The mad egg-tosser who lives in the Novo has once again lashed out at the dog run underneath the 4th Avenue condo. A few nights ago, a woman says she brought her dog to the run so he could do his evening business and someone chucked an egg down at her from the condo. On the one hand: As in the incident four weeks ago, the dog and owner were in the run in the evening, when it’s supposed to be closed. On the other: The woman says her dog wasn’t making noise, and that she’s been taking him to the run at night since it opened more than a year ago. Questions abound among the run’s users. Is the egger perhaps a teenager, or just a crazy person? Do most of the Novo’s residents feel enmity towards the dog run? When will peace be restored in the Slope???

  1. rob- Aren’t you the guy who claimed an egg could blind or deafen someone? What do you think a bb gun in the face would do? As for the dog- he’d just lick off the egg. He’s me a sticky mess but he wouldn’t be blind or bleeding.

  2. It’s kinda funny – when people are on here trying to find non-violent, friendly ways to solve QOL conflicts – everyone makes fun of them for being passive aggressive midwestern transplants and then tell a funny, exaggerated anectode about how ‘back in the day’ beefs with neighbors in Brooklyn were solved with some combonation of a blunt object and profanity.

    This person seems to be solving their beef ‘old school brooklyn style’ and they are STILL an annoying transplant.

  3. if someone threw an egg at my dog and i happen to have a BB gun (not a 9 MM or anything like that, duh) yes, id shoot them in the face. what does that have to do with being a grown-up!?

    *rob*

  4. I think this story might be urban legend.

    If its at night and you and your dog are walking around on gravel, there is no way you’d see or hear an egg being tossed unless it landed right near you. And while the Novo is very close, you’d still need REALLY good aim to be able to get the egg that close….

  5. If the run is closed at night, whatever night means, then the Slope got fucked. Before the Novo, there were two dog runs, and you could go there all the time without having to worry about yuppie egg throwers. Now there is just one run, and a lot of people don’t like it cuz of the gravel bed.

    Great job boymegreen!
