memes

their pizza

Oh really? Everyone else likes their pizza with toppings. New Yorkers like it with just plain cheese, dripping in disgusting excess grease, and if you don't fold it in half while you eat it, they will GET ALL UP INTO YOUR FACE. Nobody else folds pizza. It's not normal behavior.

entertainment

You mean all those movies and shows that get made in HOLLYWOOD? Last time I checked, that sign isn't overlooking fucking Brooklyn. If it was, it would probably say "Brooklyn" instead of "Hollywood."

culture

Like what? What culture are you talking about? Sure, some of the great artists and musicians and writers have been from New York. But a lot of them have been from the Midwest and California and the South and the West, too. And even (gasp) from places outside the USA!!!!!!! Imagine that!

New York's own native culture is basically based on looking down their noses at everyone else on the planet, as if we're lower creatures. What else do they have? Bodegas? They actually think those goddamn things are a legit cultural element. What even is supposed to be the appeal of those fucking places? All the selection and quality of a fucking Dollar General, with all the prices of DEFINITELY NOT A DOLLAR GENERAL.

Hey, maybe that's the legendary cultural output you're talking about. New Yorkers invented the cultural meme of ridiculously, unsustainably, civilization-threateningly inflated prices on basic consumer goods and necessities.
