Things I don't like about New York
- City hall is closed off, it says authorized personnel only.
- Garbage piling up in the streets.
- It’s too hot in the summer.
- Why do they allow helicopters to fly over the city?
- All the bankers on Wall St. seem like really terrible people.
- Some parts smell really bad, especially garbage.
- Hotel rooms are too small.
- “They closed everything real down.”
- “Life cafe” shut down.
- Village Voice shut down.
- Paradise garage shut down.
The #1 thing I don’t like is that I don’t live here.
