new york city related discussion itt

if this were a well oiled machine they would be selling cheetos instead

they must be like the absolute cheapest thing you can get in bulk

guys which is the better airport to fly into: laguardia or jfk? convenience-wise

maybe the syndicate bought a single box of those at the start of the scheme and they've just been trying to get rid of them for years

I dunno why you would be grudging these kids just because they're organized. maybe because this is AMERICA where we SHOULDN'T GIVE HANDOUTS because everybody must WORK for their LIVELIHOOD

staying in brooklyn

jfk

awes, thanks

I mean CONGRATULATIONS for seeing the BIG PICTURE and having CLEAR EYES about NOT GETTING SWINDLED

where in brooklyn -- lga might be better if you're in wburg or greenpoint

ya in a certain sense buying m&ms from duane reade is prob going to even worse people in the end

wburg

are you gonna take a taxi or the train?

if we stopped giving money to panhandlers they would all just go and get jobs, right

because there are plenty of those to go around

saw a dvd seller a while ago do his spiel in english, then in spanish, then paused and did it in french -- everyone was like whooooa

cab from lga to wburg would be like $20 maybe?

dunno! might be getting picked up?

my rule is never, ever fly into laguardia if you can help it

that shit shuts down like 5 times a week

if you're getting picked up or taking a cab to wburg then yeah lga

if you're taking public transit jfk

i can get miles if i go to LGA

btw i go to new york

when

new year's

buddy of mine is buying half my ticket, so it's still OK even this last minute

oh wow I'll probably be in ny at that time too

but can understand two ships passing etc etc

why are you taking a ship

man if you come here there's gonna be a snowstorm huh

so basically i have this choice:

JFK -- $50 cheaper, Sun Country, no miles
LGA -- Delta, miles

take the miles, always take the miles

why are you taking a ship

^^^

nye party at max's btw

I flew into laguardia once it wasn't that bad

lga isn't that bad imo but I also I could like walk there

I flew into JFK once too I don't remember that tho

I also flew into the twin towers and then bush started the war on terror and invaded iraq

sorry ya'll

o great one time dayo, leguardia experts here, iatees lived in ny for what 6 months, thx 4 the advice noobs

*stands on the lefthand side of the escalator*

ya but the 6 months were very close to lga I got time to study it

newark is the most underrated of all airports

max is from nj btw everyone

lol I've flown into newark probably the most times

I like LGA just cuz it's a shorter cabride from my hovel.

"take the miles, always take the miles" - from max's remake of The Godfather

if you're getting picked up or taking a cab to wburg then yeah lga

if you're taking public transit jfk

I read this as "If you're taking public transit jfc"

that too

newark is the most underrated of all airports

definitely closer if you live or are staying in manhattan

yeah but you have to deal w/ the shame factor of having landed in jersey

But yeah, laguardia is significantly closer geographically to williamsburg, although the airtrain to A to L is not terrible. Cab ride from LaGuardia is probably not expensive though -- maybe like $15 and you'll be there in 15 minutes, I'd guess? I think there are also bus lines but I never tried that.

Also LaGuardia is pretty small and in my experience the few times I've been there that's meant getting in and out fast. Guess it depends when you fly.
