Roughly half of those are exactly translatable to London, and probably a good number of other major cities. Several more require a brand name replacing to be translatable. Essentially it's "50 signs you grew up in a big city".

God the city used to be fuckn depressing. Too young to really remember, and by the time I began using it regularly in the mid-90s it had already gotten cleaned up. Say what you want about Giuliani but he cleaned up NYC real good.

Dude has anger issues.

Doing his best to reinforce the "NYers are thug assholes" stereotype.

A homophobic Harlem pastor is using a giant sign outside of his church to make yet another bizarre and shocking claim about President Obama, black men and homosexuality — and local residents are calling on him to take it down.

“Obama Has Released The Homo Demons On The Black Man,” states Pastor James David Manning’s bizarre sign, which was unveiled Sunday in front of the ATLAH World Missionary Church near the corner of W. 123rd St and Lenox Ave.

“Look Out Black Woman,” it continues. “A White Homo May Take Your Man.”

Cool panorama if you scroll down, wasted 20 minutes looking around and finding places on it.

That was a fantastic article. Read it this morning.

BTW I'm surprised no one posted that story about the lizard head in the salad.

I feel like that happens all the time. I saw one article about a live newt in someone's salad.

They're really taking the revitalization projects to the extreme, now.
