Why, Sir, you find no man, at all intellectual, who is willing to leave London. No, Sir, when a man is tired of London, he is tired of life; for there is in London all that life can afford."
— Samuel Johnson, 1777 A.D.
— Samuel Johnson, 1777 A.D.
Was Samuel Johnson talking out of his arsehole? Surely he was not.
You've heard it all before:
"London is the centre of civilization."
"You all came from us and without us, you wouldn't exist."
"We freed the enslaved before you did, and without us, you couldn't have beaten the Nazis."
"There are two places in the UK, "London" and "Not-London""
"So there Johnny, like it or lump it, London is the best."
"Compared to London, New York is ugly"
etc etc
How about this?
"London Sucks, Actually"
