    You know, as someone that’s live on both coasts for extended periods of time, that’s exactly right. I’ve never been able to explain it but that’s spot on. Thanks!!

        Between kind and polite I’d always choose kind. Actually helping is much better than sugar coating every interaction with nothing to back that up. Empty politeness is just disgusting IMO, either help and it’s your choice to be nice about it or not. But if you’re gonna pretend to be all friendly and nice and then not ever go beyond that you can go fuck yourself.

        Well, deep down the east coast. But I live in the Salish Sea now and I’m not moving back to Maryland anytime soon, so I make do. It’s beautiful out here and I’m a hermit, it’s not so bad haha.
