The differences between New Yorkers & Parisians, from the article we just found in NY Magazine:
- Smoking in front of the kids. NYers don’t, Parisians do.
- Parisians do not walk around in gym clothes or sweatpants unless they are actually exercising.
- Parisian bobo (yuppie) parents have no problem lecturing, yelling at, or even occasionally smacking their kids in public.
- Parisians do not talk to strangers.
- New Yorkers are so plump.
- New Yorkers carry around their coffee.
- New York parents talk to their kids as though they are their peers.
- New Yorkers are hyperfriendly up front and then forget about you later (unless they need you).
