Depending on the station, there might be space below the platforms too. It will be disgusting and rat infested, but MUCH better than getting hit by a train

There are actually a lot of 24 hour McDonald's in Middle America.

I would recommend only using cash for street food purchases. It's much harder for them to rip you off like that.

I mean, even in Midtown Manhattan (packed with tourists) the prices are usually not that high. A chicken and rice plate goes for about 10 dollars there, and hot dogs much less.

I work near JFK and there isn't shit to do in that area. You're better off hanging out in the lounge.

I've had a paper straw sitting in a glass of coke for an hour and it was still intact + functional

I don't get why (non disabled) people whine about paper straws. They're totally fine and there's too much plastic on this planet in the first place

Flatbush is considered Southern Brooklyn? I've always thought of it as being the Heart of Brooklyn more or less
