HEY! New Yorkers! What's with the rolling luggage you drag behind you through department stores? |
|
I can't tell you how many times some dumb ass crashed into me or knocked over a display with one of those things while I was shopping in Manhattan last weekend. Ever hear of shopping bags?

8. I went to Ohio once, by accident, spent about ten minutes in the state. |
|
Never again, my friend, never again.

16. I once spent a week at the Red Roof Inn in Secaucus, NJ. |
|
Secaucus is why NJ has a bad rep.

20. Jersey City is pretty nice now. It's getting really gentrified towards the waterfront. |
|
They're turning it into the next Hoboken.
Anyway, I spent the first 10 years of my life in Union City (next to Jersey City). I'd move back there in a heartbeat. It's so convenient to NYC.

17. I don't get it either. |
|
I mean, I backpacked around Ireland staying in hostels. I didn't even really carry my backpack, except when I had to. I just locked my stuff up and kept the important stuff with me.
There is no excuse for wandering around with luggage in a store, unless you are buying the luggage.
