Fuck me, All that going on and it still manages to be a boring shithole.

To be fair though, Most of that list is just a big pile of nothing.

Voted "NO". Not boring for me, I don't live there and don't go there very often!

Right now I think it would be exciting to go to Hamilton.

Just haven't got a reason to go there!

Come to think of it, right now for me, it would be exciting to go "anywhere"!

why do we give a shit about what De Villiers says ... the guys a freaking lunatic that slips his muzzle occasionally to say yet another stupidly offensive sound bite for the media to grab and run with ...

Anywhere you live is what you make it, I personally find Invercargill has a lot more to do for me than Christchurch does, but I fully understand that alot of people will think of Invercargill as a shithole ... yet strangely enough i dont give a shit :P

You can bypass it right? And left too I believe. How does it compare to Ashhurst?

**Headbanger** · 12th September 2009, 18:34

And Hamiltonions HTFU.

Well I’ve lived in a few countries around the world, they all have there up and downs. To say a town is boring you have to have some expectations of it.
If you expect to go out and have a bit of fun, drinking and dancing – the Tron has a good selection of pubs and bars all in walking distance from each other, within cheap taxi rides from hotels. It may not rate compared to wellington or Auckland, but it's safer and cheaper. It maybe full of young hot students getting totally pissed, uninhibited and rather unfussy (that must hold some attraction for a few). It seems to get it’s fair share of good bands too. It seems to hold it’s end up well for sports and entertainment.

As a place to live; in and around Hamilton is spoilt for places to relax and play sport, awesome walks and cycling, very green. Then there’s plenty of places to fish, surf and swim 30 mins out of town at Raglan, not to mention the recreation ground of the Coromandel being on our door step.

There’s no worries about flooding, tornado’s, tsunamis, volcanoes or earthquakes – that’s the kind of boring I like.

But the best thing about Hamilton is the access to some of the best bike riding in the world. It’s fantastic.

I am a Hamiltonian - born here.

At the end of the day, a place is just a place. How you want to see it is entirely up to you.
A place is what you make of it.
A place is the people you are with.

Hamilton is my place. I like it here.
It is fine if you think it is a boring shit hole. I don't know you and I don't care.
