Alone in NYC

Brodo Faggins

My girlfriend is currently in NYC, and I'm here in California. We had a fight, and it suddenly looks like I'm single.

Last week,s he found a sublet for me to stay in during spring break (next week), and the non-refundable plane ticket was bought months ago. I put the deposit down for the place a few weeks back. We were planning on staying together in that studio apartment, but now, it looks like I'll be going at it alone. I don't know anyone in that city, and I'll basically be alone.

The ticket is electronic and under my name, so I can't just give it away, and none of our mutual friends want to stay in NYC for the entirety of spring break (which is how long we have the apartment).

Any fun and interesting things to do by myself in that city? AFAIK, the place is in Manhattan.

You should steal your ex-girlfriend's wallet while you are there.

Oh also, I'm 21, so age restrictions aren't an issue.

Oh well then.

This changes everything.

Whore yourself out on the street.

Brodo Faggins

Man I don't want to wander up and down the entirety of the city by myself.

Edit: on the one in a million chance I'll get the cash cab.

Me too

It's a game show

Brodo Faggins

I think I'll make a documentary on this.

On how being alone in that city will be hilariously awful

and how I got to that stage.

Kind of like A Complete History of my Sexual Failures but more boring

awesome

For equipment, the Cash Cab has ten cameras: one on the host, three on the passengers, one pointing forward from the back window of the cab, and three (front, left, and right) in the advertising shell on the roof of the cab. The rear of the cab behind the seats contains ten recording decks with a tower containing a countdown timer.

Near the end of the game player's destination Ben Bailey appears to present the cash won. In reality, this cash is a prop and used for on-air purposes only. The winnings must be taxed and are sent via check.

OH MY GOD

Brodo Faggins

Oh awesome. I'm totally not going to disappoint the audience by not doing the video challenge.

And if I win, I'm going to rent a skywriting service.

I'll put "FUCK YOU BITCH" in cloud letters across the sky.

Man I had a hella great time when I visited New York... jesus I guess it was two years ago this summer, feels like it was only last summer.

Then again I had a couple people from the boards show me a really nice night on the town.

PS: Go hang out with Graves that kid is baller and lives in NYC if memory serves.

In my mind every female radio announcer that isn't on like... NPR or something boring looks like Joan Jet circa 1990. Every male announcer looks like the Wolf Man from American Graffiti.

yes, yes, that is the despair that feeds me

Depends on your taste. If you're around at the right time, you can catch a Dave Letterman taping (they sometimes fill in the audience with people walking along the sidewalks in front of the theater), head over to the TKTS booth on certain days to get discounted tickets to many different shows if you're into that. There's also awesome comedy clubs, Knicks games if you're up for a laugh, being it's spring break there'll probably be some street performers out if the weather's alright. Toys 'R' Us is worth at least a visit. Museum of Natural History's pretty awesome and they offer a bunch of different cool shit to do. Several other museums you could visit, obviously. Go find a hooker one night and spend some time doing what you'd probably planned on.

Any number of things can be done in the city if you've got money.

If you don't have money, there's some shit to do too. Google it I guess.

Fuck Times Square. I'm walking past it during my visit to New York and I see a whole family in "I <3 NY" shirts walk into a Goddamn 'Sbarro pizza joint.

I was like what the fuck is wrong with you people. Why are you going into a chain pizza joint when you're in New Fucking York.
