Went there last year - awesome place. Can't believe it's inthe south. Great art and music scene, fantastic food and the people are great. Definitely worth a visit.

Oh and Trump sux :)
 
People like @Carolina Red put doubts in my mind but I turned down projects to go to South Carolina and North Carolina. I've worked at NJ, CT and now IL. If my visa gets approved, I have an opportunity to go to Atlanta, GA and I'm not sure about it yet. Although my friends tell me Atlanta is as progressive as any metro city.
Where in NC and SC were you offered to go?

Atlanta is the US in microcosm. You’ve got super conservatives in Cobb County, you’ve got liberals around the universities, you’ve got a great downtown area, you’ve got inner city urban slums... and an absolutely fantastic zoo. It’s got Pandas.
 
I'm also Lutheran Christian and I have a lot of friends from my ethnicity who have settled well within conservative communities there. That's what they tell me too.
 
The same Scott Pruitt that has multiple investigations hanging on him?
 
And what about your spelling mistakes, Dong? I mean, Don?

Its kinda sad that they're still so many preconceived notions about the south in general. Not accusing you or anything, but people do get surprised when they visit certain places down here a lot. I met an Australian at an Atlanta bar once who was extremely astounded at how modernized and progressive Athens GA was. I kept wondering what he expected from a major college town. I've encountered some northerners who were similarly amazed by places like Raleigh and Asheville NC.

In the Atlanta metro? I have a friend from Huntsville AL (big Lutheran community there) who worked for the church in an administrative position and traveled across the country as part of the job to different Lutheran churches. She was based in Atlanta and in an interracial relationship and was pleasantly surprised at how well they were received and how welcome they felt in areas like Forsyth county. Forsyth is by far the most conservative county in Georgia and probably one of the most conservative counties nationwide.
 
He must take great pride in his ghostwriters' writing abilities.
 
Look out, Nabokov...

I don’t know who’s losing their grasp on reality more; Trump or the guy next door to me who comes out every night and swears at the seagulls (in fact he’s outside right now calling them “fecking wee shites”).
 
Why do books written by U.S. businessmen like Trump always have titles like I'm Rich; You're A Twat or I Made It and You Feckin' Didn't, Loser?
 
It's just amazing. Imagine being so insecure that you post about your writing abilities, and then you make a simple grammar mistake. Then you're so insecure you delete the previous tweet.
 
The trouble with Oz is that it's too fecking isolated. You generally have to want to give up your family and friends to go there. It's a huge step.

Wouldn't you have to do that with friends and family in NA/SA if you moved to Europe?
