And to that I would add the following ways:
(1) Wear a "George W. Bush" t-shirt
(2) Attempt to distribute Right to Life literature
(3) Say to every passing stroller, "Your kid isn't as cute as you think s/he is"
(4) Suggest building a high-rise condo on the corner of Third Street and Seventh Avenue
(5) Suggest building a high-rise section-8 building on the corner of Union Street and Seventh Avenue
(6) Advocate busing all PS 321 students to PS 284 in Brownsville in order to achieve economic parity in Brooklyn
(7) Go to the Tea Lounge and have a loud, profanity-laden conversation with your friends

1. Explain to them that your rent is only $25o a month for your 3 bedroom 2 bath duplex because you were smart enough to move here 25 years ago when everyone else would have rather lived in Brooklyn Heights or Cobble Hill

2. Be a humanitarian and sell your Ps Brownstone for half a mil less than it is worth. Then call every paper and mag to come down and do an article on you. All this publiscity will lower the selling price for all those other Park Slope homeowners who inherited their house from their great grandparents and now want to sell for 2 million and move to florida.
4. Remind them of their non-native Brooklyn roots.
5. Laugh at them because they can't afford Manhattan.
6. Tell them you're Park Slope's biggest landlord and you can't wait to evict Al Di La and the Tea Lounge/s because the Men's Shelter said they'll pay higher rent. _________________ I'm a Chain Belt...that's called the "quart of blood" technique.

Post that you think cigars are nasty-ass and stink up an entire block's worth of sidewalk. Give me eau de pickles any day!
I do avoid actually giving people looks for smoking the damn things though. I mean, it's a free country an' all.

(OT but related to these last t-shirt posts)
Overheard in a coffee shop a few weeks back:
"Last time someone listened to a Bush, the ended up wandering the desert for years..."
Was good for a giggle.

yes, i really do have one. I wish I could remember the name of the store...someplace in the E. Village.
My friend got one that said "Make Love, Not War, Lick Bush in '04". A bit dated now, but got some fun responses

Also, during election time, Toys in Babeland had "Trust No Bush But Your Own" on their window. I do have a photo _________________ Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball!
#33. Have a dog. Apparently, it's soooooo cruel to keep a dog in the city, that even if you rescued one and gave it mouth to mouth yourself, you're still gonna get "the look."
#34. Don't let the mother with a stroller/kid cut in front of you. As much as your life might count, her needs are always more urgent..... even when they're not.
#35. When a mother tells her kid, "Say thank you to the lady," and you say, "No thanks." (It comes from the kid, or not at all, sez I.)
#36. Like a place that isn't exactly 22% black, 12% hispanic, 6%Asian, and 60% white.
#37. Tell people you honestly don't care about their renovations, and give THEM the look.
#38. Move in, cut down your neighbor's 100 year old tree, and put up a fence so you can have "privacy"
#39. FUCKING CAR ALARMS!!
#40. Have sex in front of a brownstone.
#41. Say something negative about muslims. (You can still joke about Priests and Rabbis though) _________________ Ask a burning question, get a burning answer.

I see tons of people with dogs in the slope. TONS. Much more than other neighborhoods. Do you really think that Park Slopers don't like dogs? I don't know about that one...

Geez Chipster, children don't emerge from the womb knowing that they should say thank you. When a parent tells a child to say thank you to someone, they are trying to teach them the right thing to do. You could cut a parent a small break here and play along. Some of us don't want to raise self absorbed, entitled, unthankful little brats.

#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.

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

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.
