This is interesting. NYC is probably the only city in the world I’ve felt like a 100% bored alien in, and not even remotely at home. If there’s an opposite of home, NYC is it for me. Visits over the years were mildly fun but I’ve never felt the slightest desire to live there.

i didnt realize you felt that way, but i guess it makes sense. seems to be much more polarizing than other US cities

I think New Yorkers *want* it to be way more polarizing than it is. Theyre really into themselves and assume all love it or hate-envy it. But it’s a basic meh for me. Same as pro football or nascar. A complex thing with a devout fandom that leaves me meh.

For eg... I do enjoy a slice of NY pizza when I’m there but... it’s just one among many styles for me and I don’t get the religious sentiments.

Oh wow, I just love it, every place an extension of my living room. What is starting to annoy me are, by contrast, body 4 bedroom colonials.
