Some guy will post a picture of a pretty standard looking pepperoni pizza and say: "Imagine not living in new york." And then there's the whole bodega discourse, which is also funny. "For you non-new yorkers, let me explain: a bodega is not a corner store. It's a place where you can buy gatorade, toilet paper, AND eggs." Thank you sir for explaining that to a slack-jawed yokel such as myself.
I think just because of the population of the city and how much its media circles dominate. It was a while before I realized how much of the American media I consume as a foreigner is more specifically New York media about America.
I could understand being frustrated at social media spaces flooding with the same shit about the same city you don't live in, over and over.
its a downward spiral, like a flushing toilet, because it tends to flood social media because of the people getting angry.
