life:
So it’s your first trip to the Big Apple, but you’re a little antsy because of the reputation Gothamites have for being, well, unforgiving, and would like to learn how to blend in. Have no fear. Peruse these, some of the most common mistakes tourists make in New York City, and you’ll never again stick out like a hot buttered corn cob in the middle of an Iowa December. (By the way, never say that in New York.)
Mine would be: act nonplussed when you see a big rat in the subway. In my experience there is nothing that New Yorkers love more than claiming they have the biggest rats in the country.
“You think that rat is big? Most of them are at least twice that size”.
