Oh, I’d never deny that there are streets that smell like piss from time to time, it’s the OP’s assertion that “all” streets do. It’s just silly, as is the extrapolation that New Yorkers must be clueless about the disgusting filth surrounding them.

in my city we somehow contrive not to have any streets at all smell like piss, ever. in the civilized world we stopped using streets as outdoor latrines over a century ago.
I’m not trying to suggest that NYC is a utopia. Far from it, I’m very well aware of its shortcomings. But they can be pointed out without resorting to hyperbole.
