. In fact I’ve given up reading the local blogs who got right in there and smooched his butt.
My blood pressure is bad enough as it is.
LA is a world city, more importantly for all of us on the Left Coast it is our world city. My wife was born there and every time we visit there is always a building or a view that brings out the Raymond Chandler quotes from the deep recesses of my memory.
Wow! Winer’s whine has really touched a nerve, hasn’t it? I don’t get it. Mebbe it’s because I’ve lived in so many different cities and states in my adult life, but I really don’t understand why it matters worth a damn what someone else thinks of the place you choose to call home. To thine own self be true, sez I (actually, I think someone else might have said it first).
Hookers??? wtf
Dave buddy, get a clue man. I had a great visit to LA just two months ago. I don’t _prefer_ the west coast, I’m not NEARLY fabulous enough to even look vaguely as if i _belong_ in LA, and still i had a fine time. No hookers, no cockroaches. Even the crappy conference hotel near the airport was manageable, though things improved considerably when i transferred to my hotel of preference in WeHo.
Sounds like crappy planning and a lot of hyperbole to make an entertaining story. But it’s not really all that entertaining, just kinda pathetic. Next time, stay in Cambridge and talk real rude and loudly to the schmucks from your overpriced cellphone at the 1369 Coffeehouse or Carberry’s.
And if it’s hookers you’re looking for, just keep chatting up the pretty interns. Eventually one will fall for your daddy act.
PS Did Harvard Law pay for your trip? Last time I saw you, you were bragging about how much money you made selling that west coast house, then you asked everyone to chip in to pay for dinner cuz you were broke.
