It's more fun when the weather is nicer and the people are more pleasant.

I personally prefer Boston in the springtime. The weather isn't too hot, and the whole city just seems to be in a merrier mood. It gets so nice, sometimes you even feel like taking a swim in the Charles...
Bwahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!
*ahem*
But, yeah, getting rained on and running into depressed, mean people for the rest of the year is a blast.

I love the North End. The best Italian food in the whole state...

We could swing by The Pit and see freaky goths with piercing, or we could ride the T at midnight and watch all the freaky people who ride the T at midnight.

We could even pretend we're all Yankees fans and get killed in the street!

Yeah! Let's ask people to say "Park the car in Harvard Yard!"

I know! Let's all talk in foppish British accents and make stupid pompus jokes and laugh at them pompusly!

I've never been too good with British accents. Do you think I could maybe pretend to be a pompous jerk from Beverly Hills. Something like: *in snooty, pompous, Beverly Hills voice* Muffy, the sweater wrapped around my neck is getting awl wet...

I think it would be nice if we diversify our pomposity (is that a word?)!
