I’m supposed to fly to Monterrey in a few days and I’m not mentally prepared for it.
I like Mexico City just fine, thank you.
Keep your wide boulevards, reasonable zoning laws, and tall government offices, I’d much rather be in a city where I can’t count the amount of Metro lines with one hand, buildings are sinking, and most of the sinking buildings house the govt. bureaucrats.
I like my political parties yellow, my local governments as boroughs, and my Quesadillas with cheese.
I reserve myself all the elitism because, come on, even at 4.3 million people, everything looks tiny compared to Mexico City, have you even gotten fibre optic internet yet?
Oh you have? huh, how civil!
I bet its easier to install it with such short buildings!
Oh, you also have skyscrapers...
Sure, Monterrey is OK. But it’s not my cup of tea. Perhaps Monterrey is like Mexico’s Germany (Sorry, Puebla) and if I can steal an analogy from Jeremy Clarkson: you don’t go to Germany on vacation, sure its clean and everyone is just dandy, but you’d go to France or Italy!
But I need to settle down, I can’t change my destiny, I’ll be prepared to face this, chin up! But first lets research and prepare:

You guys have planes down there?
Kidding! I know all about TACA...The Almost Careful Airlines.

No matter how much of a judgmental dick you may be, there is always someone who can do the same to you. And eventually there are 10 million New Yorkers, so we all lose!

All I’ve ever seen of Monterrey is the airport since they were always sending us out to Saltillo so hey it could be worse. It’s not like you are coming to Detroit!

I mean, its a nice city, I guess all of us chilangos are just butthurt that the other cities are growing too, so there’s this kind of unspoken elitism and sort of xenophobic behavior in which they would call us assholes and rigid and we’d call them unsophisticated and backwards

I use to get that sort of treatment from New Yorkers because I grew up in farm country. I guess some people need to feel like it’s ‘ Us versus them’. I suppose that’s why some people up here think building a wall is a good idea. Us versus them, not logic.
