Has anyone seen this new trend of kids as soon as the subway doors open, they throw themselves on the ground and pretend like they have passed out or something is wrong? Like they AGGRESSIVELY throw themselves on the floor. I was on the L train today and some kid (Latino I assume) threw himself […]

I know sex and the city was a thing generations ago But when my millennial ass moved here after school, West Village was always extremely out of reach, even among my most striver of friends who worked in finance and biglaw. 20-something girls living there were completely nonexistent But now it’s a thing? Did it
Yesterday (6/20 at 5 pm), a man on the 4 train suddenly started beating the shit out of two older men, including my 70 year old father. A guy in a blue T-shirt immediately stepped in to subdue him. I’m horrified to think what would have happened if he had not been there. He left

I’ve been here almost two years and I swear every time I mention rent or groceries to people who’ve been here longer, they look at me like I’m being dramatic. What got me thinking about this was my two friends who moved here 8 years ago the way they talk about their early NY days
It’s feels like every week I see someone post about young people waiting in line for something stupid. I get it, I’m in my late 30s and I would never wait on line for a HeyTea or a Froyo, but have people considered that this is the closest thing to a 3rd space for college

For example, I love going to the movies. I also have lots of family and friends in the Hudson Valley, so I leave the city fairly often, and when I do, I sometimes go to the movies with them. Finding a theater where audience members all have proper theater etiquette can be a real struggle
Before anyone gets concerned, I want to clarify this isn’t anything worrying or shady LOL.

Their mini dumplings tasted really good, as well as their crab & pork soup dumplings.
