"a curious place to launch"

this may come as a surprise to you but there are people who live in LA and start businesses here because this is where we live, not because we are choosing to "launch" here.

i just checked out the site, they service SM, venice, MDR, basically where all the startups are.

I get that snark is more important than facts or logic, but it might surprise you that businesses often choose to launch in markets most suited to their product, not where they live.

it's not that snark is more important, just more fun.
