Apparently you don't know "the city" is slang for New York City. I can remember many a time at UB when heard "the city" from co-students in their new yawk or long island accents talk about it ad nauseam. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ok ... what does UB have to do with it. I’m confused. Isn’t it clear he’s referring to Boston Quote Link to post Share on other sites

UB is not in vicinity of NYC. Boston is closer to NYC than UB. Students went to UB to be as far as possible from NYC and still have in state tuition so mommy and daddy would pay for. I remember a picture showing area of damage of nuclear bomb. Boston would have major impact from it but WNY no. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Call_Of_Ktulu 2,376 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 You can only listen to that Boston accent for so long then you just have to move. We were talking about who has the most annoying accent at the Bowling alley last week and it was Boston in a landslide. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So much this. ”Where are you from?” ”The City.” “Oh, cool, which part?” ”Well, like, 45 minutes outside The City...” ”So, Long Island??” ”Yeah, but, like I go to The City all the time.” I probably had that conversation a thousand times at UB 😂 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
