The Rant Rave thread

Rave: Motorcycle

Rave; Seinfeld's "festivus" episode is on

Rave: I went to see the cherry trees (and all the other pretty stuff) at the BBG today!

Rant: While walking down the sidewalk, a kid (8ish) got my in the face and shirt with his super-soaker. The rant is that his dad was sitting there and didn't make the kid apologize.

Rant: My floor slopes slightly downhill away from my desk so my wheelie office chair is always rolling backwards.

Rave: WHEEEEEEEEEE! (wheelie chair sliding)

Rave: Birthday weekend: Papi Chulo making me french toast with hand carved bacon! nom nom!


belated rave: Actual bday spent with Voodoo having amazing meal and cocktails.

Tomorrow's destination: The Aqueduct flea market is Queens. It should be trashy, cheap and greasy.

Rave: Once again The Mild Ones terrorize the mean streets of Long Island, predictably choosing Panera Bread as their club house of choice....





Rant: Sore butt from 100+ miles of riding

Rave: before I forget again...thank you to the delivery truck on Flatbush when I was walking the dog early yesterday morning.

When he was backing in to where he needed to make the delivery, instead of the usual BEEEEEP-BEEEEEP-BEEEEEP his truck played a MIDI-ringtone-ish instrumental version of this:

	Kaoma - Lambada
	Found at skreemr.com

Seeing and hearing that back into place made my day, thank you.

Whynot totally needs this shirt!


Rave: I think I may have to buy one of the tees from this website

Rave: Dunno if it's been the weather or what, but this has been a phenomenal year for gardens I've noticed throughout the area (Prospect Heights, Park Slope, Prospect Lefferts etc.).

Especially the rose bushes. :shock: :cheers: / =D> :salut: :thumright:

Mamacita - can ah git uh glittergraphic

Rant: Squirrel, you might be cute but you are an ornery little cuss. This makes the fourth time you dug around in my flower pots, uprooting a bunch of seedling flowers. First time I thought, okay maybe you mistook the pots of dirt for a nut refrigerator. Second time I thought maybe you were just making sure. Third time I thought surely this is the last time. Fourth time c'mon son no one is that stupid. You are fucking with me, and this makes me very angry. — I need to reflect on this. On the one hand I feel like teaching you a lesson, maybe leave some habanero peppers out for you. On the other hand I feel like bludgeoning you with a hammer. One way or the other I am going to have some flowers. Capice?

Rave: new flip flops

Are they Reefs? I love my Reefs. My feet have tan marks already in the shape of my Reefs

Rave: Are they brown, like the ones in Arlington VA? http://www.brooklynian.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=57578

Oh man.

Saturday afternoon my longtime trusty Reef black flop flops finally busted in Prospect Park. Boy did I look silly, trying to walk home in what remained.

Anyhow, I went down to the Old Navy on Tilden just off Flatbush (next to Stop&Shop) for Saturday's big $1 flip flop sale. Saw it on @pulseJFK (love that service)

By the time I got there late afternoon, they were all sold out.

I did find an odd pair of a nicer (~$20) variety flip flop that someone just tossed up on a pile of shirts off to the side that happened to be the only one left of its kind in the store, magically in my size, and marked down to $15. And they were in a classic solid color, not some crazy Hawaiian pattern.

So I didn't get the cheap-o ones for the big $1 sale, but I was psyched to have a really nice pair of replacements, since mine had just blown out.

Rant (now, upon having watched whynot's video again):

They are brown. #-o

I guess somehow, somewhere some being needed to maintain balance in the universe.

Too bad your Reefs finally bit the dust. If you are in the market for them again, try Zappos.com (one of my all-time favorite, most customer-focused online shopping sites)

Rant/rave: whenever people swear a kindergarten teacher edits their posts.

ass
hell

hah! he missed a few.

I deliberately left those.

This is Brooklyn, after all.

But fuck you
for noticing.
