I miss NYC.
I had one hell of a time in NYC in April 2008.

Lived it up...had great fun.

REALLY good fun.

GREAT company, fantastic times.

Once in a lifetime.

I'm missing it. :-(

2. Nothing like it....
Edited on Mon Jan-19-09 01:41 AM by philboy
We had a room, with a view that was indescribable.

Here's the thing...we got a room that was OK, big, but with a shitty view. Well, the toilet broke.

I called down to the front desk.

I told them that I wasn't paying $300 a night for a room with a broken toilet.

They moved us to a top floor suite, next to the hotel owner's suite.

OMG!

I can't even explain the view...I'm not easily impressed....but holy shit.

What a time.

Balcony, beer, wine, weed, and a corner store across the street.

:hug:

7. Olive Branch.
Since you have followed me around, thread by thread, I think it's only fair I comment and prove I am the bigger man. (ahem, since you are so worried about my penile endowment)

I love NYC. It's the city that is full of boundless opportunity. I have always loved the city. And I can't wait to go back there. You should visit me when I do, so you can get a personal lecture about why you are not my type :hi:

21. You think it's a game.
It's not. And if something happens to me, as a result of him reading this, it's on your hands. But you would probably get some joy out of seeing me hurt. And that's really fucked up :(

25. Yeah, domestic violence is illegal
Edited on Mon Jan-19-09 03:36 AM by WildEyedLiberal
If you're being serious and this isn't just some stupid idiot joke because you like to post outrageous shit anonymously on the internet, and your boyfriend is really such a violent lunatic that he'd harm you because of something someone posted on the internet - or, fuck, because of ANYTHING - then you need to GTFO NOW. If you're telling the truth and your "man" is really that psychotic, then his actions are on his "hands" - no one else's. But why the fuck tempt fate? If some random fucking obviously facetious shit on DU would send him into such a rage that he'd beat you, then something else is bound to set him off. He's a violent abusive sociopath and you need to GET. AWAY. NOW.

PS, if this is a joke and you're really a 14 year old who thinks it's hilarious to post provocative shit on the internet - abuse isn't funny.

26. First of all
I need to stop making him mad and being shady/sketchy and he wouldn't kick my ass.

He has NEVER hit me without DUE CAUSE.

Get out of MY life.

31. Listen to me you fucking tool
You get your jollies out of posting this shit on the internet - whatever. I don't give a fuck. But there are plenty of people who ARE legitimate victims of domestic violence who don't need to see this disgusting attempt at trolling. You are so fucking far out of line it isn't funny.

On the remote, distant, off-chance that you are for real - get help right the fuck now. It's called Stockholm Syndrome. Google it. And if you don't want people in "YOUR" life then stop fucking sharing it on the internet for everyone to read.

34. I know... I'm posting this more for the people who might be hurt by this shit
He gets his rocks off trolling on the internet. Sad, yes. Pathetic, yes. But whatever floats your boat. I'm more concerned about DUers and lurkers who have been victims of domestic violence, and who don't need to read this disgusting attempt at humor.

Meh, it's too late for this BS anyway, I need to hit the hay. Peace out...

11. My elder daughter ended up there (for now)
She was in school in L.A., but graduated from another college in NYC and got a miserable tiny apartment on E. 30th street in Manhattan, a job with low pay with a company that is in financial peril, and she wouldn't want to live anywhere else in the world.

My grandparents used to live there, and I can understand completely.

NYC is not for everyone, but there is no other place like it.

Best wishes to your daughter!

20. She has lived in Düsseldorf and L.A.
So far, she likes NYC best. If that changes, she'll leave.

Thanks for the positive thought!

14. Next time you go,
go down to Dojo and grab a soyburger dinner for me. The one with the tahini dressing. Overnight it to Seattle.

You'll take a check?

(I miss living out east...can you tell?)

24. Used to be on St. Mark's near the Sockman, but that one closed.
There's still one on W 14th at Mercer.

It's weird and cheap, but the soyburger dinner is the stuff of legend.
