You’re a true class act Benson.
you
Did someone just fart?
Cute cafe.
actually, there is a huge amount of diversity on brownstoner. Not just backgrounds and culture- but opinion also. And most of us enjoy it. To say it isn’t is simply untrue. But what benson does is preface everything with “oh I know I’ll get attacked for this because I am saying different” and he proceeds to insult other viewpoints and insist the worst of everyone. (How about that artistically and intellectually bankrupt comment?). So when he gets as good as he gives, he gets upset and complains that it’s everyone else who attacks him, because, hey! he posts an unpopular viewpoint.
Wrong. It’s the way he says it. Not what he says. I’ve had real life conversations with him- we didn’t agree on a lot but we had a great conversation. In real life he’s a sweetheart. So why he has to be one way online and another offline is a mystery.
“benson, your feelings towards historic preservation remind me of my feelings about ice hockey. I just don’t get it.”
You have to keep your eye on the puck.
What do you mean by “Amen Corner”?
Minard;
If this blog were solely about preservation, you would be spot on. However, please note that Mr. B. fashions this blog to be about Brooklyn (see the tagline above “Brooklyn Inside and Out”). He talks about new developments, Brooklyn politics, crime and even the restaurant scene.
I like Brooklyn, in all its aspects. Hence I read this blog, and comment where I will.
In sum, your post is not relevant, except to show that there are a good number of people on this site who want to turn it into an amen corner. Rob’s point above about diversity is dead on.
benson, your feelings towards historic preservation remind me of my feelings about ice hockey. I just don’t get it. I don’t think it’s interseting or enjoyable. I’m missing the ice hockey gene. However I fully accept that a lot of people get a lot of pleasure out of it. Even though to me it seems kind of violent and boring at the same time.
However, in my case, I have never felt any desire to visit ice hockey blogs.
