@blood, people who have no idea what Pre-Check is, but are sure they paid for it.

The reason tax isn't listed on store tags is because the US has different sales taxes, really that simple. For a one-location shop, fine, they could easily post prices including taxes, but in some parts of the US, the tax paid on a particular item could vary by CITY. I'll give Ohio… Read More

My neighbor (several doors up, but we've been friendly for years since we both have dogs) asked me what I did for a living a few weeks ago. A package meant for me was delivered to him, so when he brought it to my door, I dragged him inside to show him my kitchen/dining renovation… Read More

That's a NY fridge, and judging by the size of it, a NYC fridge. Lots of people store things like that in their fridge so the critters don't get to them. I live in DC and put lots of stuff in my fridge in the late fall and early spring, and any time the temperature drops suddenly… Read More

There's nothing wrong with the tram, and I actually have a framed photo I took from Victoria Peak on my office wall, but what the poster was getting at is that the bus is cheaper and has better views, while delivering you to the same point. I agree with them that there's too much… Read More

I think you're conflating staying in the Times Square area and treating Times Square as an attraction on its own. I often stay in that area (usually TS South) when I visit because I'm arriving at Penn Station and, you are absolutely right, being able to walk 4 or 5 blocks to my hotel… Read More
