I don’t think about you at all.

We assume your fear of gluten is so severe that we carry bagels to use in robbing Angelinos.

Why would anyone set themselves up like this

They don't. For real. They barely think of Staten Island. L.A. is simply off the map.

The best way I’ve seen it said is that LA people are nice but not kind and NYers are kind but not nice.

I am uncertain as to whom you are referring...

DGAF. Everything west of New Jersey doesn't exist. We only accept that New Jersey exists because we need something to collectively hate.

I didn’t even know that’s how people from LA refer to themselves until now. r/todayilearned

I think there's a stereotype that LA people tend to be more superficial and fake, whereas New Yorkers are more straight forward and genuine. There might be some truth in the stereotypes, but it probably doesn't apply to the majority. Plenty of New Yorkers move to LA and vice versa.

Tbh I don’t think most of us in nyc spend much time opining about people and places outside of the microcosm that we exist in, and in moments like this where it comes up, many of our opinions are not much more than “oh yeah, that exists”

I think more about the street rats than Angelinos.

Whenever I have to go to southern CA for work I feel like I'm visiting an alien planet.

All I know is one of my best friends and ex roommates is from LA, and he mentions me being from New York wayyy more than I've ever mentioned him being from LA. The only time I've mentioned LA is if I'm visiting and I'm looking for restaurant recommendations or we're making plans. It always felt as a New Yorker I was the butt of random, "oh iliveoffofbagels probably doesn't like the pizza.... oh he probably despises these bagels..." type of jokes.

California is the only place I feel truly comfortable outside of the Northeast. Part of me would love to live in LA, but it's so spread out and the thought of needing a car to get places is miserable.

what the hell is an angelino

LA?

you're a Californian.

no one calls people in NYC "yorkinos", they're new yorkers.

My experience with Angelinos is that they’re more self-obsessed than people from other cities. This post supports that stereotype.

Die-Nacht t1_j8pll6j wrote

Never been.

The only thing I know about LA is that several ppl, who lived in LA and left it, have told me something like this:

"LA has the worst parts of city living. High density but no way to move around that isn't a car, so horrible traffic you can't escape."

Idk how true it is, but I know LA traffic is "notorious".

Funny how so many people associating themselves with such a worldly and eclectic city as NYC pride themselves on their own ignorance of other places and lifestyles.

Replying to Die-Nacht (#1,825,017)

Can confirm. Lived out in LA for three months doing HVAC and water damage repair.

Fucking traffic was unbelievably horrible.

That’s being said:

No better scenic stretch of Highway than the PCH

I’ll give them that.

Basically think they’re chumps, living in a crummy “city” that will be unliveable in 50 years. Good food though at least.

And at my eastern liberal arts college the most insufferable hipsters were from LA.

We think about them so little that many of us didn’t know who you were referring to. I’ve never even considered what people from LA called themselves.
