Moving

I wish I lived in a neighborhood that I loved so much that I would exaggerate its faults just so new people would stop moving in.

I wish I viewed others as so dumb that I thought they would fall for it.

I envy you MHA

It's gonna be like 'Do The Right Thing'-- from Bizarro World in the summer. Think of your tackiest rap video, throw in the persistent smell of weed, loud music perpetually, and the whoop-whoop of the sound of 'the beast'; don't forget the pre-Labor Day celebrations as music is played all day and night. Believe me, you are going to regret it.

Seriously. Sterling between Bedford and Franklin is not a friendly block.

But dude, that IS the truth.... Dude! I'm serious here! Photogirl might beguile you with her niceness, but ask her, when SHE moved to the block, I told her in earnest what the deal was. I PM'ed her some stuff that was the real-deal-Holyfield, honest-to-goodness truth about the block.

It's NOT a friendly block.

I am on your block often. I say hello whenever I see you.

mha

Dude, I have never seen you on my block, and I have never said hello to you on said block.

whynot_31

as I said to you on Tuesday, "Nice Speech".

mha

Aha! The face behind the mask manifests itself! :monkey:

whynot_31

I've been hiding?

Dude, I have never seen you on my block, and I have never said hello to you on said block.

yet you still state such statements and expect me to do nothing but laugh?

mha

Laugh then.

At times, that is a lot to ask of me.

I will proceed as I see fit.

mha

Proceed!

Hey, I was channeling Spencer Tracey. Broad is slang for 'woman'; it is not a pejorative.

Broad means a "loose" woman. In South Pacific they call a woman a dame -- but say that she knows when to be a broad. Modern day language: lady on the street but a freak in the bed. Broad is not a nice thing when referring to women. Even if it means "woman" and has lost the slutty aspect of it, it makes the woman sound more like an object than a human being.

Sinatra used the term a lot. He tried to re-release some recordings and changed the word "girl" to "broad". He was not allowed to record it.
