“This city is soft. Restrictions on freedoms left and right. I remember when you could smoke in bars… those were the days. Now I light up in a restaurant and there’s some lady saying, ‘ooh don’t do that, my baby is right here.’ Hey lady? Your baby can complain when it pays taxes.”
Koffing, 59, Manhattan
“My cousin runs with a gang. Maybe even a cult. All white outfits, crazy dyed hair, rhyming mantras and slogans. Kidnapping, theft, assault, these guys are bad news. Every once in a while I sit down with him to chat about it, to try and change his mind. Then before I know it he’s out the door, blasting off again…”
Meowth, 33, Bushwick
“This kind of party isn’t really my scene. I don’t know anyone here except my friend that I came with. I was honestly hoping for a chill night in. Some Netflix, maybe make some popcorn. But my friend’s still really upset about her breakup, called me up, and told me she needed to go out tonight, you know, be with other people. I’m not having a great time, but sometimes you gotta put the people you care about first. It’s what being a good friend is all about.”
Bulbasaur, 22, Brooklyn
