Lots to like about NYC; your trash issue is an embarrassment (New York: trains, trailer)

Understood. Can't wait until NYC pulls itself out of these embarrassing situations.

That a woman was recently attacked on your subway to the point that a rat was INSIDE her pants and required her to drop them to the point of nudity is a god damn shame. I want do badly to love your city but until you fix the trash and subsequent rodent problem, I'll make fun of you. Stop the trash bag and litter madness. This could/should be the best city. But as long as civilians are being attacked by rodents, no effing way.

My kind of city!


Pile it HIGH baby!!!


With all NYC has to offer, you have to pull this stunt? Really?


The world does work the way we want it to. Somethings are better if you accept them as is. Rats, trash, whatever......it is what it is.

Meh, Frankfurt Germany sounds more suited for you OP.

Until the war on terror is over, than nyc can worry about its sanitation problems. In mean time our trash is hauled away to places like Ohio and West Virgina. A lot of people from Ohio live in NYC and the trash they consume here goes back home to ohio, sick irony.

You think anyone else is happy with the trash? Stay where you live, it'll be one less person whose trash the city has to deal with. But seriously NYC has much worse problems (public schooling, the entirety of the MTA, the NYPD) than it's horrible ways of dealing with trash. I'm sure it's on the list and they'll get to it later.

Now if you're referring to the abysmal littering situation, have fun getting cursed out when you try to stop someone from doing it...

Eh, I'm evaluating NYC compared to California's big three of SF, LA and SD. That's a tough standard to top. The magic and energy of Manhattan has a chance. But not if a simple subway ride is almost certain to mean dancing with rats.

Yeah I've taken my boss (who's from Jersey and takes the PATH) on the subway before and felt so embarrased. It was hot, crowded, dirty... IT was just really bad. I guess you get used to it, but NONE of us like it either, believe me.

Skyway...NYC has nothing to prove to you or anyone. It is the greatest city in the world...but was never billed "the perfect city in the world." You know why? Cuz there ain't one!

As soon as you make yourself perfect in everyone's eyes, then you can expect NYC to be perfect next, deal? Until then, we will just make fun of you so you should probably go away now before I put a rat in your size 18 sweatpants.

Nothing to like about skyway31; your comment is an embarrassment.

And your solution to the problem is...?
