Everytime i date a girl from jersey or Pennsylvania. They always ask me if new york is super dangerous which is mind boggling to me because i lived in nyc for 25 years (been here since i was 4) and i never felt like nyc was that dangerous. Put it this way, i grew up

I just got declined by 4 separate cabs that I had to chase down, either because I had a kid with me, or because it wasn’t “worth it” You used to just get in a cab, tell them where you wanna go, and head off, not sit there fucking negotiating with a cab driver in

The first couple in our friend group just had a baby. She’s 31 and he’s 29. They’ve both lived in the city since undergrad but she’s from the south and is the last of her friends from back home to have a kid by far (she doesn’t mind at all, just finds it funny). Meanwhile

Sometimes in otherwise vibrant/bustling neighborhoods (e.g. Greenwich Village), a commercial storefront will stay empty for many years. For example, the former Duane Reade at 9th and Broadway (5+ years), or the former Pain Quotidien on 8th Street (3+ years). Every other unit around these is gainfully occupied. Are they just waiting for a high-$, long-term

It’s a bit morbid so I understand if nobody wants to participate but I think it’s an interesting hypothetical with how densely populated nyc is and how difficult escaping would be among the chaos. Obviously car would be off the table since you’d be gridlocked with the amount of people trying to drive and flee

Idk if this is allowed here?? Anyway on Friday December 6th I went out with some friends. Long story short, I don’t know how or what happened but apparently I left the club we were at and ended up passing out on the sidewalk somewhere in the LES. It would’ve been after 2:30 AM. I

I’m not even in NYC. Currently living in Chicago, but NYC is definitely a dream. Was wondering if this would on be the table. And when people say it was 24/7, what do they mean? Is it that you could walk at all hours of the night? Or just that all the places are open

Basically, the title. Wondering if there is some limit imposed on how much individual investigations can cost. submitted by /u/BestKey [link] [comments]

Thinking about doing it at 6th and 54th street, would be nice to see some support for all the victims submitted by /u/Libralegend [link] [comments]

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

if i dont have this incentive, sometimes i dont leave the home! isn’t that sad lol but i cant be the only one can i? ? submitted by /u/ProudReaction2204 [link] [comments]

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

May be my age is getting to me 😂 but this is just basic etiquettes when you use public transportation. submitted by /u/Nice_Contribution_67 [link] [comments]

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
