I don’t think it’s just people in the Bay Area that are flaky, but rather Californians in general. I don’t really know what causes it, but I’m guilty of it myself, since I’ve lived here my entire life. Living in a place like SF where there’s a lot of options just exacerbates it.
- s09dfhks 3y agoI wonder if our lack of good public transit has anything to do with this. If I had a super easy way to get down to San Jose from the East Bay, I would be hanging out with my friends down there much more often.
- 23B1 3y agoI think you might be right about this; it's way easier to party – and indulge – when you can take a cheap cab or the subway from LES to UWS.
- mcint 3y agoBART has extended a little closer on both sides. Or BART + CalTrain (esp. some variant of express / limited). It's still a longer ride, a full hour or more from East Bay.
- smugma 3y agoAgreed. It's actually much worse in LA than SF (I've lived 20+ years in each).
