"Where are we?" (Hint.) "It’s like one of those movies set in New York City but clearly filmed in Canada..." [Awl]

This has such potential, one good telephoto and you can "TextSnoop" and post these peoples mundane and lurid lives for all of us to see. If someone buys me the camera, I'll do the pics. ;)
That quiz wore me out. Scored 116...must go lie on a bench now.
I bailed on the quiz when it asked why I moved here...
I scored a 17, which is why I'm leaving.
17? no wonder you're heading to jersey... but you must have picked "sitting home in my underwear eating chunky munky" for every question!
113. Git outa mah city, touron.
Scored a 115, but it's prolly because I was born and raised here...won't go anywhere else.
PS i feel bad for the Cooper Square people forced into those parties in the hotel by their window. Ugh
