Doesn't urging New Yorkers to do something generally make them not do it harder out of spite?
I think this encapsulates NYC to perfection
Having lived on both coasts, I think the “kind but not nice” thing is something people who are actually neither say to feel better about themselves.
Am... am I from New York? That's exactly what I would do in that situation.
Kindness is its own communication.
New Yorkers have no tolerance for entitled people who screw over others out of arrogance or for personal gain. However when shit hits the fan, we band together in an instant.
Watch a video of any accident or tragedy in NYC. You’ll see how quick New Yorkers are to help someone in distress.
You're thinking of Philadelphia. You just have to tell New Yorkers they're tough and badass, but also smart and sophisticated, and super unique for doing .
I thought that the issue with Philly is that it didn't matter whether you asked them or used reverse psychology because they won't listen and just give you the finger for opening your fuckin mouth.
What you have to understand about Philly is that they already hate themselves more than anyone else.
