Trash and…More Trash

NYC is already pretty famous for its trash, but in warm weather it’s a whole other story. You can trip over a chicken bone, accidentally step in a pile of dog crap, have to mosey around a dirty diaper and watch your toes to make sure they don’t wind up in a pool of dirty…liquid (can’t say what that liquid could be…ewww). People get mad comfortable when it gets warm, and instead of waiting to find a garbage can, they just drop their garbage like it’s hot.

    I agree 100%. I absolutely HATE leggings…..it seems that I see them all year around, but it’s worse come spring/ summertime.

    In the South its cruising. I can barely make it home sometimes without running into the large crowd of people who decide to jump in their car/mom’s car and block around the same neighborhoods.

    I just can’t..

    That foot had a serious bunion didn’t it?  It looked like a seal flipper with nail polish.  How do you get a foot like that inside a shoe?  It seems like the shoes would have to have 45 degree angles. 

    Those people who are throwing diapers on the sidewalk, aren’t looking for trash receptacles anyway.  They just dispose of them anywhere they happen to be.  And these are somebody’s mothers or fathers!  Yikes! Nasty.

    The ones playing loud music all night, well, it’s not like THEY have anywhere to be the next day. What’s the problem?

    • Nitty

      Wao.
      Time lost on this huh?
      Read a book

      • FromUR2UB

        WTH is ‘wao’?  Is that ‘wow’?  It’s only three letters and one syllable….

        And dispose of your diapers properly!

    I love the elderly full figured ladies who wear the classic summer mumu, with rollers in their hair, their Rotweiller running behind, bat in tow, that will run you off, and tell you to take that foolishness somewhere else. ROTFL.  There is one no matter where you live, doesn’t whether if you are black, white  or green with yellow polka dots.

    There is also the crew of elderly ladies and men that sit out or on the phone with one another laughing at the hot messes rolling around and going, MMM   :/

    LOL. As a fellow NYer I can relate. I’d also like to add cops who stop any man of color driving a nice car. They really up the ante in the summer. And people throwing a BBQ on the sidewalk complete with a DJ so you have to walk in the street to get by. And they don’t even live on the bock.

  • HUGH KEN SOCKETT

    How could they not add them illegally opened fire hydrants with a crowd of Bay-bay’s kids running around them?

    • Nitty

      Ha ha haaa..
      i can’t

      • FromUR2UB

        Obviously.  You haven’t yet.

  • Dramaking

    They forgot to add fighting!  but dang!!!  why you gotta put nyc on blast?  theres crazy kids and smelly garbage in other cities too!

    • Imahrtbrkbeat

      I know, especially in Miami and in Atlanta…but I feel like something extra is in the water in NYC. I’ve spent summers there as far back as I can remember, and I continue to until this day…I just feel like it’s getting worse! Maybe it’s just too many children in general…

    • ZibyFortunine

      NYC gets humid in the summer, and I think that we aren’t as prepared for it as places in the south where it’s hot for more of the year. There’s not a lot of central air. Still though, if you wanna feel better about being in NYC, look at London. Air conditioning is not common and ventilation in general is not good. They seem to explain it away that it’s not hot that much, but it still gets up there and I like it cool. :) Still a great city but they need to get the air moving up in there.

    Sun Is Shinin De weder IS Sweet Make U wana Move ya Dancin Feet…BobM. By comparison Toronto is tame/conservative. A clean City. Known for its clean City Streets!!!

  • Chanda

    Tourists coming to Ocean City that can’t drive for sh!t, causing car accidents and holding up the traffic. Stop trying to drive so dang fast! Making people late for work due to your foolishness!

    The loiterers are a mess! You’d think they’d at least get summer jobs at Micky Ds or a hotel job but some are old as dirt or on “disability”. Some just don’t wanna do anything but hang outside from 8am to midnight and holla at everything that walks by.
