Bodegas are literally just gas stations without the gas, IDK why NYC thinks they're the only city in America where you can go to a convenience store at 2 a.m
Also the thing where they'll talk about how "diverse" the staff at Bodegas are and how that makes them special, as if every 7/11 outside the North East is exclusively staffed by white coal miners.
Brooklyn delenda est
Transplants are unquestionably worse than natives, it doesn't even come close. It's because transplants need to justify to themselves all the many things wrong with the city somehow and those who are native just kinda take the bullshit as is but love it because of the history your family has there (most natives have been there a few generations, or at least as far back as it was for them to immigrate to the country at all).
I'm a native going back 4 generations depending on how you look at things, and honestly, while no other city will ever be home in the same way, the quality of life there is just so much lower with the same salaries than it was when I was a kid so it's hard to justify it. Additionally, a lot of "fuck nyc" shit is seeped in racism and anti-semitism when it comes from Chuds, so I'll always still defend the place haha.
