. . . . man, Manhattan is smelling worse than ever. It's no wonder Knick fans are so bitchy... I'd be bitchy too if I constantly had to breath in the scent of a "used diaper filled with Indian food" or "a turd covered in burnt hair".
Wow, you hit it on the head, brother... The city is grimy. And the stench really ripens in the hot summertime, for sure.... Thankfully, I live in a quiet house out in Queens w/ little front yard and trees on my street.... Manhattan is wild. Definitely good times... But in the summer, your body's kind of squirming to leave the city whenever possible.... Hence, I've been in Philly/Jersey shore almost every weekend this summer, and I'm driving back down tomorrow for more kicks. Philly will always be where its at. NYC is cool but it's a lot of hype.
Also, mazel tov on your anniversary, man. Big up.
