I wanted to say something to the effect of "me when I hate on a place with good bagels" or something like that, because I only know like two or three things consistently about new york, but it does pass the smell test for me over most other US cities because it has good urbanism. Maybe not the smell test in terms of like, the city's ability to consistently manage it's own utilities, but that's a bonus I think, if it ends up cutting down on housing prices.

At the same time, after looking it up, I feel completely scammed. Temperature high is 95, low is like fucking 27, in new york. Where I live, temperature high is 115 and temperature low is -10. What the hell? Why the fuck do I live in this shithole? Looking at the temperature averages it's more even between the two, but then if you look at temperature graphs or variations, seems like new york has really very consistent weather and where I live has not very consistent weather.

I dunno, weather is dumb. We should all live in big judge dredd style superblocks or something, with air conditioning, that'd probably be better.
