The only people who go to Eastie

Live in Eastie!

It's a war zone

Yeah, stay out of there. There are no good restaurants and I heard someone got killed there last year.

Then why

Does it take me hours to get into Rino's on any given night?

Way behind. Haven't you heard of

Wiggyisms?

I'm all for this.

If people actually buy in to the blatant racism and stereotypes, it keeps rent low for me, my neighbors, and the awesome local businesses throughout the neighborhood.

I mean...umm...the tweets being aggregated are totally accurate and everyone should stay away. I hear Southie is real nice now, just keep going there.

"No one lives in Eastie"

Yup -- hopefully it's clear that "no one" lives in Eastie. Not at all suitable place to live.....

Truth

And I've heard the 9 and 10 buses are much faster than the Blue Line. And the KO Pies is far better; in South Boston they actually have the common courtesy of protecting all of the tables from the elements (no getting hit with stray cornhole bags). Definitely worth the 50% premium on rent.
