When tourists come to the Big Apple, sometimes they are oblivious to our cultural habits. It may be socially acceptable to smile at strangers in places like Florida or California or Chicago or the rest of the country, but not here. Please allow us to read our copy of The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest minus the creepout. If you plan on visiting New York, please be sensitive to our needs.

It looks like the individual responsible for this friendly reminder is the same one responsible for the Please do not feed rats after midnight sign from a couple weeks ago. Thanks again to Vince for the tip!
