Bitching about Park Slope
I just can't be quiet about this any longer.
For the past three days in a row I have ordering sandwiches from Pizza Plus, Russos, and Second Helpings respectively.
I always make a minor change to the sandwich on the menu.. specifically I add fresh mozerlla to one and order sans tomatoes to the other. I am very clear and very specific about these changes.
Now, for the past three days they have fucked up my order. This has happened numerous times at all three places.
Honestly, if had only one single responsibility at my job... and I messed it up all the time.. I'd be fired.
I think this is a signal of the dumbing of Americans. I hope it's simple dumbing and not shear lack of pride for ones work.
It's disgusting.

george bush is probably responsible.

Reread your post. You have a typo in the first line. The word you wanted was QUIET and that is what I wish you were about all your complaints.
I have no further response to your posting but I bet other people will have lots to say. -
You think this is a joke young man?
You won't be laughing when some China man takes your job because you never learned what it meant to do something right... because you never learned about pride in your work... because everyone around you gave you chance after chance until after awhile you just slid into a lard filled pool of complacency.
I'm sick. Disgusted. -
Ay, DR. Why don't you just come out with me and the guys to Pacific Standard right now (will be there by 7). HAve a beer, enjoy the fact that Obama in the WH and let's all get tipsy. Ok?
-
Oh really Veets? You sound like a real gambler.
You know what I wish? I wish people like you wouldn't complain about scratch on the surface when the whole damn thing is broken.
Isn't there a sheep somewhere you should be following or something? -
No Mamacita...
I've had enough glasses of blind hope this week already. I wish B Rock the best.... I just can't stand how people stop trying at the very moment real change and victory is reachable.
Honestly, this coverage and celebration is making me sick. They are dulling the moment and our swords.
Anyway, have one for me. -
Shitty service sucks but I think we have bigger fish to fry in the old US of A.
-
Ok Babe. Don't let it get to you. If you ever want to talk email me.

Always remember with Russo's-- watch your money. On two occasions they have tried to short change me with my change.
...Russos... -
On one hand, I really want to rail on you for such petty complaints, but on the other, I feel you man. I'm the same way. Little things that seem so damn easy. Take your complaints to Yelp where you can direct other folk in better ways to spend their cash.

Why is it a not a surprise to me that DR can't get serviced? ;-)

Obviously you don't read my posts. I do not come here to complain. I share information and receive it. Trying to engage in conversation with you on this site is no gamble. Your intentions are negative and so anyone who refrains from answering your posts IS the winner of the gamble.

Enough said. -
Veets,
My intentions are rarely negative when I post on this site.
You started this argument by calling me out on a spelling mistake... a grammar complaint if you will. I don't think that the most neighborly and sensible use for this board is to house our bickering - that is better done in a dark bar of my choice while holding a broken beer bottle.
As such, I need to end this feud... as the winner, and champion of the universe. Thanks for playing Veets. -

Veets, didn't they spell "QUIET" the same way you did? Maybe YOU should re-read the first sentence you dumb American. Also, if you're not here to complain then what exactly were you doing with your response to Drunken Revival? You're part of the problem veety veet veet. Deal with it.
I have no further response to your posting but I bet other people will have lots to say.
(P.S., I purposely misspelled a word above and I would appreciate if you pointed it out for me) -
Whoa! Don't attack Veets - she is teh awesome!
DR edited the post so it was spelled correctly. -
I figured that much but oh well. I'm a bully.

Wait a sec...I thought I was the bully?? Fucksticks.

Oh sweetie, you are The Bully!

No interest in slamming you because you are a newbie. We all were once newbies here and sometimes you need a thick skin to participate in Broklynian.
As far as the "spelling error"... take note there is an "edit" function if you make a mistake in what you post, whether that be spelling or content. -
woops I mispelled Brooklynian.. I should change that!
-
God damnit. If you people keep fighting amongst yourselves, no one will care that I'm bullying all of you for your lunch money. Selfish bastards.

Ever since Obama's been President - I have gotten great service in Park Slope.

Slam me Veets, slam away. I deserve it. I only have 50 posts to your 1400. I'm just not worthy. -
51....well now 52

I just changed the title of this post... now all bitching can happen right here under one roof.
Love that edit button although I'll likely always differ to my stream of conscience rage and genius. -

I was wondering what happened. BTW- That new avatar is CRAZY!

Howdy, Stranger!
