4. I gotta say this as an outsider...

I'm from CO. But my Dad and his family are Chicago Irish. But I occasionally work with Boston Irish. Totally different from Chicago Irish. Boston Irish tend to be downright mean sometimes. Is this a Boston Irish thing? Or is this just a Boston thing? Because I get that snark from them all the time.

I'm not trying to be rude or alienate. I just have had bad experience with Bostonians. It's probably a clashing of Colorado attitude vs Boston attitude. But what that reporter wrote has pretty much been my experience with Boston people. In other words, I just thought that's how people from Boston were.
