A city that really feels like a town full of business people during the day and college kids at night. We're loyal to our teams and will kick your ass or yell at you if you don't love them too. We'll do this either sober or drunken. Most times it's better drunken though. Basically it's really funny to us.

the greatest city on earth, home to the [dropkick murphys], berkley college of music, the union oyster house, an infinite amount of bars, and the red sox. nobody here calls it [beantown], and we dont say fookin. we pronounced fuckin more like feckin. dont try to fake a boston accent in boston, i will instantly be detected and you will get cold stares until you leave. alot of people in boston do not actually have the accent, but we can all recognize it. if youre not irish, its ok, just make up something about a great-aunt from county shannon and someonell buy you a round. everyone heres a little bit irish, even the asians. the only time bostonians go on the duck tours is the patriots parades, and none of us ever, ever go on the swan boats. we make up words like you wouldnt believe. at any gathering of bostonians over five people, the [YANKEES SUCK] chant AND the LETS GO [MURPHYS] chant are obligatory. it doesnt even matter what the occasion is.

most kickass place on earth. Rich white college kids? yeah go to [roxbury] or southie and see what happens bud. Boston is the place where milkshakes are frappes, turn signals are blinkas, and water fountains are bubblers. absolutley no one goes on the duck tours. Besides the north end, almost everyone here is irish. any smart person would know to stay the fuck out of dorchester/roxbury/[mattapan]. no one calls it [beantown]. some people fake a boston accent but you can tell right away. we only have the accents when we yell. boston is the place where kids call their ma..ma. its area code is [617]. boston one of the most chill cities to be in. papa [ginos] and dunkins are the best places to be for food. home of the [hoodsie] cup...and 99% of the people you meet dont have the boston accent. like i said, only when were pissed off.

Correcting some common Boston misconceptions:
The Red Sox are awesome. Dont try to deny it.
The Patriots did not CHEAT their way to 3 Superbowl Titles.
Not everybody has an accent. And the people who do dont all have the same accent. There are multiple [Boston accents], and they all sound totally differnt.
You can not park your goddamn car in Harvard Yard! Stop asking!
It is REALLY annoying to constantly be [quacked] at by the Duck Tours... but if you actually go on one you secretly decide that theyre kind of fun.
We do not go to Cheers. And nobody will know your name there- the theme song lies.
[Milkshakes] are NOT the same thing as frappes. Frappes have ice cream, [milkshakes] do not. for some reason people are really confused about this one.
The End.
Boston=Love. Go Sox.
