Hey, I live in Massachusetts now, and rents are crazy high right now. Im splitting from my live in GF now, and will no longer be splitting rent and bills. Rochester is much cheaper housing than NE. It is easy for me to transfer my job to Rochester. So my goal is to work in Rochester, have a short work commute. And to get Bills season tickets. I grew up in Buffalo and I love the city. Is Rochester similar?
sorry about the gf pete. depending on specifically where you work, you shouldn't have more than a 20-25 min drive in most places. i'm a suburban guy, so i would avoid the city...especially certain parts. even the bars/restaurants we go to are usually in the suburbs, or in one area downtown. unless we go to a play/sporting event/strong museum...i never go into the city. just depends on what lifestyle you're looking for. review the prices. this area of ny was once wildly affordable, but like everywhere else, prices have skyrocketed. both homes in the area that i've owned have now doubled in value over the last 7 or so years.

Well this went to hell. My point of even jumping in this thread was to argue that’s what’s going on with the younger generation isn’t driven by politics. Are they screwed because of housing costs, interest rates and tuition costs? Sure, but to blame this on any type of political movement is nothing but avoiding accountability for their own lives. The young on both sides have it hard now.

Since when do you venture into this place?oh i'm reading in here all the time. i enjoy political talk to an extent, but this place is way too savage for me. as much as i like the convo, politics plays such a tiny role in my life....and i think i'm much happier for it.

There are obviously young folks this doesn’t apply to, but what I’m saying has basis in polling and statistics, whereas you’ve given anecdotal evidence.maybe when it comes to dating apps, but those stats mean nothing to me when it comes to work and success. the "i have it harder so i'm not going to try" is an incredible cop out.
concerning dating, people have to be far more reliant on apps. i get it's the easiest way to go, but it has completely warped expectations and what a relationship. they've told women that if a man isn't 6 foot or make 100k he's not worthy, like it's taught men that female success equals feminism. theses are just two examples, but if something doesn't work, it's time to try something new out.

If it makes you feel better, given the lefts obsession with calling anything men say “incel based”… I’ve had plenty of numb, empty sex in my life.
I get the feeling many of you aren’t in your 20’s and 30’s when you take issue with how young men frame the current culture.
It’s not incel commentary to acknowledge the emptiness and bleakness of the modern world in terms of relationships between the sexes.
You just have to hope you stumble across someone worth investing in and that, in that moment of time, both of you have buried trauma, exes, and commitment fear down far enough to actually try with each other.
If you wonder why young men have no drive to compete in a economic environment that disadvantages them on top of it… it’s because their base nature to provide for a woman and family they love has been drained and replaced with a hollow realization that they won’t have what their grandparents had.
i dunno man. i just can't agree with the bolded. if a young man doesn't have the drive to be successful because it may be harder and take longer for them to achieve than what their grandparents had...they're already dead in the water an full of excuses. i have a large volume of young people who come through my office, and you can easily tell who will be ok and who won't. i see kids getting out of college, getting jobs, having good relationship as so on.
it's amazing to my how much certain people let social media and politics seep into their personal lives and completely distort what could be their reality.

I look at the Florida (Sarasota) listings on an almost daily basis. It’s just a hobby more than anything, but inventory is MUCH higher than 1-2 years ago. Things that never flooded got flooded last year with back to back hurricanes , so that may be part of it. It’s far too soon for us to act in any way with so many uncertainties, but it’s nice to see things cool off some. It was INSANE for a while, and they still have spec builders hoping to find suckers to pay a million too much for houses in areas that don’t yet support those values. But they keep advertising hoping to find that one cash buyer to help set a new market.
i just spoke with someone that is moving to the tampa area on friday. they've had a place, but now their daughters are in the area, so they'll be completely out of rochester. he made the comment that he thinks that people are going to wait one more hurricane season to see what the patterns are, and that could really determine the market. i really don't want to spend the money, but i'm not sure when the next dip would come.

We are assuming our son will be on the west coast of FL in a few years, and we will need at least a small place there. I’m adding some time before the opener this year to take my wife to Watkins Glen and Niagara on the Lake. She’s only been to WNY for quick in & out trips, so we’ve never enjoyed much of what there is to offer. It’s a trial balloon at this point, because WNY summers/falls and FL winters are not a terrible combo.
I’d like to make exploring a regular thing before the opener every year and see if the area grabs her/us. One very found memory as a kid was going to the Thousand Islands. I was young, but it made a cool impression. Maybe that’s for next year before the opener. It’s not quite time to decide about our long term plans, but we are close enough to think seriously.
.
the thousand islands and niagara on the lake are great attractions this time of the year. the finger lakes alone make the trip worth it. my kids are 10 and 7, so i'm not going anywhere for a while. my stick more is that if the real estate in florida drops enough, i might have to consider where to buy something just to get started. i just have no idea where.
-
i don't think i could ever do one location, but it just depends how life works out as others have mentioned. i really do like this area this time of year. we are constantly in the thousand islands or the finger lakes. tons of good breweries and wineries, great restaurants, etc. on top of that, the weather is actually perfect...most of the time.
a chunk of our family is scattered in southern florida, so i think the move would be to downsize and stay in rochester from june until january 1st. after that spend the rest of the year near palm beach. it will partly depend on our kids.
as i think about this, i also realize that it is just as likely that i'll retire, sell everything associated with my work, only to die in the parking lot as i'm leaving the closing. i'll be so pissed if my wife gets all my *****.

I say CAR-mel corn.
But I also say CARE-a-mel apple.
It’s a stupid word and I hate the Germans for inventing English.
jesus...i do the same thing. the candy by itself would be car-mel, but on a apple it definitely is car-a-mel. now i hate the word as much as golf.

I’ll go with whatever @teef says on this one.
my initial thought was car-a-mel, but after repeatedly saying it out loud, i tend to say car-mel. i'm confused, and now i'm going to take the rest of the day off.

What is 80/20?
That 80% of women are competing for the same 20% of men?
In the dating app world, it’s unequivocally true.
If you’re attractive, are or pretend to be successful (because how would they know) and are over 6’, you’ll have success.
What ends up happening is those men entertain women that they normally wouldn’t as hook ups. With no intention to pursue them beyond sex.
Those women, who should be talking to men on their level, end up in months/years long situationships with men above their level. They then have higher standards than they should have and end up bitter/angry at men because of wasting years of their life on unfulfilling relationships where they’re strung along.
This is all on a very superficial level, and there are outliers, but it’s very much a “thing”.
For 20% men, it’s relatively easy to, at least, get laid. To avoid painting a too rosy picture for those of us who fall into that category.. the top 10% of women get attention from celebs, athletes, high net worth guys who date in a world most of us will never know. I dated a Falcons cheerleaders for a while.. the dudes shooting their shot her DM’s were wild. Practice Squad, fringe roster guys, basketball players, influencers and high level execs.
Moral of the story for men.. try to marry before college ends, because if not.. you’re best bet is to fall in that 20% by random chance on the height piece, move to a city, and have fun with hookup culture until it drains the life out of your soul. At worst, you’re in the 80% and enter a dating world skewed against you superficially and encounter a world where women are fine being alone and you’re going to struggle if you have to turn to bumble, tinder, hinge etc.
So in regards to “incels”.. imagine being a guy who struggles to ever even meet a woman in the modern dating world, and once you do, she already has a “men ain’t ish” mentality after getting used by men she now compares you to physically that she was never meant to be entertaining anyway in prior generations.
End result. Lonely angry men. Lonely bitter women.
I actually saw a video about this recently, (before i watched adolescence) about this exact matter. What made it more powerful was that number were added. By numbers I mean they showed the number of men and women in dating age. Once you start placing specifics on a partner, (size, looks, money) those numbers shrink wildly. Even the 6 foot thing...if you eliminate the men under 6", the pool of available men is more than cut in half on so on. On top of that, very few women are willing to bend on these criteria, adding to the nonsense. I'm guessing those apps have just shaped the dating world for the negative.
Have you ever seen the videos on X? I have to imagine a lot are staged, but they'll interview young girls after being out. When asked what they want out of a man, I'm sure you can guess the criteria. The problem is the men who meet these criteria would never date the majority of these girls. It's a case of setting themselves up for failure.
Hell...they were running surveys on what young people think a salary is to be considered successful. The answer...600k. It's a new, warped reality that going to slap some people in the face.

it is a little sad, but the upgrade is welcomed. my kids are going to be 10 and 7 soon, so i'm going to take them to their first game this year so they can say they've been to the old stadium. hopefully that's the best memory i'll have.
