Cold Climate Catatonia

Someone published a 1 hour 'walking video' of Vancouver on YouTube  It's a piece of lying-piece-of-shit advertising showing a city without homeless people, without garbage on the streets, and without excessive traffic noise and entirely siren-free.  Speaking of which,  parts of this must have been filmed at 8 am on January 1st, because the very small number of cars and the VERY quiet background noise are so uncharacteristic of Vancouver.

I have NO idea why this picture is here 

Anyhoo, what I found interesting was NOT the stupid video per se, but one of the earliest comments left by a reader.

Vancouver is a cold rainy ugly dump with a miserable population.  WTF?

NO, I swear, it wasn't me ;-)

What might be the most telling aspect of this about Vancouver is the reply to that criticizing comment:  A passive aggressive attack on the original poster without even touching the issue at hand.  How typical is that of the citizens of this GREENEST city on the planet (they MUST mean the $20 bills or all the pot being smoked, it just is IMPOSSIBLE that anyone could even consider the environmental connotation for this ugly dump !

Half an hour later, I stumble upon this line in a KO song:

You gotta go south where the air's a little better, son, where you can learn how to breathe.
