New York City is full of fun little quirks that make living there an adventure. Winter, spring, summer, or fall, there is always something that you could do without.

New York Little Miseries offers a real taste of The Big Apple!

Misery is when one building on your block doesn't shovel the snow. Misery is stepping over pool of ugly gray slush at each street corner. Misery is a cold subway platform. Misery is too much heat in your apartment. Misery is a wet puddle on the subway seat. Misery is a metro card machine that only takes cash.

Gripe and groan all you want. You know you love it.
