How to piss off a Park Slope resident

#43. Flick a finished cigarette onto the trash-laden street of 7th Avenue.

Apparently, the street is spotless save for copius amounts of wrappers, cans, broken glass, broken toys, coffee cups!!!!!, pamphlets, and AMNew Yorks. That is until your cigarette lands there.

Want to load and un-load a 180 pound concreter sink for me? I swear I won't give you a weird look. I'll even let you do it solo if you so insist.

#44. Wear a "No Ozzie's" or "No Gorilla Coffee" t-shirt.

Welll....that sounds fun, but I don't think I could move something that weighs more than my skinny ass. :P Got anything under 130 lbs?

#45 Announce that all of Park Slope's Laundromats are shutting down and that everyone must wash their own socks.

#46 Convert their children to Walmart customers.

# 49 Open a McDonald's franchise on the corner of Union Street and 7th Avenue.

(It would be just as attractive as Manhattan's Olive Garden on 6th Avenue near the former Limelight.)

The co-op IS a cult.

Subject: Tavern on Dean. What? Tavern on Dean! What?!

I only know for sure that this works for Prospect Heights folks, but give it a try in the Slope: Tell someone in a bar that they are being too loud, and then tell them again because it is so incredibly loud in the bar that they can't hear you tell them how loud they are being. :-$

#51 - "P.S. 321 is so overrated."

#54 - Create multiple identities to spam people incessantly on a community message board and then play victim when you get caught.

#57 Call 'em MILFs

#58 Applaud their nannies for raising their children right. Even if they are wheeling around their 10 year old twins in double strollers.

Whist breastfeeding them in public [-X

I think this thread qualifies as the first Park Slope Forum clip show. When did we stop writing new material?

So how do you justify that, Mr. Kotsonis?

62: A rose by any other name is just as sweet. Or a close paraphrase.
We are expanding our space for our own use. That is an as of right for property owners. I have no need to justisfy anything. She was given above average legal notification and she did find alternative spaces.
Whether or not she wishes to relocate or close is her business decision. She also has the option of taking on partners to help absorb the relocation costs. Again, that is a business decision that Jenny must make.

Give it a break Rose, I'd like to see who passes the litmas test of "who shows responsibility to the community." I guess you win; as you are the only one who has been pissed off in this forum.
#63. Make a decision without consulting your coop board, CB6 meeting, neighbors, potential opponents, street activists, mothers, caretakers...
