Typical Brooklyn couple

...The fact that people on this board "don't get it" just makes it better. Cuz they don't get it. They never do....

The Hipster Olympics (despite being a Python rip off) was HILARIOUS. I think there could be an equally funny Park Slope version, but I just did not think this one nailed it. I don't think it's that people "didn't get it" I think that it just fell short of our expectations. I mean, I am sure we can all make fun of (and recognize) the PS stereotypes, I just think the video should have played them up a bit more.

i thought we decided crocs were for losers? this video is so 2006.

I think that some people believe that Brooklyn is Park Slope, Williamsburg, and the other quickly gentrifying areas such as Bed-Stuy (I know there are more, don't feel like listing...)

The residents of Marine Park, Mill Basin, Brownsville, Bensonhurt, Dyker Heights, Bay Ridge, Midwood (oh lord, I'm listing...) would most likely not even get that skit...it's simply not their reality.

As a girl who was raised in Flatbush, I find it kind of annoying that Brooklyn is losing all of its street cred.

Sigh.

LAME.

I mean, I suppose someone with talent could've made this very funny - but damn this was just a waste of time.

Subject: Lets Thank the Film Makers for Nothing

Talk about moving to New York, observing for 6-monthes, and then creating an video interpretation of things you saw without any sense of style or understanding of Brooklyn, New York, the east coast or life in general. Stop coming to Brooklyn! Please, for your sake, as well as our own …

Having said that, I have no idea what this video is about. If the implication is that PS people are soft, elitist, and provincial, I would beg to disagree. I know a lot of PS couples who would have run after that guy in the bushes and clocked his head off.

And as for the Park Slope Children-Centric Universe Doctrine, give it a rest. There have been kids in this neighborhood for centuries, and probably a lot more when the neighborhood was mostly working class. Most of us respect the families around us, as we all were once children with our parents.



Video Rating: 0.55 out of 4, which is a D.

let me try

years have passed, catherine having nowhere to go has returned to prospect heights, she meets heathcliff on the moors. she pleads with him for a place to live. heathcliff now controls both prospect heights and north slope. with spite in his heart he makes catherine his servant, along with hareton, her former servant.

soon after heathcliff takes ill and becomes obsessed with the memory his beloved catherine (the elder). madness takes him over. all things remind him of her, even the younger catherine who he dispises passionately. in a delusional fog heathcliff chases her ghost across the moors, collapses and dies from exhaution. hareton and young catherine fall in love.

they now own prospect heights.
