What's the east coast like?

Some of the people are nice, but a lot of them are either huge bro's or guidos. Kids talk differently over there too. They think its weird if people say hella, and nobody knows what hyphy means. Instead they say stupid things like wicked. Its fine to visit, but never move there. PNW is way more chill.
 
it really depends where you go. there are a lot of really nice people, but we have snobs too. and the skiing isn't bad, it's a lot better then it gets credit for.
 
im in michigan. most of the people are assholes, but thats mainly because they never went to college and just went to work in the factories. and now their just pissed off.

consider yourself extremely lucky to live by an actual mountain
 
That is such a broad generalization...you're basically taking all of the east coast and calling it New Jersey. Personally, I love the vibe of the EC. I love the people that are here, so down to earth and chill.
 
Amen

I love New York. I love the city (i like an hour away). There so much stuff to do and see. So many different people, and it just gives off this great vibe that. Its not like LA, you don't have rich people rolling around and daddy princes walking around everywhere. It's so much more mixed and so much independence. And i mean its a challenge too. I feel good going to the city because i feel mature, like drivers are absolutely nuts in NYC, and there are some scetchy people

i love leaving NY and going places where people won't cross the street when the sign says stop, even if there aren't cars coming. I find it amusing
 
yeah i agree, the vibe of the east coast is great most of the time. especially in vermont and new hampshire. everyone there is just always stoked to be skiing, especially on awesome days. watch a meathead film and you'll get an idea of how stoked people in the east are to be out there.
 
lol no that would be dirty Jersey. East coast isn't bad. I've been told we are more "busy" more in a rush than people out west.
 
Well yea. More of a rush for sure. I went to Colorado this past winter. Everything flowed nice. Like lift line went fast no one was pushing their way into the front. But granted those a re real mountains. Not hills with only 6 lifts going up.
 
East Coast is mad diverse. each state is different in its own good or bad way. for example, CT is full of cute soccer moms and lame cholos (danbury). Vermont is full of treehugging hippies who essentially believe they are better than the rest of the U.S. for being so loving and shit, it sucks and I hate Vermont. Massachusetts has a bunch of different shit, but EVERYBODY is a red sox fan, which sucks when you grew up a yankees fan and went to school in Mass. New York state is massive and most of it is just woods, except for NYC and Buffalo and places like that, which are dope. Nobody cares about Rhode island. New Hampshire also kinda sucks. I guess this is just new england, not the entire east coast, but if you have a choice don't live here. The skiings not nearly as good as out west, but the bud can be pretty damn good at times. EVERYBODY tailgates here. The seasons are all really different. Summer is hot and buggy, fall is colorful and exciting because everyones stoked for snow, winter is sickkkkkkk up north, mad snow but driving is a bitch, then spring comes and the snow melts way too quickly and everything gets muddy and gross for like 4 weeks, known as "mud season." Usually happens in march/april. Then spring comes and its mad polleny (word?). Allergies are terrible here, everybodys sneezing and its gross. Then summer comes and we all go on vacation because theres nothing to do here but drink and wish we were somewhere else.
sparknotes, east coast is big and different, but if you have a choice, don't live here. just come and shoot some deer and leave, and take us with you.
 
A girl I know is from maryland and she said that she loves Ohio because everyone is super nice.

Sparknotes: Ohioans = Nice, MD = Assholes
 
pretty much what everyone says, no snow just a lot of rain. good cooking in south though, with beaches and whatever.

if you come to VA..i dont recommend lol just for the food though
 
After living in Utah for a year, i could not WAIT to come back to New York. Shits so much more fun here, yeah the skiing isn't nearly as good but i realized there is so much more to life. Way sicker things to do in NY as well. I love it here, utah was kinda beat minus the skiing.
 
im a masshole. its pretty great in the winter but in the summer theres nothing to do! alot of the drivers suck tho
 
I'm going to have to disagree. Respectfully, of course. I don't like NYC. All the people there are dressed up in their business suits and pissed at everyone because they were supposed to be at their meeting five minutes ago. If you want a mixed and independent city, go to San Francisco. I live about an hour away from there and would visit SF a million times before I went back to NYC.

And we say hella, which east coast doesn't have shit on.

West Coast, Best Coast
 
couldnt of said it better myself. I'm stationed in CT now but im from the bronx and moved to Sullivan county, right on yankee lake. Wouldnt want to live in any other state besides ny, but i love going other places.
 
I love the fast paced-ness of NYC though. There's no bullshit

God, i mean you can't drive there unless you know what your doing, or you going to end up dead. Its like a special group of people that can handle NYC. And it makes me feel good to be one of them. I mean like San Fran is a very friendly place for everyone, and NYC is very friendly if you can handle it, haha. like i said, no BS.
 
But, that's what I see as the problem. An elitist city that you have to be "good enough" to even drive there to survive. Why not be laid back? However, in terms of East Coast cities, I'm a fan of DC.
 
driving in nyc is so awsome. there is lik eno rules basically and everyone is just out for themselves and shti almost gets fucked up so much. def gotta know what ur doing to drive in nyc
 
I get that vibe when i go there for sure. Every time I go into the city I just think to myself, "it takes a badass person to live here!" I could never do it.

To the OP, I love it out here. Everyone is friendly and always willing tohelp you out, especially here in Maine. If you live by a lake or something I don't think anywhere can compare. And Biggie was from the East so that helps too!
 
yeah man, nyc has a special breed of people. On base here whenever people go visit nyc they come back for the most part hating it. Besides the special treatment you get if youre in the military. These people from all over the U.S. cant take it for one reason or not. They all prefer boston. Dont get me wrong thats a nice city as well. (just dont tell my ny friends i said that)
 
Cuz it's a good way to filter out worthless people

I'm being sarcastic

but in all seriousness, there are a lot of people who can't handle the city, and its kinda cool like that i think. Its like when gapers go out to sick resorts outwest and fall on the lift lines

If you treated it like NYC, they would be shot in the face and things would move much smoother and better for the real skiers
 
Boston is like diet new york. Everything is basically the same, only on a smaller scale because boston is....well, smaller. People are still rushed, it's even more confusing to get around unless you know it well, and we are probably the best drivers that people think are horrible. Common courtesy, kindness, and right of way are nonexistent features of boston driving.
 
first off dude the majority people areound here are spoiled rich kids who's moms dont work and have a babysitter and cleaning lady while they drive around in there surburbans ( im a round an hour north of the city too) the city yea its fast pase i not a huge fan of it, there is so much to do but after a while i fing if very repetitive, i personally love the vibe of the west much more, or even areas like burlington, i know you were being sarcastice but no one would get shot in the face, often time people have a very different conotation of the city becasue of how people talk about it , its not that hood at all, goin into any good park at a mountain and you will see more hood people than a full day in the city, i mean if you go out to east new york, jamacia some parts of harlem yea it is for sure but the majority of the city isnt bad i live in the woods out in the boonies and i would most likey have a better chance of dying by having a cayote attack me while taking the garbe out then walking threw the majaority of the city at 2 or 3 am.

but back to skiing, you make the best out of what there is souther vt and nh have great parks, central and ^ theres great tree skiing when the snow comes, and all the way up theres more snow than some resorts out west, unlike the west its is allways usually freezing and winds, and for the majority of the season you will have gun blowing snow all day on alot of runs
 
unlike the west everything is small and close together. there are not vast mountain ranges or soaring peaks. rather more rolling hills, and smaller mountains nothing around here gets more than 6,000 ft. Its convenient that you can travel through New England in one day and though it is so close together it is all very diverse. all the cities and towns are very historic and colonial, seeing as the settlers first started out on the east coast. the east is beautiful though it is a different kind of beauty, but I still love it. go to burlington vt and you will see what I mean
 
i think all you'll get from most people on here are sweeping generalizations.

the east coast is like anywhere else. There are rich people, there are poor people just like any other region.

one thing i have heard actually is that we overall ski in colder weather than people out west, just because it gets colder and windier in general. I have no idea how true that it is though. But i know for sure that i have spent some very cold days on top of Jay amongst others.
 
Your from Pawling? im from Chappaqua, haha

But what i mean is that, for example, if people were to treat newb on a ski mountain like new yorkers treated newbs in the city, it would be like people who fall on lift lines get the shit beaten out of them. Like slow drivers or really bad drivers get honked and in car accidents a lot.

I'm not saying its hood when i say shit in the face, haha. There are lots of places in NYC that arent hood what so ever. I mean there are even some great neighbor hoods where most people are black. I ate at Sylvias once on 125th streets, its a like legit fried chicken and collard greens famous resturant, and it was very safe, haha
 
yea man u ski at t ridge some time right with ski teem i think i saw it in a thread a while back, but yea i know what you mean, at night 125th scares me i have gotten off there to go to yankee games and hop on the subway

yo i go to manhattanville college which is pretty close to chappaqua and im allways lookin for people to do urbans with around here if u ever wana
 
Shut yo mouf!

Vermont only sucks because rich people move here from Mass, New York, and Connecticut and fuck it up. Our farms are being bought and turned into starter castles and huge estates. Most Vermonters are down to earth, liberal, except the handful of rednecks, are active politically and environmentally etc.

Vermont > Massachusetts
