10.06 – kids rebel when they become teenagers? – no way, can’t believe it!
dingdong
10:08 – please post a video on you tube of your 2yr old walking at anywhere near the pace or distance of even the most out-of-shape adult.
Video or it didnt (doesnt) happen
10:20 = future serial killer
THE WHAT, I’m going to assume that you had a lead water main at your crib in Bed-Stuy growing up… because that would explain the brain damage. Everyone packing heat would just result in gunfights and more people dead. But since you escaped to the burbs, you wouldn’t have to worry about that–SELL OUT!
Remember: An armed society is a polite society!
10:08 makes his kids run. RUN or no dinner!
Even if 10:06 WANTED to procreate, who would fuck him?
I love to see the playground being
enjoyed by so many folks and their kids…
and I have never come across any nasty attitudes from any of the young families living in this neighborhood… but then again I don’t walk around harboring ill- will towards them either.
My family and I have enjoyed Prospect Park
for over 30 years… the park and the Park Slope and Windsor Terrace neighborhoods feel so much safer the past ten years.
( we lived in PS for 8 years and currently live in WT for the past 25 years)
The new folks, singles and families, have
added a stabilizing influence to both neighborhoods.
Pedestrian traffic would be made worse by eliminating 50% of the strollers that clog sidewalks, store doorways and aisles, etc.? That’s a dubious argument. As for whether two year olds can walk ten blocks, or walk faster than a snails pace, if yours can’t it’s because you assumed they couldn’t.
