New York City

A huge realm of streets, buildings, people, etc., sitting on western Long Island, all of Staten and Manhattan Islands, and the peninsula to the north of Manhattan Island, as well as several other isles at the mouth of the Hudson River in North America. My birthplace is somewhere in there.

Me: Penn Station is in New York City.
She: Oh? Where in New York?
Me: Um, 34th St. Midtown. Take the train into New York on Amtrak or on NJ Transit or the LIRR, and you shouldn't miss it.

New York Gay

A popular gay. Usually seen in, or from, upstate New York. These gays fit in well with straight high school/college jocks. They’re often seen on Snapchat cuddling or in close proximity to conventionally straight men.

John: Hey man. Who was that guy in your bed last night??

Nick: oh, that’s just Andrew. He’s from New York.

John: ohhh I didn’t know you were gay.

Nick: ME? GAY? Nahhh... Andrew is a New York Gay. Ya know?
John: OHHH that makes more sense.

A joke by the students of St. John's University, a University in New York. The meaning is essentially how St. John's University's tuition is expensive, like Harvard, as a joke. St. John's University is also known as the Harvard of Queens.
