I will authorize your move if you stop dressing like a douche and go make some purchases at O'Connell's near Heath and Main before you leave Buffalo.

haha I had no idea what that was so I googled it; I used to live a few blocks down and would always pass that place walking to class. It was like a step back in time for douchebags

I don't dress like a hipster really, I just love the hipster girls. I do wear levis 511's, but I think that's more-so because of the whole skateboard thing. no scarves or kanye glasses, ha

In terms of bars, I just like shitty dive bars where people can just hang out, rather than trying to be somebody. or dudes with blowouts and vertically striped shirts trying to fight everybody, with girls in northface fleeces and ugg boots.

Basically I'm just looking for not-lame-generic

Can't get enough of girls in skinny jeans though. tight legs just really accentuate the butt

I live in Ghent. It's a pretty even mixture. Remember that it still is a college area so you will still get the "brah" crowd. There are a few bars around like you described, but they all get crowded. I think you should visit before you move. I do agree with ShawnD about the athletic spandex wearing ladies though. Everywhere.

It's also right on top of the new football stadium so plenty of games and parties.

well I'm staying with my friend in virginia beach, just looking for places to hang out.

i'm very disappointed about the hockey down there though. doesn't seem to be much pickup hockey, which sucks. if there's semi-pro down there I could try that, but I don't really care to play competitively anymore.

edit: just talked to Chilled Ponds or whatever, they have dorking around icetime every day and skate and shoot weds fri sat. i should just join a league down there

I'm having trouble getting a hold of iceland. i tried the 757-490-3907 and the 490 3999 numbers and can't talk to anyone. the automated response only has public skate times

getting kinda nervous the hockey down there is going to be shitty

If you're over 21 and like to drink the places to go in Va Beach are Hot Tuna on Wednesday nights and Crocs on Thursday nights.
