Let's hit the US, SMB stylez

Professor Smarmiarty · 10-02-2010, 08:59 AM

So I've decided to go for my December/January holidays to the US but don't know where to go. Where is a rocking place to go in the US?
I have but one requirement:
It can't be balls-ass cold (balls-ass cold is below like 10 degrees C).
Also I have no car so will be reliant on like trains and buses and things.

If I were a moderator, I would totally make the joke that you should go to General Discussion!
And then post a photoshopped image of a planeticket with just that destination on it, before I moved the thread.

Ah, the injustices of not being a moderator here.

In any case, the most logical thing for anybody not from the US to say would be "New York!".
So, yeah. You could go to New York!
Though I understand it can get balls-ass cold there, but you're pretty much assured of hobos with fires in every other alleyway, so you could warm up there!

Vegas.

MAGFest!

If not there I would only recommend the major cities. For Christmas or New Year's I guess New York is a given. The city is really nice during the winter and the New Year celebration is pretty crazy. I could even visit you! Plus it obviously has all the trains and buses you need.

Depending on if we have a mild winter or not it could easily be balls-ass cold. If we do have a nutsy winter then, yeah, Vegas.

Or the west coast. I could think of a dozen different places you could go. Is there anything specific you want to do while you're here?

I dunno about Magfest, Virginia gets pretty balls-ass cold in the winter.

I'm more inclined to trust you Europe-buddy, unlike those shifty Merkans who will lead me to a back alley.
New York is probably my backup choice.

New York is total number one contender at the mo. I'm not too worried about the cold cause it's got plenty of hobos right? I'm like the king of the hobos so they'll look after me.
As for wha to do, who knows. What do you do in the US? Eat lots of shit and get real fat. That sounds like a plan.

Well I've already ruled out Canada cause it's a shithole but not like a regular shithole, a shithole filled with frozen shit.

Just make sure you lose often enough that it's not blatantly obvious that you're robbing the house, and move from Casino to Casino every time you start drawing attention/win enough that you think you might.

Well okay except you said anything below 10 C was unacceptable. Virginia gets easily down to -10 C in winter. During the day.

And New York? Do you have any idea how cold it gets there?

I'M LOOKING OUT FOR YOU SENSITIVE NEW ZEALAND OR WHEREVER CLIMATE SENSIBILITIES
