>Then claim your traveling like a real local, i cant help but feel your kind of full of it. If this is your take away, you didn't travel like a local, you didn't meet enough new yorkers.

Similarly in LA. Anytime someone says that "everyone in LA is fake," I find that reflects more poorly on them and how they spent their time there than it does LA. Big cities are different, not inauthentic.
