Culture drain.


The ones who left, even as close to home as Metairie, didn't 'get it' and don't 'get it'. That or they were just too poor to live where they wanted to live - like me.

You can embrace culture all you want, but unless it is a part of who you are, you're just part of the culture drain. Out of staters, no matter how much they love New Orleans, aren't from New Orleans and any addition to our culture takes away from something authentically New Orleans. We were a city of immigrants looking for hard labor. Now we're a city of poor, the inherited wealthy, and chic out of town do gooders who think New Orleans is as authentic as a meal at Jacque Imos and music at Red Maple.

Ah that's blooper whale ships, Gastown. The move to Metairie didnt have nothing to do with "not getting it" (whateva da fudge that means). It had to do with gettin a reasonable house that wasn't a piece of ship dilapidated shotgun. Try raisin' a five or six person family in a half of a double. Then you'll know why Metry grew.

Get over the provincial bullshite. It took me a long time and I have finally seen the light. Young and talented people want to move here. Accept and embrace that ideal.

I can promise my provincialty is off the charts and it has cost the city dearly the last forty to fifty years. Get your head out of the sand and embrace a new city.

I dont even care about the food, any beer for $2 for 18 oz is worthwhile.
