I'd agree with that statement completely.
Chicago Pizza = Balls. Gross Balls.
But, Chicagoans > New Yorkers.

New Yorkers > Everybody else
New York is the best city in the United States hands down, the most infamous trends and slang/lingo came from NYC. New York is has changed since the 90s since the NYPD stepped up their game and recruited more Hispanic and African American officers to "relate" to the public. But like Kid Nyce said, just don't provoke the wrong ones, you might catch a hollow tip in your frame. Dj RJT and Lucid make sure you check out some of the clubs in NYC and and the locations mentioned on this thread. For a rich cultural experience make sure to visit Arthur Avenue in the Bronx (little italy) and Chinatown in downtown Manhattan and if you want to run into some truly "unique" characters go to the lower east side manhattan at a place known as the village. And if you're still unsure of NY, just wear a level 3 vest under your shirt. |

NYC PIZZA > CHICAGO PIZZA
ooh's and ahh's |
amen. Chicago pizza is disgusting.
as for New Yorkers, i love 'em... but i can definitely do without the ones that wear their pride like flaming homosexuals; you know, that obnoxious over the top attitude where they just feel the need to remind every single person in a 20-foot radius that they're gay, or, in this case... a New Yorker. |

Apparently every single New Yorker I've ever met falls into that category... :(
I really, really struggled in NYC... The only city that even comes CLOSE to comparing to it with regard to just how much of a douche I felt like is Miami.
I am, however, excited to see parts of the city that I haven't before (The Village in particular), and hopefully thanks to Myra and perhaps some TA's, my opinion will change. But the trips I've taken to the city before now have seriously been some of the worst "vacations" of my life... |

I must say that New York is definitely a very stressful and big city to live and work in. I visited for a weekend and was like, "wow". I loved the energy and the architecture. I can see why new Yorkers think they’re the because they live and survive in that city. But at the same time, you need to be making like around 200k+ a year to be comfortably living in the nicer parts of the city. So yea, unless u are one of those people, just stfu, because ur probably living in a suburb or jersey and talking . And if you’re living right in the city, sharing a studio with a roommate doesn’t count either:p
I know NY is a great city and it's huge, and it's crazy, and bla bla bla, but I, too get really tired of the same old "Well in New York..." bull. Or having dumb little pissing contests about whether or not you're a real New Yorker. |

Drag kidnyce down towards my place if you guys want to hang out next week. Barosoap and I live on 14th St. on the east side, so if you're already down there exploring and want to meet after I get out of work, let me know. My schedule's not looking really hectic this week and next, so I would probably be able to meet up by 6:30-7. |

yo i'm from new york - this is the most balla ever cuz i sprinkle diamonds on all my food, even my dooky be ballin
i think alot of the pride is stuck with the people who believe they've successfully was able to live in it. What about those who was born and bred in nyc? In this case, I'm living where my dad lived as a teenager and that's real talk. Same building same apartment just completely gentrified.
as for jizzle's comment about living with a roommate etc...i'm not making 200K and I live on my own? I pay rent and bills like any other mofo and yes work kicks my ass, but that doesn't mean i don't have time to gabble or I've grown this nyc-mentality that i'm a baller and no my dooky doesn't bling!
BUT...why is it that any given choice career you choose which is born in NYC, established and professional, pays only so much within major cities where as less populated states like Arizona, New Mexico, etc will pay close to triple for you to relocate there? Even with the cost of living being down in those states, why are these professionals receiving preferable treatment during the candidate process? It's a testament to will and experience where as my experience as an Analyst here in nyc may mean that i'm better suited for the position compared to an Analyst from Ohio? Maybe this is the so-called complex where new yorkers see themselves as the ??? It is believed that this city in itself holds a reputation, a marketable one at that, which is something hard to escape and easily categorize into that "new yorkers are all about their city". |

what do you mean by that? i live in the village and have yet to run into "unique" characters. no need to take a field trip here if you are looking for "interesting" people.
as for native new yorkers, i have no patience for those who know nothing about anywhere else in this country...completely confused as to where oregon is on the US map, but can point to the czech republic on a world map :conf:. in comparison to nyc i was basically raised in the boondocks of america and i can see why new yorkers love their city, it has a ton to offer that other american cities cannot. on the other hand, i wouldn't go and say it's the best place ever. |
