I love it in the south, personally.

Yeah, so the cars situation is crap, but public transit is good. All in all, a really good reason for me not to get a car.

No, I don't have a license at all. I had no need for one in the Boston area.

Oh, yeah! I should update! So I moved in the end of July, and I've been walking to work everyday, and so far it's been fine. I'm working on establishing a residency so I can take the driver's exam before it starts raining a lot in the fall and I can start going to a range. The only problem is...

I don't have a license, so needs must. I could also walk (it is under a mile). Regardless, I'm working on getting the license.

That's mostly because of sin taxes, though. I'm surprised that furniture is cheaper in the south, but that sounds convenient.

Huh, that's a lot cheaper than up North. I'll wait to buy then, and pay for delivery.

Mostly basic, like a couch, table, and stools. I'm not really looking for high or low quality, just something that works, is comfortable, and cheap.

Yeah, I plan on getting a car, but in the meantime, I've got an apartment near where I work (like a mile out) and I plan on biking there. Getting a gun is a priority, and I have quickly realized that a car is a major help with that. I was a little screwed on apartment prices because I needed...

I don't have a car (or even a license), so I'm avoiding that right now.

Oh, okay! Glad that got cleared up!

This makes sense. Interesting question, what would they think of a Gadsen rainbow flag? I mean, there's a sticker on my laptop of this, so people are likely to see me with it pretty frequently (though probably not at work, as I'm pretty sure they hand out laptops). My guess is that a good amount...

I'll probably wait until I actually start following College football, but that sounds like a good idea. Hopefully it doesn't get closed down this year.

Make that 9,001 with me, making it... Yeah, I was talking about bicycles. Thanks, this is really useful. This is really great news. I'm going to be following two NFL teams this year (the Pats, obviously, and the Pat's Expansion team in Tompa Bay), and probably adding Alabama football to that...

Sweet! Any local food you'd recommend, especially in regards to Pizza, Burgers, and Fried Chicken? I also got told by the person hiring me that Huntsville was a liberal(er) place (She knew I was from Massachusetts, so I bet she was trying not to scare me off). Is there any truth to that? Any...

Fair, but given Saban was an assistant coach for Belichick, I think I'll get on fine with supporting Alabama. Basically what I expect. A little heat is fine to make jokes off of.

Eh, talking about football is a fun time, even if we rag on each other's team. There isn't really a state professional team in Alabama, so I should be fine.

Very good point. I mean, I wasn't going to do it anyway, but I'll make sure to avoid it. I'm a huge Pats fan, so that's not an issue! Good point.

That's what I thought. Christ, it feels like half the people up North are already guessing how I'm gonna be hate crimed the second I go down South, making me slightly nervous. Thanks for the reassurance.

As long as it isn't Yankee. I hate the New York Yankees with a burning passion. This is great advice, and something I might have missed otherwise. Fortunately I'm moving to an apartment complex, so I'll be fine in that regard, but I'll remember it for when I later get a house. My ideal lawn is...
