    You mean NYC didn’t have those yet, or west Harlem didnt have them?

    Can’t believe fucking Buenos Aires is ahead of you

      I’ve never been close to NYC but I believe the standard procedure was to just throw trash bags on the curb which have a high propensity for breaking open and being easy pickings for the rats.

      They had trashcans, but they switched to plastic bags during a sanitation worker strike in 1969 b/c the chemicals industry donated them.

        Yeah but those bags have to be manually loaded into the trucks, it’s crazy for such city to still have that horrid system

        I know it’s a fake trash bag, but he immediately shakes hands with two people using his trash hands visible-disgust

      I’m an American who has been to Buenos Aires and it’s a genuine paradise compared to literally everywhere in the USA. Or maybe I was just too tourist brained, but Buenos Aires is gorgeous

        Eh, sure it does have a lot of very nice places, beyond the hypergentrified ones I mean, but “gorgeous” eeh idk,

        The pizza and icecreams are the best of the best tho.

        I had a better time living in Córdoba despite being probably worse in every metric imaginable, but having the sierras just one bus-hour away is unbeatable.

        In the gorgeousmeter I would place Mendoza and Salta on top. I’m not considering Bariloche, Ushuaia nor any other patagonian town cuz it’s a silly comparison, Ushuaia is ridiculous.

        Mar del Plata is nice too

        In any case, Buenos Aires should be judged as the big whole the metropolitan area it is, and then the astronomic scale makes it umcomparable to any other city I have lived in. It could be way better, just like any city/metropolitan area.
