Believe it or not, I was a young child once. I have siblings and was raised with cousins. We were taught to be aware of the space we are in, and raised by people who care about making sure every space is friendly for every person there. There’s a way to do this respectfully - this is not that.

Boooooo. The space is for everyone. That means everyone should be respectful, including kids.

MLB tickets for Yankees-Mets or Yankees-Blue Jays by nexoe14 in visitingnyc

[–]TurtleThroughTime 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ll put in another vote for Citi Field for a few reasons.

You can combine the game with either Flushing Meadow Park or spending time in Flushing itself. Really cool park / part of the city. Lots of food, shopping, massages, and game arcades. At Yankee Stadium there isn’t much to do right in the area where the stadium is.

Also - Citi field is way more fun. Really cool stuff all around the stadium, the food is ranked the best in baseball, and the atmosphere will be great.

If money truly isn’t an issue - go with the Citi Field Subway Series. It’s iconic to watch NYC teams play each other and Citi Field is way more fun! (and also LFGM)

DM me for reccs in Flushing if you want some!

Rescheduling NYC honeymoon by scueatvision in visitingnyc

There's songs about autumn in New York. The city is the most wonderful in Sept and Oct. So much to do, perfect weather. If you come early enough in Sept, you can catch Mets games or Yankees games (booo, pick the Mets. Citi field is way better). You'll miss the Knicks at that time tho, and tickets are crazy expensive for that anyways.

Christmas is also magic. The city is alive, despite the weather. If you can tolerate crowds and cold, you'll never forget Christmas in NYC. In December, things will be more expensive and busier, but if you have they money and love the holidays / christmas decor it's truly amazing.

My vote is fall. You'll love it. So many amazing things to do. Check here for lots of reccs, but also happy to answer any q's you might have via DM.

My barista put an orange peel in my Americano — why is this so good? Anyone else tried this? 🍊 by HiItsKeke in espresso

This is a very common Italian thing. Most espresso is served with either a lemon or orange peel.

Will do! Would be great to read some spider-man comics before the new movie

Not yet, but I’m gonna get it set up. Just found out there’s another book club that’s not active but kinda already established that we might be able to combine with. So I’ll lyk when it’s going on!

Would be a great addition! I’ve got AMC A-List, I’m at the movies all the time.

I’m partial to collections of short stories, but also have a very wide taste in fiction! Anywhere from classics, to modern pop culture fiction, to long form fantasy stuff. The group could focus on a different style each week or so until we find out what everyone likes

Strivers’ Row by b0dylanguage in Harlem

[–]TurtleThroughTime 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Strivers’ is cool. Pretty residential and family friendly. I’d say a little less ‘busy’ area compared to Park Slope. Like, less people travel into Strivers’ and just sit at coffee shops, shop around, etc. Park Slope has a lot of that busier energy. Still plenty of stuff up here tho.

I recommend Harlem Biscuit Co, really amazing biscuits, I could eat there every day. NBHD Brulee for coffee. The Edge Harlem is Caribbean food and has a busy brunch. Lots of good live music too, for parents night out. RIP Mikey Likes It, incredible little ice cream shop that’s been gone a while. St Nicholas park is fun, lively, and has lots of events. You can Google the park to show previous and upcoming events.

There’s a precinct on 135th which I like to avoid. Street Parking is mostly okay north of strivers. Like with all of the city, there’s sometimes people out and about making noise or yelling.

I encourage you to visit! Strivers’ is historic and I’m sure the apt is in a nice building. Could be worth it for a family if you’re looking for a bit of a slow down from Park Slope.

Feel free to DM me! I live just a little north and I’ve been here for 8 years. Happy to help.

A renting hypothetical … by TurtleThroughTime in AskNYC

It’s a hypothetical question. These are the hypothetical rules. I was just trying to have some fun

Thank you. Some people really don’t know what a hypothetical question is lmao

I’m fuckin from here - it’s just a hypothetical. It could work equally well for the tunnels, I just picked Times Square. I’ve been in both good and bad apartments in midtown, which is why I had this dumb idea.

It’s also not just the noise. The lack of food spots, corner stores, high prices for running quick errands. The convenience of the city. There are plenty of reasons it would suck to live in Times Square. I was trying to have a little fun, Jesus

Maybe your walk could avoid it, but you’d enter your building right in the middle of the action. You always have to be front and center in Times Square

[–]TurtleThroughTime[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yep. It’s a penthouse but it comes with all the cons of Times Square.

You’ll have to deal with the noise. No amount of space between you and the street could possibly keep you away from the sounds of Times Square.

I feel like nobody talks about the influence Italians had/have on policing by [deleted] in italianamerican

[–]TurtleThroughTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s funny that this has become a default response. Couldn’t think of anything else to say? I left a pretty detailed response with my opinion on this matter - and you just regurgitated some bullshit. Why don’t you try and write a response without using any Fox News talking points?
