I learned a LOT in New York City. I'll list here just a few of them.
1. What is J-Walking. (Intentionally left as a period. WordZap! haha Kelli)
2. Stop Light are more like traffic guides not laws.
3. For the Biggest city in America, it has AMAZINGLY few restrooms. (And they are Restrooms not Bathrooms. Saying bathroom will give you a dirty look)
4. It's not illegal to buy illegal items. Only to Sell. haha
5. Manna's Soul Food charges by the lb so don't get the disgusting heavy mashed potatoes.
6. Buy everything in a different city or in China Town to save $.
7. Don't do anything to anyone that could possibly indicate that you are part of a gang. You will be shot or at least threatened. haha (That never actually happened just to ease your mind)
8. Make sure when you say the word "Tourist" you don't use a kentucky accent and say "Terrorist" (Yeah... that one DID happen)
9. Never buy anything in China Town for the price they ask. Always bargain.
10. Never Buy Yugioh cards in China Town. They are fake. All of them. (No, not me. It was Nathan Garbowski who bought a bunch of fake cards for a lot of money.)
11. New York is the top. That's what hard for me to grasp. I see like tv shows on tv all the time and its always New York. living here in Glasgow I just see it as such a foreign thing but ppl were walkin along the streets asking ppl to be extras in Spiderman 3. It was amazing.
12. What is a manners? Honking, Bumping, pushing, shoving, kicking, biting, screaming and eating people is a common everyday practice. (Most of those anyways)
13. Try not to look like a terrorist... I mean Tourist. This includes getting off the bus in shock staring at the buildings.
14. Don't ever make the "Dumb look"
15. Don't ever point it out when someone IS making the "Dumb look"
16. When going through a metal detector, don't put a bomb in the basket, go through the detector and expect to get your belongings back.
17. Katherine McPhee became McIll with the McPhever, also commonly called the McFlu. She went McHome and Mcdied while making McFood. The Police found her McBody lying on the McFloor and sold her McName to McDonalds where they are McMaking McMoney every McTime someone says McBlank. ( )
18. 5 lb chocolate bars are big.
19. I can't stop on 19.... so
20. Kentucky is Home Sweet Home |
