ann arbor is overrated.

It seems that Ann Arbor Sucks is not alone in all-consuming, website-inspiring hate for a Michigan town. LansingSucks.com could give this blog a run for its money. But Stevyn’s a little more sanguine about the cowtown he calls home. “While Lansing may suck, it doesn’t suck entirely,” he admits. Stevyn, Stevyn - be strong. Got to keep up the hate.

Of course, as the Magnetic Fields once sang, “Be we in Paris or in Lansing/Nothing matters when we’re dancing.”

LansingSucks also manages to get in a little dig at the expense of A-squared. The Damn Site Inn, in Hell, Michigan, he reports, is raising its prices and becoming a bit more upmarket. To blame? The “uppity Ann Arbor influence.”

But at the moment, the thing that sucks most about Lansing - and Ann Arbor - is contained in a little box at the top of the page. “7 degrees,” it reads.
