ann arbor is overrated.

Despite an overreliance on scatological metaphors and some disturbing violent tendencies, this zinester gets it more or less right about A2:

But if rich over educated hippies are what you hate, take a little ride to one of the shittiest places in the world, Ann Arbor. It’s impossible to decide who sucks more the frat boy jock assholes, or the greasy, hippy, stupid hat wearing punk retards who make up the so called underground scene…I don’t care that the Stooges or the MC5 took shits there a million years ago, You’d have to go to San Francisco to find music worse than what comes from here. It’s hard to describe the Ann Arbor sound, except to say the only truly happy Ann Arborites are the deaf ones.

Talk About Town has been offline for two weeks as of today. As James Taranto would say, We Get Results. Hmm, is this a plot to boost circulation by getting us to buy the News on Wednesdays and Sundays?
