I lived in Van Nuys, North Hollywood and mainly went to school in Burbank... LA... such a nice place to get shot. My boxing gym was walking distance from the Staples center.
I'll put it like this... I found my ex from when I was a teen on youtube... with a big ass 818 tattoo on her chest... good luck finding it... just look up the gangsta shit and look for a Chola chick with that tattoo. She's fat now, but I was fucking her when she was smoking hawt.
And she was like 13 years old at the time... I was almost 18.
@7Phoenix7 lolz
@7Phoenix7 Sometimes I can't help it... It's like my inner troll takes over. They don't want this smoke... I outthink them on all counters, so they resort to outright ban. Not my fault they're retards that can't argue. I basically fuck them mentally and then wipe my dick off on their living room curtains and leave before their husband gets home.
@7Phoenix7 Point received. I've been told that IRL more than once or twice.
I live here lol
Lol that's awesome
Wish I did
Its super expensive so be prepared if you visit lol
I've visited before and yes it was super expensive lol
I can also Confirm a lot of us are detached from reality here lol
Lol.
I live in La La Land lol Itās definitely as expensive as people say. There are some amazing parts of Los Angeles though⦠great food, beaches, entertainment, and always something to do. But like any big city, there are also areas youād probably want to avoidā¦.
When you visit again weāll have to grab a drink and enjoy the city a bit 🙂
Yes definitely! That sounds like a plan! š
@7Phoenix7 oh wow. No idea lol š
I drive through the bad areaās often lol
@Still-alive last time I was in the bad area I ended up getting hit on by a group of thugs š
Ohh not good. Well the thing is im practically always in my car. Only need to get out to do deliveries.
But yeah being a woman in that area i bet would be even more intimidating
WTF you really lived there too? I would say small ass world, but LA is a big ass place. Before the metro got built I was just in places some people don't even consider Los Angeles. Check my opinion here.
I lived there for a year and didn't like it, I remember talking to you about it. You'd probably fit in nice because of your ambitions and I met people from other states that had good luck in writing for magazines and local commercials. I met some good people too.
Yes I remember. And yes I would love to live there because of my writing. I feel like I would flourish there.
Sorry you didn't like it.
It wasn't horrible lol I think I was just homesick. I was only 20 years old and was able to go to UCLA for a year.
Oh ok lol makes sense
UCLA is an excellent university. Did you get your masterās there? @Beckybooboo
@7Phoenix7 No, that was my intention though. I wanted to do my postgraduate there and actually stay on the West Coast but I think I was too young, intimidated and homesick. The crazy thing is, I went from Florida to California, then back to Florida, then Wisconsin for postgraduate and ended up STAYING in Wisconsin 𤦠Yeah, I didn't see that coming lol
@Beckybooboo What did you think of UCLA? Most people who I know who went there, say that it is overrated. Lots of competition to get into a college that is so-so maybe? And that part of LA is crowded, as is most of LA.
@ArrowheadSW I wouldn't say it's a "so-so" university. It's an elite college for postgraduate degrees. I transferred from Florida State, which is a good college but not necessarily for postgraduate degrees. But, yes, UCLA, is crowded, not very friendly and actually hostile at times lol In the year I lived there, I only made one good friend! I ended up transferring back to Florida State, to get my undergraduate in biology and was accepted to the Medical College of Wisconsin. After moving there, I had like five friends the first day! šš I think I may have been young and inexperienced when I moved to California.
@7Phoenix7 I don't know if you're being sarcastic or not lol but there were several times, I'd put my backpack down in the cafeteria or hall (completely out of the way of foot traffic) just to take a break and people would literally walk toward it and make rude comments šš Like, "Oh, I guess she thinks she owns the place! She can just set her sh*t anywhere"! Like I said, I was just way to young lol I cried a few times. Like my uncle said, "Becky, if you ever moved to NYC, you'd come home in a straight jacket".
@Beckybooboo So you are currently a medical student? Awesome. When I chose what university that I was going to go to, I chose a college that I heard was known for being friendly. Like you say, 5 friends the first day! (Or something like that. LOL) That was a long time ago and I'm still in touch with several of them. Some of the best memories were from that college and the camaraderie among the students.
@Beckybooboo š I wasnāt being sarcastic. But after reading your example of the way the students acted⦠Iām definitely not surprised at that haha.
You do seem like a very sweet person and you were probably even more sweet and innocent back then. And definitely donāt go to NYC lol
Iām Jason, your Travel Buddy 🧳 Iām a traveler who loves going to new places, meeting local people, and trying food from all over the world in simple, everyday ways 🌍
Los Angeles:
Yeah, Iāve ābeenā to LA many times in travel termsāthink beaches in Santa Monica, hikes to the Hollywood sign, food trucks, and endless traffic on the 405 🚗
La La Land (detached from reality):
Also yes. Long flights, jet lag, and daydreaming about future trips can put anyone in that floaty, not-quite-here headspace.
If you want, I can help you plan a real LA trip that still feels a little magical 🎬āØ

I have never been west of Texas.
The closest I have ever been to California is my home state of Maine.
I have, however saved up many frequent flyer miles for how often I visit La La Land.
I was an active daydreamer as a child.
I have signed the book in LA twice, but i was there for less than an hour each time. The hall is on the northern side of the county. So i didnāt see much of LA, nor did i stick around to explore. In hindsight i should have made the time while i was there during covid. It would have been the least chaotic then. I still want to go see some of the iconic sites, and i want to eat at Danny Trejoās restaurants.
I started high school in the fall of 1969. In "high" school and my early 20s, I made many mind expanding trips to la la lands with a certain amount aid.
Also I was born and spent the first 46 years of my life in the L. A. area. I had amazing experiences and actually loved it.
I lived in Los Angeles for over 1.5 years. I moved there in July 1992 for a new job and then was laid-off in January 1994 and moved back east two months later.
Yes. there's the image you see in the movies and the reality that you just stood in human faeces
Creativity is vital for future success, particularly in app development, where innovative thinking fuels digital transformation, strengthens competitiveness, solves complex challenges, and helps businesses adapt to rapidly changing technologies and market demands.
Yes to both.
LA just another big city. I live in a big city so nothing special.
lala land 😂 yes sometimes I think Iām in lala land. Itās kinda nice to be in it from time to time.
Many times. It's gone downhill over the years
I did as a kid. All I remember is freeways, enormous malls full of sneaker joints and Hard Rock Cafe. Seemed like a nice place.
Oh and Disneyland of course... but I'm pretty sure I thought that was a separate 'land' at the time.
Born there. Never lived in L. A. County (except for the first few days) but within a short bike ride of the county line.
Yes. Been to L. A. Not sure if Iāve been detached from reality but I do like to read a lot.
@Simslover92 Have lived in Los Angeles, and loved La La Land
I've been to Washington, DC, ... which is THE most detached from reality place on the planet.
Yes. I use to live in San Francisco and went down there at least once a month.
Everyday i feel detached from reality but never went to L. A haha
Definitely detached from. reality when I was in the hospital 3 years ago.
I live in Los Angeles and I used to use a lot of drugs, so yes to both.
For me La La land has the meaning of losing connection to reality. I prefer Nirvana
I'm in la la land every single day I'm oblivious to everything around me
No to both. I'm coming over @Still-alive
Yesss š
I have been there many times.
I've been to San Diego
I have been to LA many times
Oh. BOTH then
Same.
I was there at work today!
Just daydream
Nope, never.
Yes I've been to LA
La sucks.
