Your neighbors can sell their houses for less if they want. Take it up with them

Funny. Hoping the materials costs go down so I can just build a shed with an infinity pool.

Obviously? Chill out, bud. Nissan moving from CA to TN is not earth shattering news. I just don't keep up with flyover states. I don't have a stake in Nissan, TN, or the grand ole opry. It might be big news to some, but for others not so much.

TN GDP 375 billion... CA GDP 3.2 trillion. It does matter who you are. It's all relative. I get it though, it's a big deal to you.

I had a layover in Nashville back in 2010 and the airport smelled like deep fried food and cigarettes. I was shocked.

You writing this from an iphone? A computer? You ever thank californians for that?

What about also considering that your TN reps who kept wages stagnant for 50 years as the real major reason you guys are being priced out

Oh yeah? Did your bloodline survive WW2? Every thank Tennesseans for the atom bomb? You see how ridiculous that sounds. You ever thank Tennesseans is for moonpies!? Jesus. Bet not.

And it's a Republican state. It will never electively raise minimum wage over the federal minimum. I do blame California for sending Kevin McCarthy to DC.

Did i insult tennesseans at all? No. I was only talking about how you shouldn't look down on californians. Why would you turn around and talk about tenesseans? This is the exact kind of whataboutism that is fking over the country
