Boulder is so much fun.
If the mountains were not there, would Boulder be so much fun?
Id say so, but either way, your question is irrelevant, as mountains are there.
Dumbass.
So sorry for the hypothetical. My point is that people perceive Boulder to be so much fun due to the proximity to the Rockies. The town is full of pompous rich white fake liberals that just cannot understand why everyone doesn't just live off the grid OR smelly hippies OR the children of group #1 who tend to be even bigger assholes than their parents.
ALERT - another hypothetical for your slow neanderthal brain - put MHK in its place and that town would be so much more fun. Taking away the aspects of Boulder that cannot be controlled by its residents (Rockies and propinquity to Denver), the place is pretty damn annoying.
