Sh*tholes of the World Thread

it is good for travellers than Liege has removed from map.

Anywhere in the interior of BC during the winter. This includes Kelowna, Kamloops and Penticton. During the summer they may be barely worthwhile going to but only because of the random parties and lake activities to participate in like houseboating.

Alberta is a ****hole. Sorry Edmonton and Calgary but not even your cheaper booze can make me hang out there. Also, if Winnipeg, Manitoba were toilet paper I wouldn't wipe my ass with it.

Seeking out those things is no different to what people did in villages and tribes thousands of years ago, before "consumerism" or being a pompous highbrow prick was invented.

Why does a more convenient medium of exchange inherently change the act of people getting together to entertain others? The performers love what they do and so do the crowds, who gives a **** if money is exchanged instead of bone implements and ****ty tasting preserved food?

are u freaking nuts!!!? IP is the heat!!!!!! i stayed at that mother wed thru monday for free! i just cant beat that price for the location

I heard Excalibur is excellent too.

Bali, particularly Kuta.
Probably cat.2, but I think a case for cat.1 can be made.
Just a wasteland of tourists destroying what should be a beautiful tropical island - water undrinkable, food potentially lethal (and guaranteed to add speed to anyone in a bid to find a usable ****house) and locals trying to rip you off with some of the crappiest merchandise available at outstanding markups. Beer is cheap (although nasty), so there is something.
Worst of it is my wife loves it and drags me & the kids there every chance she gets, and I'm too weak to tell her to piss off.
Sad really.

[PingClown]

Tell her the entire island is run by the Indonesian mafia, that usually does the trick.

+1 to Bali.

Cumberland, Maryland - Here are some highlights from wikipedia.

The Cumberland, MD-WV Metropolitan Statistical Area is one of the poorest in the United States, ranking 305th out of 318 metropolitan areas in per capita income.[1]

The population of the city has continued to decline since 1990, with the 2010 census population of 20,859 the lowest since the 1900 census.

It was once Maryland's second largest city.

I went to school near there, it was terrible... nothing to do, and nothing even remotely close to do. Trips to walmart were an event.

LA is tough for noobs.

No. Not only are some parts of it incredible, it is becoming increasingly gentrified, so even the crappy parts are fewer and smaller.

^^^obv i am kinda biased (although i'm not from baltimore, i have lived here for 6 years or so). I was with you when i first moved here thought it was just an overall terrible city. Since then, it has slowly but surely grown on me. It really is not that bad, stay away from certain parts (just like ANY city) and you will be fine and most likely have a great time.

Totally agree with most of this. Funny how you forgot the worst city in all of Canada when it comes to the winter. Oh nevermind, its right over there in your location. I guess its nice the 2 days it doesnt pour rain.

um no. With the exception of the northern residential parts of town, you are likely to encounter someone pissing on your sidewalk (federal hill area) or a group of downtrodden crackers who don't like you and will jump you if you haven't lived in the neighborhood for at least two generations (locust point). Or mugging you and running back to the projects (Little Italy, Fells Point). Guess that leaves Canton?

Also, DC generally ok.

Vancouver has the worst winter weather in Canada? Am I correct in guessing you have never been to Saskatchewan?
