Comment | There's a deeply ingrained pessimism, cynicism, fatalism, call it what you want, that I find really hard to accept about Glaswegians. I don't know if it's the same in other cities.
By this, I'm not saying everyone should walk around with rose tinted glasses. I'm not even complaining about general criticism of issues (whether that be rubbish on the streets, crime, etc). Cities have issues, and it's up to the people that live here to call it out. That's not what I mean.
I mean more that general "gloom and doom", low expectations feeling that you get from a lot of people. How every planned improvement for the city is met with quite widespread cynicism. |
