Here’s a (not so) fun piece created by a Rochestarian on YouTube.

    This video bothers me. I haven’t exactly pinpointed all the reasons why yet either.

    I think I’m partially upset because the video could’ve done a better job at portraying the poverty situation here in Rochester. It seemed like one of those, “haha, I’m going to be satirical and cute by posting this video” but not really do that great of job.

    Maybe I’m also upset because all I ever see or read are stories associated with Rochester’s negative aspects. I think I will start posting some positive ones.
