It was announced this morning that 麻豆传媒映画is officially out of the running to be the home of Amazon鈥檚 second headquarters, or HQ2 as the blogosphere like to call it. #uDontDeserveUs
This leaves Toronto as the sole Canadian city and Los Angeles as the only West Coast city still under consideration.
But is anyone really surprised? Besides the lack of affordable housing, 麻豆传媒映画just seemed desperate and needy. Always seeking affirmation from 鈥淢ost Liveable City in the World鈥� lists and legions of opinion columnists who feel the need to explain why they will or won鈥檛 be living here, 麻豆传媒映画is one high-maintenance, self-absorbed city. Of course there are other reasons Amazon didn鈥檛 present 麻豆传媒映画with a rose. Let us count the ways.
- On their first date, Amazon noticed 麻豆传媒映画spent most of the time on its cellphone, texting other cities and constantly taking selfies and putting rabbit ears and whiskers on itself with Snapchat in a way that looked vaguely racist. It was as if Amazon wasn鈥檛 even there.
- While walking along the seawall, 麻豆传媒映画told Amazon that they shared a special bond and that it only felt like its true self when it was with Amazon. But Amazon later learned that 麻豆传媒映画had said that to Portland the day before.
- During awkward silences, and there were a lot, 麻豆传媒映画had this annoying habit of asking Amazon what it was thinking.
- 麻豆传媒映画snores in bed.
- Never once did 麻豆传媒映画ask Amazon about itself. It was always me, me, me. I did this. I did that. I hosted the Olympics. Look at our mountains. Look at our oceans. It was pathetic.
- 麻豆传媒映画constantly would bring up Hootsuite. Hootsuite this, Hootsuite that. Well if you love Hootsuite so much, why don鈥檛 you marry it, Amazon finally replied. That shut 麻豆传媒映画up for a while.
- 麻豆传媒映画thought it was sexy to show Amazon its Yaletown and Granville Strip. Like a lot.
- 罢丑颈蝉:听
- Once, 麻豆传媒映画texted Amazon, 鈥淵ou up?鈥� Like totally out of the blue, after weeks of never calling. It was like 麻豆传媒映画ghosted Amazon but suddenly, at two in the morning on a Wednesday, it was available and hoping to 鈥渃hill.鈥� No thanks. And to answer your other question, Vancouver. How does Amazon like its eggs in the morning? Unfertilized, thank you. 聽
- Toronto is a meddling, conniving, little b****
