Why Charlottesville, Virginia might be annoying:

    It gave us the Dave Matthews Band.
    It is the county seat of a county that it isn't even located in.
    The city's economy, shopping and cultural events all revolve around the university.
    They have an obsession with their most famous resident, Thomas Jefferson.
    Their John Paul Jones Arena is not named after the legendary bass player or the Revolutionary War hero, but rather some rich guy who donated money for its construction.

Why Charlottesville, Virginia might not be annoying:

    It is the hometown of Presidents James Madison, James Monroe and most notably Thomas Jefferson.
    Jefferson's house is still located here, intact and is a big tourist attraction.
    It didn't get roughed-up like a lot of other southern cities did during the Civil War.
    They have a great downtown pedestrian mall that is one of the longest in the country.
    Georgia O'Keeffe was an art teacher at the university.
