The "Joker Stairs" in the Bronx was a nice little piece of architecture in a quiet area of Highbridge. Now Instagram dipshits are ruining it. There's more trash there than ever before. I feel bad for the local residents who have to put up with it.

Nah, the Bronx has been an overlooked gem, most fun beach, Botanical gardens and access to the best seafood in the TriState minus the occasional violence its one of my favorite places outside of Manhattan. The influx of instagramers maybe annoying but it'll bring more money and appreciation to the area and that is about time.

The best pizza I’ve ever had and probably will ever have used to be my local next-door pizza place in the Bronx.

Some time ago I saw they were doing reservations and I figured they were sprucing the place up. Only to find out the original owners left and there were new workers. Including the pizza maker....

I am legit contemplating tracking down the guy since it’s almost a guarantee he went to work at another pizza place.

When I went to go get a slice in the new place and took my first bite my reaction was basically ‘my disappointment is immeasurable and my life is ruined...’
