I'm not into the yuppie consumerist **** that plagues the area. Are there areas that avoided this, and live with a little more purpose?
I think most of them live a little south of the area in Lorton. Check out the Lorton Reformatory for a thriving bohemian/stoner scene. They've managed to avoid the consumerist culture by not having any marketable skills (unless hackey sack is a marketable skill) and live their lives with the purpose of receiving parole in 8-10.
I have no useful suggestions to offer you, but I can see you're being shown the door and wanted to compliment your handle. Can't believe no one on C-D came up with "brohemian" before. Sadly, it conjures up images of microbreweries, Portland, and Winona Ryder (pre-shoplifting), not the Tysons Galleria, SAIC and Barbara Comstock.
wow. thank you to those of you who answered this without being total asses.
I guess that just embodies what most of the area is about--some sense of entitlement because you were able to kiss enough ass until you made a little more money, worked more hours, and had less time for your passions and loved ones.
I followed my passions and am making 6 figures doing what I love (And don't 'work' a day in my life). I'm looking for people who do what they love, not what will get them some material object that some trashy girl in a little dress might be impressed by. people whose purpose in life is to better the lives of others.
stay classy nova
