explain why you think it fits that certain city..like
los angeles - leo
because of hollywood, of course
miami - pisces
it's way down at the bottom of the country, and its surrounded by water
chicago - capricorn
cold, hard working , traditional type of city
Las Vegas - Sagittarius, a good place to piss away your life savings gambling thinking that you're more lucky than you really are, plus hookers, a libertarian city IOW.
Yeah, I'd say Chicago is more Geminian. It's the windy city after all.
New York- Aries, because it has that whole "speak your mind,who gives a shit feel" and somewhere in between a good romp or love story comes out of the deal! lol
NYC- Aquarius.
Eccentric, arrogant, and stubborn.
yawn...

boring and totally unoriginal considering this topic has already been started and finished..

thanks for your valuable imput, fag of the universe
thanks for completey jacking my topic, sperm filled cranuim iv...
Washington DC is Cancer. America is a Cancer.
Chicago is full of fake ass hipsters in general, I would not say Capricorn.
Then again, Capricorn love titles, and fake status, so perhaps... I can't think of something that better fits it.
I think Rome is obviously Virgo. Playing up it's culture and value, with a hypocritical pious center, while some vary serious debauchery is going on at night...but all the while super busy and bustling with a 24/7 work ethic.

"hipsters"??? wtf is that?..shit sounds corny
and chicago is as real as it gets..you probably from a small no name town and can't deal with the city life anyway..
and lol@ rome being virgo,please..virgo = cleveland, or omaha at best..
Chicago is all about people styling.
They take West and East style s and play them out.
In Chicago a common term is, 'doing the most.' As if working 'too hard' is a bad thing.
This is why Chicago will never be Capricorn.
I am from Saint Louis, and we don't have this phrase.
In New York, or STL, being afraid of working too hard is a bad thing.

we definetly don't have a west coast style ..if anything,saint louis bit the west coast because ya'll got bloods and crips in your city, we don't..
and the east coast is where most of the clothing lines come from, so of course we may wear what they wear, but we got our own style too..150 hats, pelle leathers,etc..we got our on lingo too, we don't sound like east coast cats..but u stl cats don't know if u from the midwest or down south..
Never-Neverland = Pisces!
I have a vacation home there. smile
[quote]but u stl cats don't know if u from the midwest or down south..[/quote]
This is true. That's what makes our city unique, it's midwestern and southern, and we've got some great french and spanish architectural influence. It's limited as far as people save for everyone being catholic and a bunch of ppl with french last names.
We also have some neighborhood talk that is why thicker and more unique than Chicago talk.
Of course we shake that when we move to other cities, but, Chicago ppl can always tell when someone is from STL.
new orleans - scorpio
sexy type of city, and dangerous

LOL, please. The fact that so many Chicagoans feel a need to talk down to everywhere with a smaller population is only further proof of its pathetic "we wanna be New York" inferiority complex. To make matters worse, gentrification has forced a lot of Chicagoans to migrate to other nearby cities like St. Louis, Milwaukee and Indianapolis which are now themselves firmly entrenched with the aforementioned Chicago clique mentality. If ever there was a city that just needed to grow the fuck up......
Berkeley is near the ocean and known as "ten square miles surrounded by reality." Sounds like a Pisces city to me!

if you ever been to chicago, you'd know the we don't act ANYTHING like new yorkers..other cities around the east coast may have nyc type attitudes thou..
and we clique up because we relate to each other more so then anybody else..small towns is boring as hell and can't compare to my city, so of course we may look down on you..don't take it too personal thou, thats just how we are
I agree, the city I live in sucks... did I mention I stay in Lincoln Park? Big Grin
For a city of 3 million people Chicago is fucking BORING!!! That's probably why so many people here think going to WISCONSIN is a vacation (which begs the question of why, if small towns are so boring, can Chicago people not seem to stop visiting them?). Downtown is dead by 8PM and aside from there and the lakefront, the entire town is a depressing dump full of drug addicts, alcoholics and battered women. I'm so glad that in less than 6 months I'll be in San Francisco which, despite being much smaller is more cultured and has a better quality of life than Chicago can EVER hope to have. That's because unlike Chicago, San Francisco has progressive-minded people who actually get off their ass and do something. Chicago is a bunch of yuppies who claim to be so liberal and open-minded, yet are scared of anyone darker than a paper bag (even the yuppies who are themselves Black or Latino!). Race relations in Chicago are stuck in the 1950s and that's why it's the most segregated city in the country.
I will agree with you on one thing though... Chicagoans definitely don't act like New Yorkers. They act like the stereotype of what everyone THINKS New Yorkers are like. I stopped going to clubs because I got tired of seeing a bunch of 'roided up douchebags slugging it out Jersey Shore style or even pulling guns on each other when I was just trying to have a good time. In fact, if I ever come back to the Midwest (not damn likely!) I'm going to Minneapolis or Milwaukee because I can't think of a single thing in Chicago that I couldn't do in either one of those places for less money... which only brings to mind another example of how Chicago's pathetically juvenile mentality... the idea that expensive = good. It doesn't! That's why there's so many wealthy businessmen in Chicago... they know you're gullible enough to pay out the ass for complete crap!
Oh well, you can keep being cliquish well into your 40s and think that shit is cute, but I'm not even out of my 20s and I'm already too old for that shit... enjoy dodging the crackheads on every other corner during your cold ass winters!
Damn, that felt good! Big Grin

^^ hahaha Big Grin ten square miles surronded by reality


Yea... that was the first thing that came to mind when I saw this lol
FWIW though, I don't think that's entirely accurate. It's just part of the "hippie liberal activist" stereotype of Berkeley that refuses to die. Yes, Berkeley has those types, but no more than what you'd find in any major college town. In fact, UC has one of the largest chapters of College Republicans in the country.
If you ask me, "X square miles surrounded by reality" is a better description of Orange County, but the OC lacks the free-spiritedness that's so key to the Pisces personality.
lol@ san fran being more cultured than chicago..you GOTTA be joking..not only are we more cultured, but we have better architecture, better resturants, better museums, and just overall better people than san fran..but if you love being around a bunch of gay folks, then i guess san fran is the place for you..hope have fun getting your asshole torn apart
and i assume you're probably an oddball anyway, and was shunned by us chicagoans..i understand
Gay jokes about San Fran... gee, haven't heard one of THOSE before. And then you admit to Chicago being a place that "shuns oddballs"... you do realize all these things are characteristic of small towns and completely contradicts your claim that Chicago is a cultured, cosmopolitan paradise, right?
Chicago has better architecture than San Francisco? ARE YOU SERIOUS?!? San Francisco is one of the most architecturally renowned places in the entire world. Of course, I'm guessing you're one of the many Chicago people who doesn't actually understand architecture and think "good architecture" just means having a bunch of tall buildings.
Since you sound pretty young, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume your POV is due to immaturity than anything else. But know that because of Chicago's cliquish nature, all of the important decisions in this city are made by an exclusive group of old white men and the first two don't apply to you (I'm assuming you're not white because there's not a whole lot of white dudes in the 100's). It's probably best for you to stop sippin' the Daley family kool-aid at a younger age so you can leave Chicago and actually accomplish something in this life.
so being "odd" = "cultured" now?? lol
and trust me, if i didn't know the meaning of architecture, i wouldn't have even mentioned it..but really its all a matter of opinion as to which city is better, but i can safely say that the majority would choose chicago over san fran..
and name 1 major city (thats doing well financially) in the U.S that isn't ran by old white folks..i don't see how that had anything to do with anything..like you said, the city is segregated, and the reason why us blacks cliqued up was because of how these white people in the city acted towards us back in the day..but i don't really care, because i was raised in rogers park where i got a chance to live around every ethnic background you can imagine..and at the end of the day, none of that shit matters, because the onlything i got out of living around different people was eating different food..wow
and why are u telling me to leave the city, but yet, you moved here yourself? just because you're not built for the chi life, doesn't mean im not..im doing quite well


Being open to accepting people of diverse backgrounds, cultures and philosophies is what makes somewhere cosmopolitan.
I only moved to Chicago because I got hired to write for a local weekly and it was the first chance I had to actually use my degree for something other than free-lance work, but the paper folded not even two months after I arrived. I might have been willing to gut it out until I found something else to do, but the Chicago attitude got old REAL quick... everyone has their lil crew who they've probably known since high school (if not sooner) gassin' them up into thinking they're someone too important to give common respect to someone outside their group. There's a reason Kanye called Chicago the city of haters.
To answer your question... Atlanta, Georgia and PG County, Maryland are both more/less run by blacks and doing very well financially.
The reason I said you should move is so that maybe you'll see how backwards Chicago is since I wouldn't expect someone who grew up immersed in it to understand that it's not normal for an entire city... especially one the size of Chicago... to be like that. But then, ignorance is bliss and if being in that environment really makes you happy, then far be it of me to tell you otherwise. Just don't act like something is wrong with those who aren't willing to put up with it because that only marks you as someone whose naive and living in a bubble.
CANCER- Maine.. because its cool, and warma nd cozy in the winter.. small town, near an ocean. beautiful trees and nice people. LOVE MAINE!!!
