Why did you leave? NYC is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there. Granted, I've only been to Manhattan, and Times Square, so I don't know what the rest of the city is like.

I didn’t leave by choice. It was a confluence of personal events that led to me losing my apt, and the only help I could get was family who demanded I move to Florida to get it— then abandoned me as soon as I got here, the swines.

Also, you didn’t really see NYC. You saw the shit part that New Yorkers avoid like the plague.

Manhattan is considered the shit part? I thought that was the nicest part of NYC.

[–] gregorum@lemm.ee 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

That is definitely not what I said

After I told you that I only saw Manhattan and Times Square. So, what did you mean if not "Manhattan and Times Square are the shit parts of town"?

Intentionally pretending not to understand something that’s clearly stated and smugly acting like you didn’t do anything wrong isn’t clever, it’s trolling.

Go ruin some else’s day.

Blocked.

Wow, you brought a whole lot of perceived conflict to a pretty standard conversation. Good luck.
