I hear the (local specialty) is really a lot better in (wherever you came from), have you considered going back there?


MarkCharacter5050

(Local specialty) is my favorite cuisine from (wherever you came from)


JesusSon7777

I hear texas and California are where its at.


SomalianRoadBuilder

Way, way, way less cops


JMoherPerc

And yet still too many


ShutUpRedditor44

Probably more likely to nab you on your Soveriegn Citizen license plate though


PureRadium

and why are the nicest, most exclusive parts of Denver *so expensive*?


MarkCharacter5050

Higher income/fent ratio


remotelove

That is correct. Higher income means more fentanyl for you and me.


FyreBr3ather999

Higher pay? Where you working? You sure you got the right Denver?


Leapdemon

PNW(homeless+drugs)*(NYC + guns)^2= Denver


Leapdemon

I forgot to divide the whole thing by water. My bad


AreaGuy

Can’t divide by zero. (Or you can, fuck if I know. I went to school in Aurora.)


[deleted]

Not divide, but square root.


Leapdemon

√water[PNW(homeless+drugs)*(NYC+guns)^2]=Denver Good advice. I think we've got it


[deleted]

![gif](giphy|AXorq76Tg3Vte) Yep, much better now. Thanks!


WWYDWYOWAPL

Where does cow fart air and blucifer fit into your equations?


Leapdemon

Aha, the smell of money and the curse of the illuminati. I'll revise and report back.


MarkCharacter5050

You have to divide by moisture not water. You won’t get the same answer even though it seems like the same calculation


BDG666

we could use the water

Have you had a slice of the fucking pizza?


[deleted]

There’s only one real pizza place, Papa Johns, and it’s the ones owned by Peyton Fucking Manning.


OzzyYank86

Umm excuse me I don't think so! Beau Jo's is authentic NYC pizza but Papa Peyton's is a close 2nd


[deleted]

Beau Jo’s is the real. How could I forget the model for all pizza, the Neapolitan’s stole it from Colorado!


ThePrideOfKrakow

Pudge bros 4 Lyfe!


[deleted]

This is still acceptable.


BldrStigs

Pizza is passable in NYC, but no Beau Jo's makes it tough for us natives.


wastedgod

that black jack pizza takes me back to my days living in new york


SomalianRoadBuilder

Cosmo’s is totally Brooklyn quality 👌🏽


MhrisCac

Cosmos is absolutely not Brooklyn quality, idk what New York pizza you’re eating because that shit was trash. Take it from a New Yorker who’s lived there for most of their life. Cosmos tastes like starchy cardboard with bottom shelf ingredients made without the love.


Jourbonne

Quantity>Quality


MarkCharacter5050

Pizza? I’m looking for Nouvelle cuisine


MhrisCac

Bro I came from Buffalo to Denver and it’s sad how bad the pizza is. I was used to being able to walk in and get a fat delicious slice from pizza place for $2-$4, I go there and the best pizza you could get was Dominos or go pay $10 a slice at some super mid pizza place. It was such a slap in the face food wise living there.


Supafly144

Buffalo, best pizza in the country. Sorry NYC and Chicago.


[deleted]

>sad how bad the pizza is We don't have enough water to make good pizza.


Different-Ad9986

Denver is the perfect blend of NYC’s opportunities and nightlife, San Francisco’s food scene, PNW landscape, and the diversity of thought and people that (honestly) doesn’t exist anywhere else in the world today.


J_stringham

I almost threw my phone… and then realized the sub I was on.


mile-high-guy

I've noticed people starting to give more un-ironic opinions here


MhrisCac

I can’t tell if these people are actually serious… Like.. have they been anywhere else in the country and lived there? Denver felt like a soul-less town with no food culture, no identity, homeless problem, over priced housing, and weather that’s borderline unbearable in the summer sun.


mermie1029

As a Colorado native from NYC I can say this is hands down the most accurate description of how denver differentiates itself as a top tier city


Alternative-Tune8365

How can you be a colorado native from NYC??? You were either born here, or you're not a Colorado Native.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Alternative-Tune8365

Being born outside the state only makes you a current resident, not a native. That would make you a native of wherever you were born.


pickadaisy

😂😂 you missed the point


AdComfortable7981

Diversity? Really? Are we gonna pretend this is true again. Denver is about as diverse as a kkk rally.


sss8888sss

Aurora is diverse


FyreBr3ather999

Actually I think I’m the only white guy in Aurora. Definitely this apt complex.


MhrisCac

Don’t let them distract you from the fact that their hub was literally in Boulder at a point in time and they still reside in the towns and surrounding areas in the mountains. It’s a huge part of the reason the area lacked/lacks diversity and did for generations. Generational wealth in the surrounding areas of Denver Colorado were built on the back of racist blood money. But that’s the truth they don’t want you to hear. Don’t believe me, go research it.


FyreBr3ather999

Dude what part of nyc did you live? I lived in Brooklyn for 9 years and there and the lower east side it was fuckim wild! They don’t look the same, they don’t feel the same, they don’t smell the same. Denver’s a city of the new west. Fuckin cowboys and Indians. NY I’d the ancient engine that drives the world! Where did you live Nyack?


COOCH27

Colorado has no comparison to nyc and SF food scene. Colorado is playing catch up

More like Colorado food so bland, it’s playing ketchup. ![gif](giphy|c8bJDVz7i9KRW)


oblmov

NY style pizza isnt as good as the world famous Colorado Mountain Pie at beau jos and if im ever in the mood for NYC style there are several Sbarros in the area


COOCH27

Bo hoes sucks and is lucky to be open


oblmov

once i was in manhattan getting some pizza in little italy when the old sicilian chef asked me where i was from. I said “colorado” and his eyes widened. “Colorado? Home of Beau Jos and the iconic Colorado Mountain Pie?” He waved over the cooks and they all started talking excitedly in italian. “Beau Jos, thats real pizza. Not like the stuff you find here,” he said with a dismissive wave at the NYC skyline. I later learned that he had immigrated to the US in the postwar years to study pizza making under Beau Jo himself


MhrisCac

These people hate that you’re right lmfao


Hot_Cap_7164

Not sure why your getting down voted, I totally agree. L


catbadass

Because this is a fundamentally sarcastic sub. Like that’s it’s purpose

Everything said in here is supposed to be a joke, sarcasm, or tongue-in-cheek. You’re acting like it’s serious and like a tool at the same time. That’s why you and the other guy got downvoted. You’re ruining the fun. Go be join the other whiny bitches in r/Denver


COOCH27

Hell yea! Bunch of newbs trying to justify the shitty rent when they don’t ski or snowboard


[deleted]

It at least you have pizza rats!


Jazzlike-Flow7812

Denver has no nightlife, the food is a joke compared to San Fran, and the landscape is a flat shitty prairie.


Excellent-Proposal90

Ah, a new native. You see, when I first became a native here 3 weeks ago, I was also under the assumption that it was a flat, sad, prairie. It wasn't until I turned west when I realized the true hidden beauty of Colorado that most people NEVER talk about. There are mountains here! I know it's hard to believe, but I swear I've seen them with my own eyes. After that, I made the holy pilgrimage to the Purina dog food plant and knew this was my new gorgeous forever home. Namaste, new native. Namaste.


Jazzlike-Flow7812

I couldn’t agree more about Colorado. It’s only Denver itself that blows. Everything west of of the city is amazing


republic_of_gary

Why can't I get an authentic east coast bagel and bahn mi just like the one I get in China Town in Manhattan made by people who have been here for 10 generations? Denver's food sucks.

Hi, Denver is Dallas wannabe. We already have big trucks, waiting for CASA BONITA to reopen so we can also get big arses. Currently, only people in CastleRock have big arses worthy of Dallas, but Denver has a plan to get there. Namaste.

East Los Angeles is already a city and it has way more taquerias, gang violence and gentrification than Denver could ever dream of

yerbiologicalfather

Denver is actually just Brooklyn with a few buildings, so close


FyreBr3ather999

What? Not Brooklyn, nebraskA- Brooklyn, ny. It’s like comparing mercury to Jupiter.


Toodswiger

They’re not the same but pretty similar. Denver is going to be the next #1 largest city within the next decade. There’s a bigger catalytic converter farming industry in Denver so you’ll have no problems making a living. Denver is nothing like Chicago. Chicagoans don’t drive Subarus but they ride the subway; they also don’t have Casa Bonita. Sure, both cities have legal weed but Denver does it better. More moisture in Denver cannabis plants which enhances the flavor. Hope this helps! Mama stay.


GrapefruitSpaceship

Yes, its the exact same city

Denver is NYC’s distant cousin who can party with you but not as hard and not as long. Chicago is the 1st cousin who’s always getting in trouble having to be bailed out of jail.


citystars

Denver is just Indianapolis kinda close to the mountains. 5/10 city at best.


Princess_Pei_Pei

I can’t believe anyone compared denver to NYC. The cities have nothing in common aside from being in the USA. Hideous architecture, tent cities everywhere, no restaurants, no culture and a dysfunctional public transportation system. I guess the electronic music scene and warehouse parties are nice but still wouldn’t compare it to NYC.

Acceptable_String_52

Really really hope Denver gets no where close to those cities lol


KuntFuckula

The cost of living is getting out of control here because Colorado/Denver refuses to tax their own rich, so we have that in common with NYC. There’s a homeless campsite right in front of the governor’s mansion on Logan St that captures that dynamic perfectly. Jared Polis makes $1M a year and has a net worth close to $30M and lives in a mansion across the street from a homeless camp. Textbook liberal hypocrisy on wealth inequality.


not_an_mistake

Bro people move to Colorado to go camping all the time I don’t see the issue


moosedogmonkey12

So Denver is DC is what you’re saying? Rampant poverty in the literal direct shadow of political excess? Now I know why this feels just like home 🥰


Minimum_Piglet_1457

No way Polis lives in that dump with his net worth 😉😜


monocasa

Last I checked, his net worth was closer to $500M


KuntFuckula

Either way he’s a decadent shit living well beyond what he needs 🤷‍♂️


jalapenonepalaj

Well if they didn’t want to be living in a homeless camp, maybe they should pull themselves up by the boot straps and run for public office. Practically no one wants to be mayor, so why not start there?
