You boosted about never going to the statue of liberty and being born and raised in NY? How is that taking advantage of the city every chance you get. Yes tourist attend it but so do ny-ers. It's a part of history and a value learning experience.
No one has to fit themselves into your criteria for either what being a New Yorker is or how they choose to take advantage of what this city has to offer.

Happy Thanksgiving.
Never said you did but you referred to people being smart by not doing certain things so indirectly you called people not smart for not doing things you don't want to do. Its a two way street daring, if you wanta dish out judgement then don't be shocked when you get opinions back.

You become a NYer naturally when you start avoiding crowds or going out to popular tourist events or areas. I know many NYers born and bred here that never been to statue of liberty or Empire State.
The only time I been to Macys parade was after a night of partying we went outside to find the parade.

I dreaded when friends and relatives visit and want ME to be responsible for fiving them a "New York Experience." I just don't do it anymore.
I wouldn't wait in line for the Second Coming.
Crowds? My limit is the change from the Q to the #1 train. I always get the back of the Q so I don't have to "swim" upstream through the masses on the platform.
Times Square Theater...gets to be less and less desirable because of the crowds.
Statue of Liberty My aunt did that one in for me as a child. She said, it's fine if you want to walk up a million steps with your face in a stranger's ass. I wave as I pass her, SIL, on the Staten Island Ferry once a year.
