FUN FACT: If this forecast holds, the daytime temperatures Boston this weekend will be roughly same as those on Mars, specifically Gale Crater where the Curiosity rover is operating.

I also hear there's less traffic up there and rent is much much lower, but the social life sucks.

I bet there's just as many good nightclubs though!

Why is nothing open past midnight on Mars?!?

Seriously, what if you need emergency Pedialyte? I tell ya, Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids.
meatfrappe t1_j6dguzk wrote
Some places are open 24 hours, but it's really inconvenient if you show up during the 37 minutes they're closed.

In fact, it’s cold as hell.

Commute times are about the same as coming from Braintree though.

Less traffic, but the commute still sucks, and it's pretty much all tech bros up there.

It’s becoming too gentrified there

When those yuppie Greeshnaks started moving in, bringing their hot zzzzllxxy studios and artisanal free-range latte stores to the neighborhood, it’s not as gritty or coarse as it used to be. Multi family cave prices shot up all over. Real shame.

Have you even looked into the moving costs?!?!

Did you hear about the restaurant on the moon? The food is great but there's no atmosphere.

Mars can be quite nice. It's the damn Martians though...they make us Massholes look downright civil.

I mean... The lows in Boston would be similar to the highs on Mars.

No, the highs will be similar to the highs. If you click the link you'll see that Mars' highs have been 10° F to 5° F over the last few days.

But the low is -105⁰F on Mars.
meatfrappe t1_j6d38jw wrote
Right. Which is why I am comparing the daytime temperatures (highs) at each location. I am not talking about the lows.
