Where Brooklyn at? Where Brooklyn at? The New York City borough is kind of a big deal. While it may get a bad rap for harboring trust fund hipsters and intolerable yuppies, it's also a cultural hub like no other. Brooklyn raised some of the best rappers, from Notorious B.I.G. and Lil Kim to Jay-Z, as well as entertainers like Barbra Streisand, Larry David, and Eddie Murphy. We'd be remiss not to include Bernie Sanders. While it may not win the award for most diverse borough, it certainly comes…

“If you can make it here, you can make it anywhere.” There's definitely some truth to this lyric about New York City . Frank Sinatra wasn't wrong. But…do you really want to? As a native New Yorker, I often find myself asking if it's worth it. The rent keeps going up and my apartment isn't getting any bigger or nicer. There are tons of people gentrifying every neighborhood that has any personality, pushing out its residents that have lived there for years. The commute is both frustrating (the MT…

What a dream job—caution: your mouth WILL water!

“Only in New York” is such an overused sentiment. Even as a New Yorker who often feels as though I've seen it all, something about it can feel a bit off, or self-congratulatory. But then I remember “What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas,” and am glad that my fellow city-dwellers simply love to share stories that are often an amalgam of

He just keeps trying and trying—he at least gets points for determination.

Every New Yorker and even tourists agree—she's doing the Lord's work.

But actually… How do these giant metal contraptions that weigh tons of pounds lightly float above the waves??

A giant sexy Shrek in stilettos and a black sleek leather jumpsuit is taking over the skies in places all over the world—a true jet-setting material swamp girl.

He learns to play the instruments, sings all the vocal ranges, and then adds some killer beats that turns these ancient pieces into top 40 instant hits.

Another day, another bad Twitter take. It's amazing how confident some people are when expressing incredibly dumb opinions. Today's winner of the bold stupidity prize is Paul Hünermund , an assistant professor in Copenhagen, Denmark. You never see old people in the streets of NYC. In Copenhagen you do. It's a real city, not just some romcom dream for 20-somethings. — Paul Hünermund (@PHuenermund) February 5, 2022 Hünermund managed to piss off a whole lot of Twitter users from the Big Apple with…

In possibly the most NYC moment of all time, an argument between two men on a subway platform turned violent as seen in a viral video shared by The Daily Show host Trevor Noah. Things quickly escalate and one of the men jabs and misses, hurling himself onto the subway track instead. The other man rushes over and pulls his contender up from the track to safety. The video ends with the two men appearing to reconcile whatever differences pushed them to violence. We love to see a happy ending.
