#3: High Alert
The past two years have been a lot for people. People who live in a high-density city like New York have especially been full of tension due to the fact that everyone lives, works, and walks so close to each other. That’s why when this woman casually coughed in a Whole Foods store, everyone freaked out.
We can totally picture the tense silence and freaked-out stares this woman received after coughing out loud in public. In classic New York fashion, she wasn’t even slightly apologetic and was quick to defend herself. She knew she wasn’t sick and said so! She loudly lamented the fact that no one can simply choke on their own spit in public anymore. Ah, how we long for the good old days…
