Boston’s personality in a nutshell:

Couple of years ago I had a conference there and went for a long run on the street before the morning sessions. I pause at stoplight on the sidewalk, and a packed yellow school bus is next to me at the light. Chilly morning in October.

Most diverse bunch of middle schoolers I ever seen. Black kids, white kids, Dominican kids, Asians. Everybody. I’m standing there and a window on the bus rolls down. This smiling brown skinned middle school girl waves at me. I smile and wave back. How sweet!

As soon as I wave back, all the other windows on the bus roll down, and al those beautiful diverse smiling faces all shout out the window at once, in unison:

“Fuuucccccckk you, you fucking fatass!!!! Hahahaha!!!”

The bus driver started busting up laughing and sped off.

Almost ran me over lol. Meanest, and most hilariously mean, city in America lol.
