This story seems pertinent to the discussion. On one hand it reinforces the rattlesnakes=upstate equation but it also shows how close Rockland County is to the city since the victim was evacuated by an NYPD helicopter to a city hospital.

A good friend is from Malone. I've been there a couple times. No matter how you slice it, Malone is upstate. Hell it's almost in Ontario.

Helos and cops aside- regarding the cab situation, I feel your pain there. Multiple times I attempted to stage a sit-in protest in the back of a yellow cab that wouldn’t drive me back to the Bronx. Of course, every time my wife talked me out of it and secured alternative transportation. She’s so sensible.

i have a remarkably similar story where my aunt prevented me from making a very large fool of myself trying to head to brooklyn. i think back and cringe, it was so bad and could have been so much worse. one of those things where sometimes even when you’re in the right, there are no winners. live and learn, i hope!

No. I have an aunt that insists we’re 1/16 Native American but I’m pretty sure she’s full of shit. These were simple “I’m never gonna find a fare for the return trip up there” incidents.
Yeah, you nailed it. Hopefully I’ve learned something over the years. No guarantees though.

This actually begs the question: who is more better-equipped to determine what Upstate is?
The bridge and tunnel crowd?
Those actually living in the City (Manhattan only you poors)?
Those actually residing in points Upstate?
Western New Yorkers/Bills Mafioso/Ontario?
The TRG brain trust?I still call it The Jake.

Oh, ok, just asking. That's probably why you made it to the back seat. I drove a NYC taxi, and, yeah, outer borough trips sucked, so you avoided them big time. Gypsy territory.
If you wanted to fuck with the dude, never leave the cab and call the cops, just to waste his time. Take his number and report him. That actually works sometime.
