Today the Observer runs a story on the impending arrival of Whole Foods and its possible threat to the Park Slope Food Coop. “Whole Foods is more of an ideological challenge to the Park Slope Food Coop, the headquarters of arch-Park Slope living, than it is a threat to business,” states the article, which points out the the Coop has a higher profit margin than Whole Foods. Writer and Park Slope resident Amy Sohn vowed not to make the switch from the Coop to Whole Foods, but hoped the Coop members “who wind up on the blacklist” would. She says the people who will enjoy the Whole Foods most “Want to replicate their sort of Mall of America experience in New York City, so they love that you can have a Whole Foods in Brooklyn.” Like it or not, the site will be built: the article reveals an Austin-based construction company will begin work 2011 and will open the store late 2012.

Trader Joe’s is a joke. Most of the food there is made by the exact same manufacturers as food found in your local Key Food or Associated, but it’s packaged differently for TJ’s and priced higher.
So many are fooled.
i think i am no longer the biggest troll on here.
“Trader Joes on Court rules.
And I don’t recall anyone in that neighborhood bitching about them prior to their opening.”
Indeed. This difference says alot about some elements of the PS co-op crowd…
“Yes, snarkitect, you win!”
I’d like my winnings in a year’s supply of groceries from Whole Foods.
Trader Joes on Court rules.
And I don’t recall anyone in that neighborhood bitching about them prior to their opening.
Not riled up, just quite amused by half-witted childish behavior coming from someone who has obvious issues about his own sexuality.
I’m sure I’ll spot you with the limp wrist, the lisp and the swinging hips, Clyde.
Or is it really ClydeTolson?”

Yes, snarkitect, you win!
Now everyone: please get back to work.
OK, for you smart people who insist on counting letters so carefully… this involves the transitive property.
BrownstonerButtBoy = Daveinbedstuy = Saved Be Nudity
(or “Bad Untidy Eves” or “Beaded Ivy Nuts” or many others)
Amusing how quickly DIBS started answering to BrownstonerButtBoy. Very easily riled up.
WAIT! I just got it.
He was anagraming your login daveinbedstuy and he got Bad Untidy Eves
But yet he wrote “BrownstonerButtBoy = Bad Untidy Eves”.
Confusion
I give up. Plus, I have real work to do besides word play and bitching about supermarkets.
