Your sense of self-importance is all the more hilarious considering you’re the village idiot.”
Well.. You replied. I must have some importance….
“Why not just admit you love the attention and the “fame” it brings?”
No it”s this MM: Someday this war is gonna end… This is the main reason why. I know very soon all the crap is going to end. And you are the one losing sleep over me, not the other way around.
” I don’t think there is anything wrong with being smart and articulate.”
Like the Ivy League graduates who has plunged America into the Abyss? Like Bush, Obama and the rest of the “Educated Idiot Asshead” crowd?
Now this is the last time I will touch this subject and MM you are on mute.
Too bad, what. I’m not fond of you either, and I’m not going anywhere. You come on here every day and tell Jon and everyone else how much you hate them, and how you wish them harm, and how this blog contributes to a great class and race war. In spite of how “harmful” this blog is, you come back day after day, and if anything, you increase Jon’s readership, his advertisers, and his bottom line. Great way to defeat the enemy. Why not just admit you love the attention and the “fame” it brings? Pitiful.
I did not say anything here that was not factual, and I defy you to prove otherwise. Biff may have asked you the question, but others answered as well, as this is a public forum where anyone is free to join in. If you don’t like my writing style, tough luck. They won’t be handing you a Pulitzer anytime soon either. I happen to think you are a lot smarter than you try to make us think you are, and it slips through, even in your writing, so spare me the petty insults, and fake posturing. The difference between you and me is that I don’t think there is anything wrong with being smart and articulate. Get with the age of Obama. This isn’t 1975, and you aren’t Huggy Bear.
Montrose Morris let me ask you a question. Did you finger yourself when you type? Do you really thing you are that smart? Do I have to read that Faux-Memory crap you just typed? ‘Posted by: Montrose Morris at February 6, 2009 5:13 PM’. Most of that paragraph is factually incorrect! Biff asked me the question not you and being MM you need to deliver a thesis and “look smart”.
“Actually, I DO know what your problem with me is. You can’t deal with intelligent black women ”
Who in the hell said you was one??????!!!! Intelligent people don’t go around and telling the world they’re intelligent , they do things to make this world better!
You spent 10 mins typing something that was INCORRECT!!! I put on blast and now you are upset!
MM I hope you go away (Seriously) because I can’t stand you. You do not have to ever reply to anything I write….
Sorry mopar, I was the bespectacled geeky “smart girl” type, and I never was a druggie, just wasn’t interested. So no youthful tales to tell there. I graduated high school in ’73, so I’m about as old as the hills.
C’hiller, I remember the pets in McCrory’s, as well as the entrance to the store from the Schermerhorn A stop. My mom and I, as well as other friends and I, including the Sainted Tenant, used to go to the restaurant in A&S for lunch during shopping trips. They had great food, and it was a treat to go there. We also used to go to the lunch counter at Woolworth’s, and for special occasions, Junior’s. For some reason, it was so cool that they had pickles and coleslaw for free on the tables, and the cheese cake has been a must have for a long time.
What, I don’t know what your problem with me is, but back the f@%k up, and leave me alone. We were all having a decent reminiscence about a time and place that I have just as much right to think back on as you do. If you don’t like what I say, skip over it, as I do 99% of your endless rants.
Actually, I DO know what your problem with me is. You can’t deal with intelligent black women who are not impressed with your badass, fake mack daddy posing. It pisses you off no end that I get along with most people here, yes, those yuppy white people, and even garner their respect and friendship. I’ve never born you any ill will, and do not join in the general call for your head on a stick. For my pains, you have called me a sellout, an Uncle Tom, a pompous elitist black asshat, and a few other things not worth repeating, especially once you found out I was a woman.
Well, you better get over it, take your meds, or learn to deal, because I’m not going anywhere. If that fact turns you, as per usual, into a gibbering, foaming, bad grammar laden, Ebonics spouting, homophobic misogynist fool who can’t deal with someone who is totally not impressed or intimidated by your faux blackitude, then so be it, brother man. Bring it on. You have no idea who you are messing with.
“What, I don’t often hear about what downtown Brooklyn was in the ’70s (type of stores, people, etc.) What do you remember about it?”
Well Biff I hated A&S because my mom would buy my school clothes there (Yeah I went to school). I was cool walking “Downtown” and playing “Ping Pong” in A&S off the Atari demos.
“Danceteria, Peppermint Lounge, Ritz, Lone Star, CBGB, Mudd Club, TR3, and a few small bars that allowed it.”
Wow Danceteria! I remembered The Garage and ZanZerbar (Hope the spelling is right LOL) but I was too much of a “B-Boy” and “Hip-Hopper” to be caught dead in those places.
“Yeah, the REAL 42nd, before it became Disneyworld [effing] north.”
I remember in 1993 the last Game room was closed on Broadway Bet. 42 and 43. It was a end of a era. That’s why I hate the Retard Giuliani!!!!
This is a EPIC FAIL!!! FAKE-ASS NEW YORK POSER ALERT!!!!!!! Montrose Morris please do me a big favor. Please stay out of my conversations because Grown folks are talking..
***Please disregard the nonsense Montrose Morris typed about New York****
“My favorite hang-out in the mid to late ’70’s, though was The Rollerdome on Empire Blvd. Fabulous disco music, slick wooden floor and we all had huge hair and even bigger platform shoes……that goes for the guys and girls. So fun.”
I almost lost my life there on numerous occasions LOL! I remember one time somebody was shooting out the window from Eberts Field (true story)! You see a flash of light then BAM you hear the Gunshot. I said “O well it”s time to go”
” I’ve read posters here say that they came from as far away as Canarsie – pre Kings Plaza – to shop there.”
But man I loved going to Kings Plaza back in the days but, you better be outta there by sundown. Old New York Thang LMMFAO!
McCrory’s! That’s the other store I couldn’t remember that had sewing stuff. Thank you MM! They also had a little pet store area for hamsters, birds and the like, I think. Martin’s was another – a little more upscale [meaning we didn’t shop there as much – they had a hair salon – fancy!
I think Crazy Eddie tried to flee the country when he lost his mind for real, as I recall. It was pretty dramatic.
Montague Street had a women’s department store – Nettie’s – where the Banana Republic is now. [This was a Burger King at one point after Nettie’s and people rallied to demonstrate against it, but lost the battle.] Nettie’s sold dresses and gloves and women’s undergarments – think girdles!
One nice/sweet thing, was that Brooklyn Union Gas company used to have a big building on Montague Street, and every Easter they would have chicks hatching in incubators in the windows. There was a line to look at them in the various stages, and a little ‘pond’ set up for the bigger ones to take birdy baths. Cuteness!
Myrtle used to run all the way down to Jay Street – I visited Myrtle for reasons discussed earlier with What!
A & S was pretty nice, MM is right – when it became Macy’s this was not a good thing. They had a nice restaurant, and when my mom was feeling flush, she would take one of us kids with her to shop and have lunch. Everyone shopped on Fulton street, I’ve read posters here say that they came from as far away as Canarsie – pre Kings Plaza – to shop there.

Atari? This had to be 1977. What, were you in high school? Montrose? I was in 7th grade.
“What, I don’t often hear about what downtown Brooklyn was in the ’70s (type of stores, people, etc.) What do you remember about it?”
Well Biff I hated A&S because my mom would buy my school clothes there (Yeah I went to school). I was cool walking “Downtown” and playing “Ping Pong” in A&S off the Atari demos.
