Conversations heard between 11:15-11:35pm Thursday night on Houston St, from Avenue A to Thompson St.

“It’s easy. We just take the six.”

“The six?”

“Yeah, the six. We on the east side now.”

***

“I’m sorry, baby, I can’t take you ‘less you going uptown.” (a cabbie shouting out his window to the Australian tourist who had flagged him down.)

***

“Dude, she took him to Katz’s and then back to her apartment and… that was IT.”

***

“Why you always yellin’? Why you always so noisy?”

“Cause we in Manhattan! No one even notices here!”

***

“The whole places has like… bugs and stuff… eew!”

“Yeah, not really a place with that sexy feeling.”

***

“I been tryin’ to call you but you don’t answer your phone.”

“What’s that? Oh, yeah. I usually can’t hear it because of the traffic.”
