New Yorkers Aren't "Friendly" Enough, Say Sensitive Readers Of Irrelevant Magazine: Gothamist
“‘New York ultimately claimed the title of No. 1 rudest city,’ reports Travel & Leisure, once again misrepresenting their own stupid survey, just like last year and the year before that. According to their readers, New York City residents are the least friendly in America (last year these “readers” said LA locals were the most unfriendly). This time around, LA is the fourth least-friendly city, while Miami ranks second and D.C. third and blah blah blah click on the ads! Far be it from us to question Travel & Leisure’s scientific rigor, but again: this meaningless survey is just a cheap way to get people to click through on a slideshow and remember—if only for a brief, exasperating moment—that Travel & Leisure is still a thing that exists. Enter NOW for a chance to win a DREAM VACATION to somewhere FRIENDLY! Like, say, New York City, tourists’ favorite city in America.”
