I've moved to Harlem

[Zolo]

After a frustrating two weeks trying to find an apartment, I gave up. Getting an apartment lease without a credit score or pay studs as a foreigner was a nightmare. And dealing with real estate agents was worse.
I've rented a room in Hamilton Heights on 145th.

Why?

It's cheap, near two colleges, near 5 trains, and it's in Manhattan. Simples.

Plus, plenty of black and latinas

[The Realness]

nice. harlem is much safer now than it used to be even 5-10 years ago

[mistersnort]

Yeah harlem has changed alot since the old days, its not the bad place it once was. Once developers started waving some money in the poor peoples face they sold and ran out so its not even a bad area anymore, mostly middle class people now.

Id be heading straight to the Dominican and Colombian neighborhoods

[PlanetOzzy]

Dude!!!!!!!!!! You're in my neighborhood. Hamilton Heights holy shittt that's like steps away from my cousins. Great place to live but don't bank on the college parties. i dont know what college you're talking about besides city college but if i were you and looking to hit the younger undergraduate parties go to nyu and columbia!

I was in Harlem last spring for one day. It was enough.

I got out ASAP.

Be careful dude.

I don't know how dangerous it "used to be" but it felt sketchy as fuck to me.

I hear a massive amount of black chicks in the big apple have herpes. Like it was the biggest demographic for some reason.

To be fair though if you have not caught the players curse then your not a proper one yet.

Plus on the bright side you don't have to worry about catching it again. Don't mention it to Americans though they suffered through to much disease mongering by valtrax they all behave like little bitches at the mere mention of the herp. A good majority of them claim to have never even had a mouth cold sore because of the stigma over there.

Make sure you don't forget to hop on the subway and head over to Hoboken for some great partying. I grew up there, and although it was a shit-hole in the 80's, it's rock solid nowadays.

[mistersnort]

can you get herpes if you wear condoms?

[THECAPTAINPOWER]

I vouch for hoboken...

[D-Man]

Hoboken is awesome, also check out Washington Heights. I had summer a job coaching kids football just outside New York. At weekends me and the other coaches would party in NYC. One of the coaches pulled a girl from Washington Heights. The place is full of hot latinas Dominicans and Puerta Ricans . Big festivals in the Summer also.

You can catch herpes with a condom. You will catch it at the base unless you have a significant bush grown down there.

I can't imagine how terrible it must be to get it on your bellend. That would be like having a mouth ulcer but on the end of your cock.

You can ultimately protect yourself near 100% through the boxer method. You get a pair of those boxers with buttons on them and slip your dong through them with a condom.

Ultimately though who gives a fuck.

Yeah, Hobo and Washington heights are on my radar. Moving in tomorrow, can't wait!

PS- Planetasrat.. Do you drink at the Harlem Public or Solace? I foresee them being my new locals.
