When I first moved here, I was really into the fact that Los Angeles is home to some of the best photo labs in the world, although that becomes less of an issue in a more and more digital world. The best thing about Los Angeles, however, is that no one assumes people like me are supposed to either mainstream or become total losers after a certain age. Salespeople and waiters in LA will not assume that punk rock equals can't afford it. I have my own internalized punk rock issues with accepting success, but Los Angeles is friendly to punk rock success.
This is so true about LA. I can go to Tiffanys with my best friend who has a tattood face and a blue mohawk and get treated like gold
