More From Ari Mike and David:
People who didn't give you the time of day in NYC call you every time
they come into town so you can hook them up with cheap weed and a place
to stay.
The last time you watched the Sopranos, Big Pussy was the main
character.
The subway ride to work is so boring without the preachers and
singers.
You go out at night wearing head-to-toe black and notice that everyone
else seems comfortable clubbing in Khakis.
People look at you funny when you ask for an eleven dollar drink so
you change your order to a "Blue".
You won't walk through the neighborhood park at night b/c you are
afraid of getting mugged.
When you meet someone new and they ask you where you are from, you say
New York.
When you see someone you don't know in shul wearing New Ballance you
now know that they go to YU students and are visiting their parents for
the weekend.
You can't remember the last interesting thing you did on a night other
than Thursday or Saturday.
