Closing Bell: Sign o' the Times in Park Slope
A reader sent in this photo of a sign that was posted on Union and Fifth Avenue the other night, along with some insightful commentary: “It really made me realize that this kinda sums it up right now. The neighborhood is in a battle with itself.” GMAP

I think the aim these days is to see how many lame blogs you can get your “art” posted up on and the working masses all riled up about.
Score one, “artist”!
Someone really should start a fund for the poor dears. Some kind of–oh, I don’t know–TRUST FUND?
SUCK IT SLOPERS!! Crown Heights RULES!
This also calls to mind the new generation of little Park Slope kids – I see them walking down the street with their backpacks and starbucks asking their moms “Mom, if Jenny sleeps over can we get Thai?” – they’re only 10 and they know more about music, politics and especially fashion than I do – in 10 years they will be very disappointed in learning their isn’t a hip enough city on the planet for them. Poor kids
Hey, don’t t send ’em my way!

These people make my skin crawl. Priviledged 22 year old hipsters from the ‘burbs lamenting the loose of “old brooklyn” that the know only from ’70s films. “scumification” “i hate gentrification”
The first time any of these kids get mugged on their way home from a fake “dive bar” drinking $5 PBRs with their other friends while comparing their$110 “vintage” jeans and listing to their $300 I-Pods they’ll be back in their mommies BMW SUV’s looking for condos in Short Hills before you can say “Yuppie”
Hipsters get a life, grow up, and go live near the Marcy Houses for a taste of “scumification.”
hrmmm posted right around the corner from Union Hall, how fitting.
well, we can always keep 8:24 as a scum mascot. shows that we’re “keeping it real.”
with the housing market collapse scumification may well return, but not in PS.
