Opinion | Jerry Seinfeld: So You Think New York Is Dead – The New York Times

When I got my first apartment in Manhattan in the hot summer of 1976, there was no pooper-scooper law, and the streets were covered in dog crap.

I signed the rental agreement, walked outside, and my car had been towed. I still thought, This is the greatest place I ve ever been in my life.

Manhattan is an island off the coast of America. Are we part of the United States? Kind of. And this is one of the toughest times we ve had in quite a while.

But one thing I know for sure: The last thing we need in the thick of so many challenges is some putz on LinkedIn wailing and whimpering, Everyone s gone! I want 2019 back!

Oh, shut up. Imagine being in a real war with this guy by your side.
