    What pretender cities see as congested, used-syringe-filled waterways, New Yorkers see as a perfectly viable commercial airline landing strip.

    30. Because we know Sex and the City is a crock of shit. ²

    31. Because we know Friends is a crock of shit.

    If this list were 25 years earlier, that'd so be Diff'rent Strokes and The Jeffersons.

    Thank you

    though, I was completely crushed when I learned that All in the Family, The Jeffersons AND Taxi were all filmed in Los freaking Angeles. Crushed!

    Because of the 6 hour grace period between when we have a snowstorm, and it's still all nice and clean and peaceful, and when it turns into a nasty, stained, wet, slushy mess.

    This made me inexplicably sad. Perhaps it's just that some asshole rang my buzzer at 5:30 this morning and I can't sleep anyway and this snow! Anyway, it all seems both wonderful and entirely intolerable.

    You've also got the patience of Job if you're willing to wait for all that sediment to settle each time you pour yourself a glass. Ugh...

    Because the idea of "New York" has died.*

    *I'll be crass in stating that 1998, and, in particular, 2006 unleashed the mouth-breathing masses onto the city, looking to find a place for them. Those who made it, congratulations. Those that didn't, get the fuck on. Those two years, specifically, lent me mornings of seeing fresh grads crying into the shoulder of their Patagonia's, trying to decipher the "how" and "why" aspect of their lives. Things were far too easy during those times, and the juniors not only ravaged the city with their voting power, but also prolonged the "I'm extremely important, and have a great deal to offer this world" thinking. I love New York because Entitlement is Finally Fucking Dying.

    P.S. I really enjoyed my cigarette tonight with the 30mph winds and intense snow drifts, you bags of fuck. Our bars fucking suck.
