They'll get married and move to Park Slope in a few years and they'll be like "BROOKLYN! WHO KNEW!" and have two babies and few years after that they'll buy a house near their parents in Connecticut.― Orson Wellies (in orbit), Monday, June 2, 2014 9:27 AM (8 minutes ago) Bookmark Flag Post Permalink

the number of nytimes articles that are based on the theme of "BROOKLYN! WHO KNEW!" is astounding
you can buy dollar pizza on like every street in manhattan
― iatee, Monday, 2 June 2014 13:49 (ten years ago) link
it all tastes exactly the same but is often better than non-dollar slices because it hasn't been sitting under a heat lamp for 6 hours
― iatee, Monday, 2 June 2014 13:50 (ten years ago) link
I wonder what fucking year the NYT will notice that no one can afford a non-anxious lifestyle in Brooklyn either.

as much as new york is overpriced there are still exponentially more 'nice areas to live' here in 2014 than any other city in america
― iatee, Monday, 2 June 2014 13:53 (ten years ago) link

have to admit that 75% of the time i don't know why anyone lives in NY

Krusty: No offense, kid, but your mom's a dingbat! There's no silver lining here. I was a big cheese. A _huge_ cheese! And now look at me! I got to ride the bus like a schnook. I got to live in an apartment like an idiot! I have to wait in line with a bunch of nobodies to buy groceries from a failure! Bart: It doesn't matter what you did wrong, though, as long as you're on TV people will respect you.Krusty: [ spits ] Bah. What good is respect without the moolah to back it up. Everywhere I go I see teachers driving Ferraris, research scientists drinking champagne. I tried to drink a Coke on the bus, and they took away my pass! [ breaks a bottle of scotch ] That's no life for a famous clown.

Oh, so she wasn't talking about Totino Party Pizzas, then. That's a deprivation that no one should have to endure.
― Christine Green Leafy Dragon Indigo, Monday, 2 June 2014 14:40 (ten years ago) link
When I first read it, I assumed she meant frozen pizza on sale for $1.

Because $1 pizza is still made by human hands in a restaurant/storefront and served hot.

NYC is its own kind of hell if you've been living here long enough to remember enjoying/affording most of the culture while working a "get-by" job.
― images of war violence and historical smoking (Dr Morbius), Monday, 2 June 2014 15:12 (ten years ago) link
and when so many fucking people didn't take the F in Brooklyn
there are things to recommend new york. i'm living here because i wouldn't want to live anywhere else.Well, Jersey honestly. But i got priced out!
― Look at this joke I've recognised, do you recognise it as well? (forksclovetofu), Monday, 2 June 2014 15:13 (ten years ago) link
yes it is cheaper to live in Kensington than jersey city now.
haha so much for the ppl at the fmu fair telling me to move to JC yesterday
― images of war violence and historical smoking (Dr Morbius), Monday, 2 June 2014 15:18 (ten years ago) link

omg all of this misery to avoid queens
― iatee, Monday, 2 June 2014 15:20 (ten years ago) link
yes Queens is one's way of admitting one really doesnt want to live in NY
― images of war violence and historical smoking (Dr Morbius), Monday, 2 June 2014 15:21 (ten years ago) link
i thought that was long island
― Mordy, Monday, 2 June 2014 15:21 (ten years ago) link
The G is going to stop at Nassau Ave for 5 weeks this summer, avoiding Queens at this point requires no explanation.

knee-jerk anti-queens hate is the only thing keeping it cheap so I guess I shouldn't complain
― iatee, Monday, 2 June 2014 15:23 (ten years ago) link
basically ppl try to sell me on Queens now with "you'll be close to the Mets!" ie i'm a celibate neo-retiree who only cares about baseball.
― images of war violence and historical smoking (Dr Morbius), Monday, 2 June 2014 15:24 (ten years ago) link
there are nice neighborhoods in queens w/ cheaper rents that are like 20 mins from manhattan, the mets are really not queens selling point for most people
― iatee, Monday, 2 June 2014 15:25 (ten years ago) link
no, it is a tailored pitch.
also FOOD is a big selling point, and i am the least foodie person on earth
i will not see anyone i know now in those nice neighborhoods

i like queens! my first paying-my-rent apartment was in long island city and there are tons of great neighborhoods! i'm in bk solely because of my gal having a place here where i pay under 1k for my share of the rent.

there are also lots of nice parts of the bronx, I would probably move to the bronx over brooklyn at this point
― iatee, Monday, 2 June 2014 15:32 (ten years ago) link
Everyone I know who in recent years has moved to New York from Cleveland lives in Queens or the Bronx.
― Disagree. And im not into firey solos chief. (Phil D.), Monday, 2 June 2014 15:39 (ten years ago) link
i have never been a fan of brooklyn but i have discovered that large swaths of it are still undiscovered unhipsterized portions. so of course i'm helping gentrify them now.
