I tell people that I hate Manhattan with a passion (old schooler). Most times the response is you should hang out in Brooklyn. I respond with it's not worth the effort to get there on Subway. Especially at night if I have been drinking. I've done Williamsburg twice and I wound up having to get off the train to use the bathroom.
Take a cab people say. My response is WHY ? I don't want to add $35 to my already inflated bill of going out in NYC.
Did I miss something ? Are amazing things going on in Brooklyn that I don't know about and if I am over 35 should I care ?
well I am 27 and I personally don't care. I don't really get drunk or go out much. That being said, I do love to go for dinner and Williamsburg has some nice restaurants. How far out in Williamsburg did you go that you couldn't hold it?
I laugh at people who are constantly making fun of the borough they hate compare to the borough they love. Brooklyn n Manhattan each have the same things just in different places. My most memorable story of idiocy was at a brooklyn warehouse party where someone was having a conversation next to me saying "this is why i love brooklyn, you never hear this music in the city clubs" I so badly wanted to turn to them and say something.
The DJ that was playing is a resident at a manhattan club that im associated with for many yrs. I cant stand people who only partake in things cause its either cool at the moment thing or brand new to them and make stupid comments without know much about what they are talking about.
The Brooklyn cool thing lasts until your around 27. You age out and move on, either to another neighborhood in Brooklyn or somewhere else. Paying a fortune in rent to share an apartment in a crappy tenement building in Williamsburg does get old after awhile.
