I too visited recently and it was atleast 7,8 years before that.

Younger me found the larger than life, constant hustle, loud new yorker fascinating and exciting, but as ive gotten older i can no longer stand the narcissism and rude attitude that i once used to dig.

I felt like everybody tried to pick a fight and one of the first things that occured when i got into the city was a loudmouth screaming over the counter towards the dunkin donuts worker who looked terrified.

These things happens in Europe too of course but in Italy, France etc i never get the feeling that it will turn out into a brawl. Native New Yorkers never back down from a fight thats for sure.

Perhaps this attitude will be less hostile now with the new weed laws? 😄
