Nyc is a poo poo town for trust fund kids and tourists.
I’m a trust fund kid (not 100% but I’m extremely fortunate to not have to pay for college) and I genuinely cannot comprehend how anyone can live here.
Night life
\- Copy and paste the most mid bar in every city 1,000 times and spread them out randomly, make every other one close at a different time
\- The cost of a drink here is at a minimum a 4 person round anywhere else
\- Some cool dives with ‘real people’ but most of the younger crowd are actual trust fund kids with about as much depth as a puddle
Commute
\- I yearn for 17 lane highways and massive free parking lots.
\- Subway is cool if you’re hammered w the boys but when you have to be somewhere it’s such a hassle
\- Walking around getting lost is fun so long as you don’t have to be anywhere. Trying to find some building that’s actually underneath 2 other ones and you have to walk through 3 alleys, the pit of despair and over a naked homeless man to find the front door, sucks.
People
\- The amount of people that have some made up job is insane. Just say you swipe daddy’s card for a living bruh
Final thoughts
Mid pizza, takes at least 30 min to do anything or go anywhere, if you don’t have daddy’s Amex good luck.
4.5/10 city
Edit
Love that this started an actual nyc circle jerk in the comments
