So you\u2019re thinking about moving to Columbus<\/a>? I can\u2019t blame you, it\u2019s a great city. But you should come armed. Here are 25 debates you need to have an opinion about; otherwise, you might as well leave the city. Please note: Like politics and religion, these arguments are guaranteed to ruin a good time.<\/p>\n

1. Acorn Bookstore v. Bookloft<\/h2>\n

\"Source:<\/a>

Source: Wikipedia<\/p><\/div>
\nAn age old debate! Both of these brick and mortar bookstores have a lot going on. If you had to boil these two Columbus literary luminaries down to a short description, Acorn would best be known for its collectible niche, while Bookloft would get props for its 32 rooms and maze-like appeal. I prefer Bookloft<\/strong>, but admit it can be disorientating.<\/p>\n

2. Graeter\u2019s Ice Cream v. Jeni\u2019s Ice Cream<\/h2>\n

\"Source:<\/a>

Source: Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams<\/p><\/div>
\nI hesitated to put this on this list. But after reading the comments from my last Columbus post<\/a>, I decide enough people cared about this argument to include it. That being said, I\u2019m going to remind folks that Greater\u2019s is from Cincinnati, NOT Columbus. Based on this fact alone, Jeni\u2019s Splendid Ice Creams<\/strong> wins.<\/p>\n

3. Blue Danube\u2019s Breakfast Burrito v. Jack and Benny\u2019s Gut Buster<\/h2>\n

\"Source:<\/a>

Source: Flickr user WhyAmIKeenan<\/p><\/div>
\nI\u2019ll admit I\u2019m biased. I will pick Blue Danube\u2019s breakfast burrito<\/strong> every time. Why? It\u2019s filling. On the other hand, the Gut Buster doesn\u2019t bust my gut, even if it too is tasty.<\/p>\n

4. North Campus v. South Campus<\/h2>\n

\"The<\/a>

The Ohio State Univeristy<\/p><\/div>
\nIs there really any debate here? South Camps, right? Right? Okay, maybe there is some room for questioning. It feels as if South Campus has the numbers, but that\u2019s probably just because the majority of people are forced to live there (or were in my time). Winner: South Campus<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

5. Alive v. The Other Paper<\/h2>\n

\"Source:<\/a>

Source: Wikipedia<\/p><\/div>
\nI wish this still mattered. TOP is gone, and the original Alive\u2014the non-sanitized version anyway\u2014is also gone. It was a great debate though. Which alternative paper did you get your news from? Alive<\/strong> was my alternative rag of choice, mostly because TOP\u2019s snark was too over-the-top for me.<\/p>\n

6. Smokin\u2019 Joe\u2019s Crust v. Whatever Hound Dog\u2019s Other Crust Is<\/h2>\n

\"Source:<\/a>

Source: Hound Dog’s 3 Degree Pizza<\/p><\/div>
\nIs this even a question? Do you like garlic butter? Then there you go, order the Smokin\u2019 Joe\u2019s Crust<\/strong>. Debate solved. Of course, there are those who will disagree with me. They might be communists, though.<\/p>\n

7. Merion Village v. German Village<\/h2>\n

\"Source:<\/a>

Source: Wikipedia<\/p><\/div>
\nI spent a lot of time in Merion Village and German Village when I lived in Columbus. My general thought was that Merion Village wanted to encroach on German Village, while German Village wanted to keep its neighborhood lines static. If I had to pick between the two, I\u2019d rather live in Merion Village<\/strong>. It\u2019s a bit more grungy, which you can read as \u201creal\u201d.<\/p>\n

8. Polaris v. Easton<\/h2>\n

\"Source:<\/a>

Source: Wikipedia<\/p><\/div>
\nIndoor versus outdoor? This is what you get with a debate between Polaris and Easton. Easton, some argue, is all about atmosphere, while Polaris is about being a mall. Easton<\/strong> is my mall of choice.<\/p>\n

9. Schiller Park v. Goodale Park<\/h2>\n

\"Source:<\/a>

Source: Wikipedia<\/p><\/div>
\nIn the grand scheme of things these two parks are relatively close to each other. Schiller Park, located in German Village, hosts Shakespeare in the Park (If you haven\u2019t been to one of these you really should), while Goodale Park, in Victorian Village, is home of Music in the Park\u2014another must see. While Goodale has nice lily pads, Schiller Park<\/strong> easily takes this one.<\/p>\n

10. Northstar Garden Burger v. Whole World Broccoli Burger<\/h2>\n

\"Source:<\/a>

Source: Flickr user ColumbusCameraOp<\/p><\/div>
\nMy money is on (and in the pockets of) Northstar<\/strong>. But the Whole World Broccoli Burger is one heck of a veggie burger.<\/p>\n

11. Football v. Any Other Sport<\/h2>\n

\"Source:<\/a>

Source: Wikipedia<\/p><\/div>
\nIt\u2019s safe to say Columbus is predominantly a football town, but that doesn\u2019t mean there aren\u2019t other sports teams. What about the Blue Jackets and the Crew? How about the the Clippers? All these other teams are drowned out all the time. I\u2019ve sometimes wondered if it\u2019s a self perpetuating situation: Media thinks Columbus likes football, writes about football, people read about football, people think they only like football. In the end this doesn\u2019t really matter–football<\/strong> wins.<\/p>\n

12. Columbus v. Cleveland v. Cincinnati<\/h2>\n

\"Source:<\/a>

Source: Wikipedia<\/p><\/div>
\nLive in the Ohio long enough and some form of this debate will pop up. People love to compare The Three C\u2019s. Being from Cincinnati, I have to say Cleveland sucks or risk being disowned. Being said, Columbus<\/strong> is better than both Cleveland and Cincinnati, which both feel like cities stuck in the past.<\/p>\n

13. Stauf\u2019s v. Cup O\u2019 Joe<\/h2>\n

\"Source:<\/a>

Source: Stauf’s Coffee Roasters<\/p><\/div>
\nI don\u2019t think there is any real debate here. The best coffee in Columbus comes from Yeah, Me Too in Clintonville. But if you do want to argue over the second best, be my guest. I\u2019d take a pitting hot cup from Stauf\u2019s<\/strong> any day.<\/p>\n

14. Studio 35 v. Drexel Theater<\/h2>\n

\"Source:<\/a>

Source: Wikipedia<\/p><\/div>
\nI should mention this first: To the best of my knowledge, Drexel Theatre is actually in Bexeley, not Columbus. But it is close enough that I can let that slide, at least this once. While I love Studio 35, Drexel<\/strong> is better in almost every way. I should also mention that people who go to Studio 35 don\u2019t know how to keep their mouth shut during a movie. I love you Clintonville, but WTF?<\/p>\n

15. Wendy\u2019s v. White Castle<\/h2>\n

\"Source:<\/a>

Source: White Castles<\/p><\/div>
\nOh, the battle between mediocre fast food! Headquartered in Columbus, White Castle serves up tiny burgers with onions and circular chicken things, while Wendy\u2019s has a full-fledged menu. Is it a coincidence that both have square patties? If I had to pick between the two, I\u2019d go with White Castle<\/strong>. Why? I like irony, and White Castle\u2019s annual Valentine\u2019s Day dinners are just that. Of course, what do I know, I\u2019m a vegetarian, I\u2019ll just go to the Northstar.<\/p>\n

16. El Vaquero v. ????<\/h2>\n

\"Source:<\/a>

Source: El Vaquero<\/p><\/div>
\nIs this even up for debate? Name a place that has better Mexican food in Columbus. I should warn you, you will be mocked. If not by me, then someone in the comment thread. Winner: El Vaquero<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

17. Archie Griffin v. Archie Griffin<\/h2>\n

\"Source:<\/a>

Source: Wikipedia<\/p><\/div>
\nHe won the Heisman Trophy in \u201874 and \u201875. Pick a year and argue. In this case it doesn\u2019t really matter, but most people, including myself, would \u201874 Archie<\/strong> over \u201875 Archie.<\/p>\n

18. Used Kids v. Magnolia Thunderpussy<\/h2>\n

\"Source:<\/a>

Source: Flickr user The Zender Agenda<\/p><\/div>
\nI have a feeling that I know everyone\u2019s favorite record store. I know which one I shopped at, Magnolia Thunderpussy<\/strong>. Come on, the name says it all.<\/p>\n

19. Jeff Smith v. James Thurber<\/h2>\n

\"Source:<\/a>

Source: Wikipedia<\/p><\/div>
\nI included this on my list mostly because I think the folks at Ohioana Library would get a kick out of it. Thurber is one of the country\u2019s most celebrated humorists and cartoonists. Smith<\/strong>, while slow as molasses, is a sequential art genius in his own right; \u201cBone\u201d and \u201cRASL\u201d are exceptional pieces of work. He\u2019s the clear winner.<\/p>\n

20. Gene Smith v. Buckeyes Fans<\/h2>\n

\"OSU<\/a>
\nLike you don\u2019t know this, but Gene Smith is the Athletic Director for The Ohio State University. He\u2019s also the guy people blame for keeping OSU\u2019s football team out of a bowl game last year. If you want to fit in in Columbus, you should have an opinion about this guy. In other words, you should hate him. Buckeye fans<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

21. New Bomb Turks v. Whoever Isn\u2019t the New Bomb Turks<\/h2>\n

\"Source:<\/a>

Source: Gearhead Records<\/p><\/div>
\nIn my opinion, arguing over who Columbus\u2019 most famous band isn\u2019t really an argument. But I\u2019m willing to hear someone out. Who\u2019s the current band challenging the Turks<\/strong>? Times New Viking? Does O.A.R. even count?<\/p>\n

22. Clintonville v. Everyone<\/h2>\n

\"Source:<\/a>

Source: Wikipedia<\/p><\/div>
\nWhen someone asks what the best neighborhood in Columbus is, most people will tell you it\u2019s German Village. I disagree. Don\u2019t get me wrong, it\u2019s nice. I like it. There are some good people there. But Clintonville<\/strong> is where it\u2019s at. Whetstone Park? Farmers\u2019 Market? Incredibly deep sense of community? No inflated housing prices.<\/p>\n

23. Reds v. Indians<\/h2>\n

\"Source:<\/a>

Source: Wikipedia<\/p><\/div>
\nColumbus doesn\u2019t have its own major league baseball team. This means that stickball fans get to pick from either the Cincinnati Reds or the Cleveland Indians. Being the home of the Clippers, Indians<\/strong> fans likely have this one in the bag.<\/p>\n

25. Buckeyes v. Haters<\/h2>\n

\"Source:<\/a>

Source: Wikipedia<\/p><\/div>
\nOSU\u2019s mascot is Brutus Buckeye, an anthropomorphic nut. The most common complaint is that a nut isn\u2019t scary. This is typically followed by someone arguing that an Ohio Buckeye is poisonous (it is). Still, the haters<\/strong> have a point. If you\u2019re sad, just think about the poor fans at Stanford.<\/p>\n
