Your youtube selection is alway hilarious !
I am also sharing some on my blog
xo
It works in Paris too ! So true that I laughed for 5 minutes ! I can add “Walking slowly and stop in the middle of the sidewalk” or “Coming in the subway with all my luggage”.
Too funny! Loved this!
this made me laugh, too! and made me miss ny terribly!
I think all of these things are true for every major city! Though the metrocard thing totally threw me. NO other city in the US has you swipe a transit card like a credit card! Weird. The first time I visited new york I actually watched people use the turnstiles before I ever got on the subway. I didn’t want to announce my tourist status to the world. :)
“Culture peaked in the 80s” — agreed!
Istanbul, the same. Just change the subways with metrobus :P
And once I even stopped the guy who was about to get into the cab that I’d been waiting for the last 15 mins. I literally tore his tiny hands off from the cab’s door with my poisonous mouth. Dude, that cab was mine.
hahaha! So true!
I found the Metrocard bit especially funny – it took me a while to master that one to get through on the first try :-)
Only mildly related: have you heard of the Mapping Manhattan project?
? I think it’s super interesting:

omg – that was absolutely hilarious because it is so right on! Another would be slow-walkers, three abreast on the sidewalk.
Pretty much how to piss off a Londoner too! :P
So true! And I second aa31b8d4-3390-11e0-b088-000bcdcb471e 2:53 PM that we need an “express lane” on the sidewalk for NYers!
These are good to know since we Bostonians live to piss off New Yorkers !!
I am very happy I didn’t do any of these when I was in New York :)
Love,

I think this is probably true of every big city.

You know that phrase, No matter where you go, there you are? I call bullshit.
