    Study: even pigeons hate M-ssholes.

    Fun fact buried in the story: uptown and downtown rats in NYC form two distinct genetic clusters. For anyone familiar with the city this is the funniest thing they will hear today.

        Pizza Rat was working (he is hopefully WFH these days) the staircase to the L train platform at the First Avenue station (BMT Canarsie Line), which is located at the intersection of First Avenue and East 14th Street. This is solidly downtown, being a stone's throw from the East Village.

          Those Upper East Side rats are total snobs and no one likes them. The Bushwick rats liked Long Island before it was cool. The Kew Gardens rats had just landed their first-ever transcon line when the pandemic hit and now they might not make rent for the crash pad next month. And of course the New Jersey and Staten Island rats are the only REAL New York rats.

            You forgot the Bed-Sty rats. Why do you think it's called the Black Death?

                I have spent more time in Boston, DC, Portland, Phoenix, Las Vegas, Tucson, and San Francisco, not to mention Paris, Rome, and London, than I have in NYC, so I am not the ideal spokesman for the city.

                My overdetermining impressions of NYC are (1) it is the greatest city in the world, and (2) I do not like it.

                  New York has the best "mixed" culture of any city in the world - Berlin and, from what I've heard, Singapore are very close, but I could not live there. It's one of those "great to visit for a long weekend, but wouldn't want to stay" cities, right up there with Boston and both Portlands.

                    Entrepôts have the great cosmopolitan cultures: New York, New Orleans, Venice, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Singapore, Tokyo, Athens, Rotterdam, Tangier, Barcelona, Marseille.

                    Of those, New York, London, Shanghai and Tokyo are also huge world cities. In my limited opinion, New York has a far more international and vibrant culture than London. I cannot speak for the others having never been in Asia.

                      I haven't been (it's on my list), but from what I've read I don't think of Tokyo as particularly "mixed" outside of a couple neighborhoods where the Americans, Canadians, and Brits congregate. I've read that there are bars and restaurants in Tokyo that will outright turn away gaijin, because they don't want to embarrass their Japanese staff and clientele who don't speak good English (the whole "save face" thing in North Asian culture).

                      I agree with you on London vs. NYC. The Indians have lived there for years, and they're still treated like sh*t by some Brits, even if they were born in the UK.

                          Years ago, during an airport delay, I chatted with a guy from Green Bay who bought me a Jäger shot. That's how I knew he was definitely a Wisconsin native. He was also very drunk and had lost his smartphone.

                          I have never been to Milwaukee though. I assume it would be as "flatland boring" as OKC, but I made that mistake in Omaha, which turned out to be pretty neat.

                            It's very diverse. A lot of Japanese cars. Not so many F-150s. Change is good, I guess.
