Trust me, that did not tarnish my view on NYC. Best place I’ve ever been too. I would move there in a second if i had the chance.

That's sweet but I have been here 25 years and I have no idea what the booth folks do. They did give out horrible masks when they were required on the subway. I do think they would call someone if an actual murder was going down but I am not certain about that. Glad you had fun!

Really? I'm always surprised when people visit NYC and have effusive praise for it. What, in your mind, sets it apart from London, Paris, Tokyo, or any other cosmopolitan city?

I’ve always loved cities, loud and noisy and alive. NYC just had an energy to it that I can’t get enough off. I’ve been a few times, and done/seen all the touristy stuff, but also just walked around and explored quieter areas. The people, the architecture, the multiculturalism, the food, all stand out in my memories of NYC. I’ve been to Paris, and also loved that, but they are two very different animals. NYC is much more alive. I’m very into art and history and both NYC and Paris have an abundance of that, which is probably one of the main reasons they call to me.

It is completely unique in the world, as are those cities. Paris is a total dump right now though
