I was born and have lived in Brooklyn, NY my whole life. When asked where I am from, I don’t usually answer New York. Even though Brooklyn is part of NYC, most of us native Brooklynites are happy to identify more with being from our borough than the bigger city.

When I started looking over the quiz, I wondered when they say NYC, do they mean Manhattan or anywhere in the 5 boroughs? Based on the questions, my guess would be that the quiz is referring to Manhattan.

- How often do you drink?
- How do you feel about money?
- Not having a car would be:
- Having my soul crushed on a daily basis sounds:
- True or False: I enjoy having reliable internet access
- The ideal number of stairs I would climb in a day is?
- Paying $60 for two bags of groceries is my idea of:
- When I see crazy stuff on the street, I typically:
- How do you eat your pizza?
Here is my result:
Not so surprisingly, I got the answer Yes, go for it.

That one had my head scratching — so perhaps these quizzes are ridiculous after all…
The answer for me is “No way!”
Although I myself was born in Brooklyn and lived there for years, perhaps it was a good thing I moved away…
Brian- That is funny! Where in Brooklyn are you from and where did you move to? The Buzzfeed quizzes are ridiculous but also quick & fun!
I tried replying twice but they vaporized..
Hmmm… I’m not sure what you mean?
