    The least they can do is hold on to the fuckin' pole on the train so they don't topple over on every regular coming-back-from-work motherfucker in this town. :rolleyes:

    We need a bit more crime- [​IMG]

    Does this mean you don't want me to come back and visit again?

    I never understood such hostility towards tourists. I mean, basically we all are tourists one point or another. You should greet them with a smile. It's what Jesus would do.

    this is true. I have nothing against tourists on principle.
    but I have a lot against the people Prax mentioned who don't brace themselves on subways. the people who just STOP walking in the middle of a crowded street so they can gawk at whatever. the people in those red double decker busses.

    Were the NYPD lining up to arrest the tourists for "quality of life crimes?"

    RIGHT!

    It literally puts a strain on your everyday life. Commuting takes physically longer, etc.

    They are just not well-versed in sharing geographical space- [​IMG]

    This type of thing happens when the U.S. dollar loses value to other currency and vacations to NYC are cheap for foreigners. I remember years ago when the dollar was weak. Someone who ran a restaurant in NYC was joking about how he loves to give the tourists from Europe a hard time by talking quickly and in a bronx accent. It totally confuses them. :)

    I'm sure your transition from east coast to west coast was easier than that of the amish to subway veteran. gotta cut 'em some slack else show our silent proclivities.


    I've got Helena in Sweden. Eleven years since I was there and we still talk dirty on the phone.
