New York is not the world's biggest city!

When I was in the Sears Tower last year all the publicity called it the “world’s tallest building”. It isn’t. They’re wrong

Acording to the record books, the Petronas (SP?) Towers are taller. However, They are taller only by a few inches and because of an antenna that makes up a ridiclously high percentage of their height.

If someone were to glue a dead frog to the roof of the Sears Tower it would once again be the tallest building in the world.

If you ask me (I know you didn’t), the Sears Tower still has the bragging rights.

Not that this has anything to do with NY.

Oh I see the Petronas Towers have already been addressed. I suppose I should read all the posts before putting in my two cents.

Forgive my rookie mistake. It wont happen again.

Now that we’ve settled the issue of the oldest university. How about starting on which is the most pretentious

This from www.wm.edu:

**Founded in 1693, William and Mary is the second oldest educational institution in the U.S. Although Harvard began operation first, William and Mary’s antecedents actually predate those of the Massachusetts institution.

The College is the only U.S. institution to have a Royal Charter. **

Take that you pickle fuckers!

Jesus Christmas, I’m slow! You are Metalhead. I will not mention all the different ways I pronounced your name in my head before I reached that startlingly obvious conclusion.

Okay so the thread started out with New york not being the biggest ( Jacksonville,Florida is) and now has almost comepletely devoted its self to how insulting “picklefuck” is (mind you that i’m paraphrasing here) God How I love The SDMB
