The vast area encompassing New York State north of Westchester county. A varied mosaic of farmland, woodland, picturesque rolling hills, and towns and cities ranging from the charming to the decrepit. Generally more provincial and less cosmpolitan than its densely urban New York City counterpart, its citizenry is more approachable and friendly albeit less refined and cultured than the pretentious yuppies of New York and Long Island. Some of its urban centers are buoyed economically and culturally by the influence of many universities and (in the case of the capital region) government administration centers; however most of its large cities are mired in varying states of urban decay and have been hemorrhaging population since the 1950s due to a steady loss of jobs and a subsequent increase in crime. Utica, Rochester, and Newburgh are particularly miserable places to set foot in. Its more rural areas, which feature breathtaking landscapes, are lovely and bucolic albeit mind-numbingly boring to actually live in.
In summation, upstate New York is too large and varied an area to define succinctly. As a native resident of New York City who went to college upstate I can both laud it for being physically beautiful and its natives for being candid, frank, and hospitable while noting that I would never want to live there permanently as life there can grow trite, repetitive, cold as hell, and insufferably boring after a while and the locals' lack of sophistication and city-esque hustle, while charming at first, can also eventually grow unflattering. Not that I'd want them to change. Their lack of tact and culture is offset by their good character and sincerity, something too many city residents and Long Islanders sorely do not have. Both Upstate and Downstate need each other, more or less. It's a yin-yang thing.
New Yorker 1: I'm going upstate for the summer.
New Yorker 2: You'll love it in Upstate New York for the first few weeks. It's nice to get away from the yuppie assholes down here for a while. Eventually, though, you'll need to come back to civilization.

A very short unit of time. Analogous to about a day in one of those flat, boring, rural states in the middle of the country.
"Dude, you better move fast, that shit is gonna get snapped up in a New York minute."

an imaginary amount of time refering to how fast people from new york city (not new york state) do things. the time differences of new york city and the rest of the world is the reason an average yorkie can't survive outside their city for more than 4 days.
yorkie: i went to freakin' colorado and it took this jackass 20 minutes to charge the sweater i bought! you know i'm used to things being done in a new york minute, i can't stand that crap!

the amount of time it takes between a tourist arriving in new york city and the moment he is brutally beaten and mugged.

1. A NEW YORK MINUTE has exactly the same length like every other minute in the World. What gives the expression its meaning is the AMOUNT OF ACTIVITY you can squeeze into a standard minute. Simple: when you are in New York, more things seem to happen in a minute than elsewhere.
2. it is NOT a time mode of Max Payne 2, but the tagline of the games atmosphere. duh!
...everything ripped apart in a New York minute... (tagline of the game Max Payne 2)

When a girl lies down faceing up on a couch with her head hanging off of the side giving a blowjob. As she plays with the tip you jam your cock in so hard she chokes on your dick and you are balls deep in her mouth.
Jim: yo did you break up with sarah yet.
Tom: yeah but i left her a little something before i did
Jim: what did you do.
Tom: I gave her a New York Jackhammer
