Apparently you don't know "the city" is slang for New York City. I can remember many a time at UB when heard "the city" from co-students in their new yawk or long island accents talk about it ad nauseam. 1

Ok ... what does UB have to do with it. I’m confused. Isn’t it clear he’s referring to Boston

UB is not in vicinity of NYC. Boston is closer to NYC than UB. Students went to UB to be as far as possible from NYC and still have in state tuition so mommy and daddy would pay for. I remember a picture showing area of damage of nuclear bomb. Boston would have major impact from it but WNY no.

Bubba Gump Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 Let him stay in the Boston area and continue losing. I'm fine with it.
Call_Of_Ktulu Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 You can only listen to that Boston accent for so long then you just have to move. We were talking about who has the most annoying accent at the Bowling alley last week and it was Boston in a landslide.

There are a number of southern accents that make me want to jam a fork in my ear.

So much this. ”Where are you from?” ”The City.” “Oh, cool, which part?” ”Well, like, 45 minutes outside The City...” ”So, Long Island??” ”Yeah, but, like I go to The City all the time.” I probably had that conversation a thousand times at UB 😂 1
