The Times square was the first place I visited in the US, Imagine a bright TV on four walls in a room playing unskippable YouTube ads. That was my feeling, I have no idea why people go crazy about watching ads. To each their own.
- wildrhythms 3y agoThe novelty of Times Square wears off real fast. I work in NYC and everybody I know avoids the area if at all possible. I think even tourists realize how disgusting it is. It's an attack on the senses, a pure monument to capitalism.
- _fat_santa 3y agoIn a messed up way I almost think of Times Square as a piece of art representing capitalism. It's one of the few places on earth where the ads are part of the architecture, that is Times Square wouldn't be what it is without those massive ads. It's also just such a hilarious tourist trap because it carries pretty much all the hallmarks of a "tourist trap". Fun to go there once for the novelty and to see the ridiculousness, but like other commenters have said, wouldn't go back there again.
