Somewhat related, if for the other side of the country....

We went on a US trip in between Trump presidencies, and my wife and I's first reaction to getting out of the taxi in NYC was: Why does it smell like piss?

In the 6 block walk to the hotel our question was answered multiple times by people pissing in the street, the gutter, and the alleyways.

tl;dr - NYC smells like piss because of all the piss

    Smell of piss aside, I'm tempted to go back... if only for these garlic knot things from Carnigie Pizza

    They are like garlic.rar or some sort of garlic tardis or something because I swear there was more garlic inside these things than their outside dimension allowed for. I am legitimately drooling like pavlovs dogs right now. Please send help, or better yet several dozen garlic knots.

    Aren't there cameras everywhere nowadays? Why are these people not in jail? Seems weird for the city that made broken windows theory popular(or any city really).

    Businesses get pissy about anyone needing to go to the bathroom if they're not a customer.

    I never cared if I was on camera, nobody looks until after something serious happened. Pissing definitely ain't that serious.
