That’s a thing we do in New York to stay warm

An interesting story about a US tennis coach in Taupo, who didn't work out. The highlight:

The landlady says he gambled on American sports, and she found discarded prescription painkiller packets in his room. He had a habit of putting his hand down his pants during conversations, and one day came home to say had stopped him after receiving reports of someone masturbating in bushes near the tennis club.

“He was really scared, he thought the cops were going to storm the house at any moment.” Feinsod says he put his hands down his pants, like Al Bundy in Married With , because “that's a thing we do in to stay warm“, that he was prescribed painkillers for a foot injury, and the “masturbation” incident was a misunderstanding.

Oh yeah, that's definitely a New York thing. Everyone in New York stands around with their hands down their pants.
