Asking the Plastered guy at the bar who is clearly not into you for advice on all of life’s problems
He’s still sticking around and hasn’t offered to financially compensate you for all the time you’ve spent kindly letting him down and telling him bestie does have a bf. He still needs some hope or perhaps a way to feel like he did something so why not get some heavy hitters out of the way.
Hey George, should I freeze my eggs? Hey John, should I get bangs? Steven, how can I fix my spending problem? Matt, what are the keys to a successful retirement plan?

getting plastered at bars and giving older men advice on how to function. this sounds like its a joke but im being serious. its a little wholesome, a little funny, and you both walk away knowing something maybe you wish you didn't.

come up with a ridiculous argument with your friend.
the topic: absurd.
the intensity of the argument: HIGH
then go up to a stranger and ask them to weigh in. no internet allowed. best if its purely subjective. best if you rope in a whole group.

- The grocery store franchise closest to you is possibly overcharging, so sometimes groceries become a sort of Halloween style I buy fruit from here, pantry things from here, etc etc
- Lots of free things to do with a library card!! so many museums have discounted / free admission, the Met for example allows you to do a suggested donation when showing a library card
- Obvious but tap water is 🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻 no need to buy fancy water when going out to eat (and on this note I always carry around a reusable water bottle and one of those little electric fans bc the temperature outside never matches the subway)
- There is no greater joy than getting a blanket and a book and people watching on Sheep Meadow/the Mall/ at any park
- Explore the other boroughs!!
- It’s so cliche but you can stumble upon so many fun restaurants, events, bars, shops, concerts, museums, etc etc by just strolling around
- In tandem with the above I sometimes check the Time Out NY website, the New York Times daily newsletter, New York Magazine. The New Yorker, etc for inspiration and info about things going on
- Citymapper is your bff for navigating the subway/bus/transit/walking/etc and is great with keeping you posted on any delays
- On this note also always check an MTA app or citymapper etc to see if trains are running, can save you time and sanity
- So many free concerts and events at places like the 92nd Street Y, in Bryant Park, SummerStage in Central Park
- If you like TV you can go to tapings of shows or get paid to be part of the studio audience on websites like 1iota or Shadow Casting and Productions
- Also can get lots of free things from pop ups that different brands host throughout the city, my roommate usually finds them on instagram
- Join the free rewards program of your favorite coffee place / grocery store/ etc
