B&Ters
B&Ters are the people who try to be cool in Manhattan but are just there because they can't afford to live in the city. They go to bars and clubs and think they're in on some big secret, but they’re just there because they’re cheap.
'I'm not trashy. I just like to dance in the club and pretend I'm rich.'
'I came from Brooklyn, not some fancy place. I just wanted to escape my roommate's cat.'
'I don't live in the Village. I live in a real house with a working toilet.'
