Gloomy Sunday

I have a theory...people from the Northeast may get mad...

Boston is grey again today for about the 10th day in a row...completely depressing. The people are generally bitter and somewhat rude, and its rare that I seem someone who is very attractive. A friend of mine called them "grommet" people and its the perfect word. Just generally pissed off and unfriendly...perhaps because of the miserable weather and cramped conditions.

So why is it that people in California and Texas are so much better looking and friendlier, nicer, etc?

My theory is that when America was settled, the adventurous and cool people left the Northeast in search of something better- new frontiers. The boring, grommet-like, unimaginative ones stayed- thus their descendants are the grommet people we find here today. The pioneers all went west, perhaps this has something to do with natural selection...but without the less talented dying off- a kind of natural selection where the best and brightest moved on and the ones who could barely survive stayed and got more and more grommet-like over the years.

Thoughts?
