Psssssh. Suckers. One drunken college night I fell asleep on an East Village sidewalk for free!

I'm actually pretty ashamed of that. It was one of the few times that I was ever the drunken mess among my friends. A bunch of them were there, saw it all, and took care of the situation quickly enough, but still

And by "situation," we know you mean "emeses."

So about the same as a night at a hotel then?

Sweet.

No wonder all those people are homeless there if it costs that much to sleep outside.

unlikely: So about the same as a night at a hotel then?

Sweet.

are we factoring in parking??

also, does this apply to the occupy movement?

is there still an occupy movement?

It must be so relaxing to lie on your back and watch everyone stare at you from their windows as you fall asleep.

Uh, unless you work on Broadway or you're a Wall street douchebag there's no reason to live in NYC. God what a malevolent hellhole.

Came here to say this. No thanks.

What happens when it rains?

Can we bring our wine-condoms?

;)

Meh, once, I woke up in a Soho doorway. A policeman knew my name.....

I want to like smores, but I just don't.

It's booked by Shirley Manson?

...what stars? Name one major US city where you can see "stars" at night.

Sim Tree: What happens when it rains?

You get wet, but that isn't important right now...

The Stealth Hippopotamus: also, does this apply to the occupy movement?

The ISO has co-opted it and is preparing for more protests this summer.

Can you put up a screen while farking or is that part of the fun, the voyeurism from the neighboring high rises? Plus they can see your morning high rise

giggity

And, wake to a fresh dose of pigeon crap in your eye.

Oh God I loved that song.

Sim Tree: What happens when it rains?

Thunder only happens when it's raining.

Compared to a NYC hotel, that seems about right.

What's the point of sleeping outdoors if you can't have a fire, shoot, offroad, and see real stars? WTF New York...

Nevermind, you have a the duke of Manhattan making executive orders banning large soda drinks.

Well, the first 2 were going on last summer...

A telescope is provided for all zero stars you'll be able to spot?

That'll teach those ninety-nine percenters to stay the fark home!

YOU GO, BLOOMBERG!

So, the police can't arrest you for having sex in your accommodations, even if it's outside, right?

MrEricSir: Sim Tree: What happens when it rains?

She's only happy when it's complicated.

I'd rather just stay here in portland, or and enjoy a night with a beautiful woman with this

basemetal: Meh, once, I woke up in a Soho doorway. A policeman knew my name.....

I'm sure he told you that you go sleep at home tonight if you can get up and walk away?

Wouldn't that be pretty loud as well? I didn't think it was a particularly quiet city.

I sleep in the nude so I would ruin a lot of people's appetites....for a few days.

L.A. Try Sunset Blvd.

"Bee Girl" would like to have a word...

If you were farking your bombshell girlfriend up there, that would be pretty hot. But the reality is that you're going to be jostling for space with all the hookers and their johns on the rooftops.

A construction supervisor once told me about a repeat roofing job on the Wang Center in Boston, and no one could figure out where the punctures were coming from, until they finally figured out it was from the hooker's heels. They were taking their johns onto the roof of the Wang Center. Wang Center. Wang.

Touche,

The ex-New Yorkers I know tell me stories about old NYC in the 80's and early 90's which are awesome.

My LA friends also tell me how cool LA was before the San Frans and New Yorkers found the rent was cheaper in Los Angeles in the late 90's early 00's. Got the f... out of LA as well. It's becoming a fiefdom.

When I lived in Park Slope in Brooklyn, I had access to the backyard. One day I came back from 2-weeks camping, and found that my basement apartment had been flooded with sewer water. Setup my hammock in the backyard for a few days until the place got cleaned-up. I was surprised to see how many racoons roam the backyards of Brooklyn at night.

Two for one night

1999 should get you a lot of space.

Have fun falling asleep to the lovely sounds of sirens and drunk partiers on the street.

I dunno what the tour guide told you, son, but those are prostitutes.

spaten: What's the point of sleeping outdoors if you can't have a fire, shoot, offroad, and see real stars? WTF New York...

You sound twelve.

You can also sleep outside in NYC for free. Of course you'll need one of these.

Mugato: Uh, unless you work on Broadway or you're a Wall street douchebag there's no reason to live in NYC. God what a malevolent hellhole.

0.5/10. The half point is because I like your name.

Wise_Guy: spaten: What's the point of sleeping outdoors if you can't have a fire, shoot, offroad, and see real stars? WTF New York...

Didn't mention skinny dipping and f..king chicks under the stars.

You sound like a ignorant city/suburb dweller.

That's okay, I don't like people enough to ever visit NYC.

styckx: A telescope is provided for all zero stars you'll be able to spot?

Of course you can't see stars in any big city, especially NYC. I presume the scope is for looking into neighbors' windows.

Mugato: Uh, unless you work on Broadway or you're a Wall street douchebag there's no reason to live in NYC. God what a malevolent hellhole.

Ahem, some of us enjoy malevolent hell-holes.

I wouldn't pay $20/night to sleep outdoors a block from Central Park South, though, much less $2000/night. The smell of horse droppings has a way of wafting on a warm summer night...

Ooo skinny dipping.

You sound twelve AND rebellious.

Good for you, Cletus.

It's bullshiat like this that make me sick of living in this damn city.

Suckers.... I can sleep outside my parents' house at Lake Chelan for free.....and have a great view of the stars, satellites, and meteor showers.
