I don’t know what’s sadder: that people really think these only New York things, or that I can live just fine without all of it.
I’m not saying I take any of these things for granted. I love being able to rely (somewhat) on a subway to take my drunk ass where I need to be and keep me far away from the wheel of a car, but I wouldn’t mind getting away from pretty much everything else on that list. I’ve had enough view, rage, bar hopping and interesting concerts to last me forevs. I think New York is swell for like, two or three years, maybe, but growing up and living your whole miserable life here just isn’t right. I’m sure that if I leave I’ll come back eventually, and maybe I’ll enjoy it more. But the rent is just too damn high for now.
Pretty much agree.
