>Y'all may be scientists but I know New York

How is this a useful skill? Seriously? What does she bring to the team? That she knows where the better Thai place is? That she knows which street is closed due to construction? That she knows which halal guy has the best cookie cutter gyro that won't make you sick? What the fuck useful skill is this shit? This helps nothing for a team whose goal is to understand and trap paranormal entities from a different plane of existence.

Can any other NYers confirm that their knowledge of the city makes them excellent ghost trappers?

You have a 0.0023% chance of getting murdered and most of those murders come from hood nigger areas like the Bronx and Brownsville. Thats a far cry for your retarded point about danger lurking in every corner you dumb fuck.

This Chicago nigga, where we already had a hundred murders in January. NYC is as segregated as Chicago anyway, the murders all happen in the Bronx and Queens. If you stick to Manhattan and Brooklyn you're safe as safe can be, just like if you stick to the north and downtown in Chicago.

germanfag here - 3 nights in a row i stumbled through new york drunk. not even in the areas where black people where hanging around on the sidewalk at 3am i got into a dangerous situation.

People should be genuinely offended by this. Winston carried himself with dignity not as a black man but just as a man equal to the others while this gorilla is such a walking stereotype that all she's missing are 5 kids and a welfare check.

New York is the only worthwhile city in the whole country, so naturally Americans treat it like some sort of mystical place that requires a guide to traverse. Because Americans are stupid and easily frightened.

Fuck 'almost'. We're talking about the difference between one and two. You nearly double the amount of murders when saying 'almost one a day' 365 is only 35 less than 400 you number abusing fuck. 165 days a year statistically without a murder is not 'almost a murder every day'

It's over 50%, so it rounds up. This is elementary school level math.

NYC here. I can confirm my knowledge of NYC is good for not getting killed by niggers. And Puerto Ricans.

Useful skill set, 10/10 form me.
>>
>>66716288
You're right, it rounds up to ONE MURDER EVERY TWO DAYS

365 DAYS/200 MURDERS = 1.825 DAYS/1 MURDER

When something statistically doesn't happen 165 days out of the year it's not 'almost every day of the year'
>>
>>66714133
Fef
>>
>>66716667

200 murders/365 days = 54% of days have a murder

As we know from grade school, if something is over half it rounds up. Therefore, 200 murders is ABOUT 1 murder per day.

From what I gathered, she works in public transport. She knows the subway lines, how to travel them on foot, where there are troubled sections, and other potential issues.

Considering that it seems like the ghosts are pouring out from the underground this seems like a valid skillset.

But New York doesn't have 200 murders a year. In 2014 it has 333, its lowest ever, which is pretty damn close to 1 murder a day. Now it is correct to say that's a meaningless statistic and rate is what matters, but I don't where the idea of 200 murders came from.
