The more narrow the question the more narrow the answer.

Also realize I am not dissing Philly. I think it is a great city.
"Because the city and people are better." Better how? In what ways? I don't mean this in a demeaning or insulting way, but is English not your first language? You do realize that when someone asks you a broad question, there are no laws or social conventions forbidding you from giving a more detailed explanation?

It's a wasted effort. The guy's been called out over and over and he still can't come up with a single reason, legitimate or otherwise.

I already told you it has more good qualities and less bad qualities.

What specifics do you want?

I would gladly answer them, but I dont what answers you want.

The question is WHAT qualities, but since you can't answer that, I'll assume you're either dumb, innebriated, trolling, or some combination of the three. What a waste of bandwidth.

It would be much easier to specify than to ask such broad questions time after time, but to answer your question in the manner you asked it, "the city, the people, the atmosphere, and the quality of life." Happy?

K-12 Schools
Universities
Median Income
History
Architecture
Sports
Art
Culture

Restaurants
Metropolitan area

No, because you gave zero reasoning behind any of those supposed superior qualities. I'm through engaging with you. Best of luck on earning your grade school diploma.

Don't even bother. He's just going to say one is "better" than the other without any reasoning behind his points.

Care to tell us why? You're one of the few people I've seen give Pittsburgh the nod over Philly when it comes to art and culture.
