9 out of 11 from Virginia, Florida, or Connecticut? NO California? New York?… surprising
And I still cant pay my gas bill on line. Nor my property taxes. Nor my parking tickets…
Hmmm.
It’s not sad that C-ville lost to Lynchburg, a lot of people who are from Charlottesville have moved to Lynchburg to get away from ridiculous real estate prices and overcrowding! Lynchburg is up and coming, cheap, and full of possibilites. Come check it out.
My grandparents on Jupiter Island, FL totally took a computer class and now email me regularly. Scary.
How can you not pay your gas bill online? Doesn’t everyone who lives in the city have the same gas supplier (the city)?
I think I’ll avoid Lynchburg as long as Liberty is there.
Ethan, open your mind bro. So what Liberty’s in Lynchburg, it’s far away from downtown and the liberty kids are the most naughty! Do you avoid a town because of one little christian college, c’mon you’re tougher than that.
Caroline are you a real estate agent?
she’s probably right about Liberty kids - my first college was a very small, *extremely* southern baptist school. A dry school in the middle of a dry county. The year before I started going there it made Playboy’s top 5 small party schools…
It was still pretty icky, though. Having someone knock on your door at 8am on Saturday - when it’s hard to tell if you’re hungover or still drunk - to ask you to get on your knees and find Jesus (”What? Is that motherfucker lost AGAIN?” - my usual response) was a bit much.
Hilarious! I’ve dated a couple of guys who went from hard-core Christian conservative to hard-core not. One even went to seminary at Columbia. Didn’t quite have the steady-job thing going on, and also… had two girlfriends. (Hi!) But he still had that smart/hot/nice combo I like, and it didn’t last. This wasn’t in Charlottesville.
Did I mention that I’m single and unattached? 1 out of 3 ain’t bad, is it?
(I’m a smokin’ hot asshole-retard)
Cue the 100th story in the The Hook about how up and coming Lynchburg is in 5, 4, 3, 2….
Seriously, the publisher has got to own real estate down there.
