I never ever just talk about new york out of nowhere. It was because a non brought the city up or i was simply defending it. All those posters u named-the new yorkers including myself, never go about making a thread about new york city. When was the last thread about new york from any of them? or me?
Try using the search function and you'll find that's simply not true.

Of course. But to the point where other regions of the country are constantly bashed, stereotyped and never given credit or respect is what I think polo was referring to. It happens all the time, but it seems to be most prevalent among those from the upper East Coast.

"New York, New York, The Bronx vacaserio"

"And you already know the X is where the team be at"

"We from the Bronx NY **** happens"

"I hit Wash Heights with the money in the bag"

"Mess around, come uptown and get felt"

"Ima get my Brooklyn suckas to run in ya house"


Sorry these rap lines where in my head while reading this thread.

And yes....I'm from NYC

I can teach you how to use the search function if you'd like. It really does work.

I guess if you insist, I'll have to help you.

Naturally, there's this topic. Using "NYC" as the keyword for topic title in the search engine yields, on just the first page of results, "Where would you rather live NYC or L.A." by westchester (in westchester), "NYC vs State College, PA" by Trailrunner79 who lives in Astoria, Queens, NYC, "Which City is safer LA or NYC" by KRS88 who lists his location as University Heights in the Bronx, There's "NYC vs Tokyo" and "NYC vs London" by NYC1212 who lives in Manhattan, "Favorite NYC Borough" by Newarkbomb who lives in the NYC metro, and "NYC vs LA vs Chicago: who has the worst driver" by dementor who supposedly hails from White Plains.

Putting in New York, you get (also just the first page), "New York metro vs Miami Metro vs LA metro" by PalmBch who lives in NJ/NYC/FL, "New York City vs Los Angeles" by NorthNJ who lives in Northern New Jersey, "Miami vs New York" by 130st who lives in NYC, "New York City vs Los Angeles by NJ-201 who lives in NJ, and "New York City vs Boston", "New York vs Honolulu", and "New York Metropolitan versus Miami Metropolitan" by Apple_91 who lives in NYC.

So, how does that qualify as "almost exclusively brought up by non-new yorkers"? Honestly, if you need help with the search function, I can show you the ropes.

There are more people from NYC and its surrounding area than almost any other single place on this forum. It's also a very attractive place given that it's the US's largest city. It doesn't really take that much explaining.

Your whole second paragraph consist of threads by people NOT FROM NEW YORK ,like i said. lol So yes my statement still stands
