You shouldn’t take things personally that aren’t personal. I didn’t say it smells of YOUR pee, just OF pee. It’s a natural normal thing in old cities. For most of human history, especially in the west, we weren’t really... particular... about where we peed. And horses still aren’t. At that kind of stuff, when it happens day after day, for years, centuries even, soaks in really well, and effuses for a long time. It’s like a dog run, if you let a bunch of dogs do their business in the same chunk of the yard for years, that chunk of yard will not smell spring time fresh for quite a while afterwards. Maybe in another century or so NYC will get better. San Fransisco still has a long way to go, worst smelling place I’ve ever been, worse than Mexico.
You know, I’ve been patient. But since you’ve claimed that New York is 500 years old, let me set you straight: New York is not 500 years old. Remember Columbus? He sailed the Ocean Blue several years before that in 1492. So while you might have a very delicate olfactory organ, your math and history skills stink.
New York does not smell of pee. Many extended experiments with pee and concrete, and pee and tar, have been unable to
discover a way to make it soak into either.
It does soak into clothing though and smells bad when it does. Have you thought about that?
