Bedbugs in Brooklyn: Get Used to Them [Brooklyn Daily Eagle]
A whole house made out of granite? – that won’t make Mr. B happy. But the geiger counter should be chirping.
Oooooh…bedbugs. That is such an unpleasant thought. I have known a few people who had them in their homes but have so far been spared myself. I can’t think of many things worse than being attacked by parasites in your own bed.
Dave…you going to that Gay Rodeo the What was talking about on Friday???
I’m not Dave…..if you look at my profile I’m actually Dave’s 1905-built brownstone posting “anthropomorphically.”
The scary thing about bedbugs is that no one is immune. Our offices in a large building in Manhattan were evacuated last week for fumigation of–you guessed it–bedbugs. People bring them in from their homes, the subways, and everywhere else. It was sort of a comical sight – a group of office workers running amok, trying to refrain from hysterics.
I referenced the “bold type guest” dust-up in the outing. Glad you still have him.
I think its terrible when someone has a sockpuppet. However it does usually kick start the posts when it’s discovered!!!!!
Dave-it happened over several threads on Friday (notably the Cambridge Pl auction thread and the “everyone wants to live in the city” thread). “Dow” and “What” kept backing each other up in very obvious efforts to bolster their doomsday rants. The pattern was unmistakable. Only DOW fessed up though, “The What” hasn’t come clean.
wasder I think he saw the condom name that his buddy was using and mixed up the words a little.
