“……stuy kids always come across as disgusting yuppie trash anyway. there’s been a few books written by people who went there, the most recent being the stuy journals or something by four little yuppie rich ho’s who kept a journal for 2 years and passed it around. yeah i read it. im intellectually bulimic.

Damn the above is so wrong its crazy. Stuy has been for ages and even now heavily populated by poor, immigrant and striving middle class kids. There’s always been a handful of well-off kids, its NYC after all, but the reason the school is like 75% Asian and such is because its always been filled to the brim with crazy overachieving – my whole family depends on my future success – not-rich kids.
Smart, rich, “yuppie trash” kids can avoid being surrounded by smart poor kids and still get an excellent education by attending any of the city’s exclusive and expensive private schools.
Stuy Class of 86.
I use a light. It clips onto my pocket or bag… red and flashy. Don’t have a headlight, though. Probably should get one of those.
Wait a mo, that might just be a reflector.
I can’t beleive that picture was taken in NYC. A cyclist riding at night actaully having a light on her bike?
proves its either not here, or its been photoshopped.
denton, ill tap that is NOT african american slang :-/ and there is no such THING as “african-american” slang anymore when it comes to anyone under 50. get a grip. stuy kids always come across as disgusting yuppie trash anyway. there’s been a few books written by people who went there, the most recent being the stuy journals or something by four little yuppie rich ho’s who kept a journal for 2 years and passed it around. yeah i read it. im intellectually bulimic.

Umm… There’s also probably cars parked *behind the camera* — thus the bicycle is EXACTLY where it should be.

Said the man with seven cars.
dibs, I hear ya…
Cyclist has light and helmet, approaching red light to perhaps make left turn.
I don’t mind Stuy kidz having sex, I mind them appropriating African American slang (I’d tap that) when there’s something like 15 Black kids in the whole school. Watch out they don’t get tapped themselves on the way home.
that cyclist doesnt bother me. it looks like he knows how to actually ride the streets of nyc. it’s the flip flop sallies on joy rides riding the street that are bothersome.
