I always feel FOMO because I’ve wanted to live here my whole life and now I have for the last few years and I always feel like I’m wasting it by being at home so much on my off days. I work in an office in Times Square five days a week and on my

I went to Marquee last night with promoters I was fine and was going to leave in 20 minutes with my friend. The next thing I know I wake up at Lennox ER – ten mins away. They said I was picked up in an ambulance – I have no recollection. I am confused because

I don’t have anyone in my life. I’m just a middle aged cat lady. I’ll be having ect treatment 2x a week. It would be on e64th Manhattan. They will not do it unless someone takes me by the hand and walks me downstairs to the street. I can’t pay the 2 or 3 hour

Weird experience at the Plaza, wondering if I did something wrong? For context I grew up lower income & this was my first time going to a restaurant of this caliber. Trying to learn for next time. Had a reservation for tea at the Plaza yesterday with a friend. As I walked up to the

Hung out with some people. There was a girl who was from out of state studying at NYU (paying out of pocket may I add). We went to go somewhere else and she proudly proclaimed that she refuses to pay for the subway because “no real New Yorkers pay for the subway”. She then mentioned

God damn. Canada Goose. Montcler. It’s 60 degrees (yesterday) and every fucking train and shop is blasting heat. I’m sweating through my shit. submitted by /u/Career-Acceptable [link] [comments]

Hi- I’m curious about nyc residents pinch points in their communities and everyday lives, especially around where community and policy (institutional or legislative) conflict. Some examples that come to mind are the church that started charging rent to a longstanding food pantry, displacing them; the constant struggle with police parking on pedestrian sidewalks; the (Brooklyn?)

Saw a similar thread and curious for any authentic recommendation in the city. submitted by /u/namriach [link] [comments]

I know 3 other people that got this. You lose your voice completely for like more than a week and you get this REALLY bad cough that switches constantly between dry and wet. You also just feel generally unwell. I don’t think it’s just the common cold. Anyone else get it or know someone who

For example, people on their phones moving slowly up the stairs (not speaking to someone’s ability to walk fast but specifically them being slow because they’re texting), people on the subway listening to music or tiktoks or doing a FaceTime without headphones, people hogging the entire sidewalk and stuff. The other day a woman walked

I’ve lived in the same apartment for 3.5 years and this August the restaurant we live above extended their hours til 4am on the weekend. At first it seemed they were going for a lounge vibe but now it has turned into a full blown club with dancehall nights, bottle girls, etc. The music is

I’ve lived here more than half my life and I literally just saw a man in broad fucking daylight smoking crack in Essex St station on the platform. I told some homeless outreach workers about it and all they said was they called the cops and they hopped on the next train that came. WTF

I work in Union Square on the top floor of a high-rise office building. My company’s floor is split between two buildings (e.g. 234 and 238). This morning I took the elevator up in the 234 lobby. When I was leaving a little while ago, however, I decided to take the elevator in building 238,

was leaving my office in flatiron yesterday when i saw a homeless guy that i’ve seen a dozen times stumble down the street with a bloodied knife. it didn’t really click for me in the moment, i kind of locked up, and just waited for him to pass. i can’t sleep, i can’t get the

Anybody else think that the subway really saps any of the excitement out of a good date? I’ve started to make excuses to not ride the subway home at the same time as my dates when we realize we’re headed back in the same direction, since I’d rather take the next train and decompress or

Let me start off by saying that I love all these East Side neighborhoods. But.. It seems to me that the neighborhoods on the West Side tend to be much nicer than those in the East Side. A few examples are: West Village vs East Village. Chelsea vs. Kips Bay. Tribeca vs LES. Even midtown,

Doesn’t matter if you’re a tourist or a local, or what airport it is (we’ll allow Newark), once you walk out of the gate and into the airport, there’s a certain energy that very few cities in the world have. You’ll see airport personnel with a coffee cup, or another employee laughing and giving someone

I’m starting to get really annoyed with stores not marking prices. I ask the price and the clerks seem annoyed that I even bother, like I’m petty or miserly. We’ll today, I didn’t ask. I didn’t to be judged. But when I got the bill, all I could think is: “$13.50 for a plain grilled

Hi everyone, I’m (23F) French and on vacation by myself in NYC and I feel so fucking alone. I can’t meet people, I feel overwhelmed and don’t know what to do. And when I see plenty of people in the street being all in groups laughing, or lovers taking a walk peacefully, I feel this
