So I been in Queens, NY for a month now...[Random Observations]

[Sensei]

I tried to tell a female from philly that y'all we're country too (i'm in the dirty, btw) ... and she got mad as fukk.
Ol' never been outside of Philly and the south a$$ niccas...


got love for her tho.



How can you shyt on Chicago nicca?

Philly nikkas do not talk country, NY nikkas say that because they don't sound like them but they definitely have an East Coast accent.The accent is different from NY but its east coastish ,just like Boston.

I hate when people say this

Not true at all imo

I didn't get the idea going out there either.

Yo. My Pops used to go to parties out there back in the day. He said they used to call it Crimedanch

thats where rakim from i think

 

[Knicksman20]

thats where rakim from i think

You're right. My cousin is good friends with his nephew who's from a town called North Babylon which neighbors Wyandanch

 

[Frida Giezman]

naw, Im guessing they are like Crown Fried Chicken, we got those in Philly.

I still get confused when Im at a Deli, and the guys asks if I want it on a hero or a roll...

a hero is the long joint like a footlong at subway

a roll is the round bread so it's a smaller sandwich than a hero

 

[Frida Giezman]

and astoria BEEN done in terms of affordability

but the rents are sky high in any queens neighborhood with proximity to manhattan

pretty sure it's the same for brooklyn if not worse

 

[SubLyminalz]

from my visiting experience in NYC queens is the best borough if you want to raise a family.

queens has some beautiful cribs


even the hood areas has some nice real estate.

Yeah cause for the most part, cats from Elmont/VS moved from Brooklyn and Queens. So on the weekends, we're dipping back into the city to link up with the old crew. I know they're trying to build it u now but you're not gonna see that vibrant night life in Elmont. It'll never be a mixy spot. It's truly a mid point for people that want an LI education for their kids while still being able to work a reasonable distance from Manhattan.

This the truth. Damn near everyone I went to high school with in Elmont was from BK or Queens, including me.

 

[Frida Giezman]

yo tell this split you guys are talking about how is each boro different from each other, like personify this shyt for a nikka so i can understand

definitely not as significant as people try to make it seem

 

[Frida Giezman]

Nah queens is not soft. Idk where people got that idea from..

theres not as much poverty in queens as there is in brooklyn harlem and bronx

so crime is not as rampant

this dude said the E train is a journey. if you want to go on a journey, take the R train. unlike the E at least runs express in queens and locally in manhattan, the R stops at EVERY single stop from queens, manhattan, and brooklyn. even the fukking train cars are on some special ed, retard shyt. the q and the n will be all speeding into the station. the R train be all sounding like it's out of breath, on some little engine that could shyt. i've been DREADING taking the r train as a kid. every time my father used to get us off the d, q or b at dekalb ave to transfer to the R as kids, we would get depressed and happy as hell when we got off our stop.

thats another difference between queens and other boros

you dont see a whole lot of that unless its somewhere that has a bar/lounge scene

most of queens is residential and quiet relatively speaking

I havent been in NYC since 07 but used to be there regularly for vaca. If I recall correctly, Flushing was predominately Jews and Afghans.
I would be in Queens or the very few times shopping in Manhattan.

Serious question, is there a good portion of white people in BK, Bronx and Queens? An amount where they aren't considered minorities. Never went so couldn't say.

Where the PAWGs at?
