Park Slope Stroller Nazi Story Getting a Little Stale
We’re not exactly sure why this was a front-page article the the NY Times Sunday Real Estate section—seems more like City section material to us—but, there it was, another article making light of the number of strollers (and implicit bourgeois existence of their pushers) in Park Slope.

We’re not exactly sure why this was a front-page article the the NY Times Sunday Real Estate section—seems more like City section material to us—but, there it was, another article making light of the number of strollers (and implicit bourgeois existence of their pushers) in Park Slope. The fact that there are a lot of young families (some of whose matriarchs aren’t averse to a little public nursing) in Park Slope just ain’t news anymore, so let’s just settle the fight for the soul of the slope once and for all in the hopes that another article never has to be written on the subject. In the words of The Times article, is Park Slope “Hipster Hell” or “Parent Heaven”? Update: As of 4:30 today, there were 216 votes for Parent Heaven and 158 votes for Hipster Hell.

can someone please define a hipster for me?
HIPSTER = ????????
yea Chelsea A great place to pick up girls only if you like them with a slight bulge in their pants. But back to the topic, That Ozzies coffeeshop is the most disgusting place.
6:07pm,
yes, i agree. show me one brooklyn spot where a single dude can find some sweet young fine ass? it doesn’t exist.
it’s a given fact, single men and women prefer manhattan far over brooklyn because the dating scene in brooklyn is horrifc.
manhattan has the meat packing district, soho, tribeca, the lower east side, chelsea, gramercy and the upper east side. all of which are great places to hook up. brooklyn has nothing. park slope is even worse. the closest thing to manhattan in terms of social life is williamsburg and forte green;though neither are great. everything else is just horrible.
brooklyn is great for families but nothing else. perhaps i’ll move there in ten years, but for now i have to sow my royal oats!
Actually I love living in park slope as a parent. It is really just like the East Village ten years ago for me, because that’s where I used to live. All the people I knew either all now live in Brooklyn, or left NY, so there’s no other neighborhood where I can relate to former East Villagers that I knew.
I get plenty of support from the other parents and we go out to restaurants with our babies and dogs and swing our boobs around and fling crap everywhere. It’s a hoot. We also burn money in our brownstones to make fires for our organic rice and congratulate each other for being passive agressive white democrats. It’s all really good.
That stroller that hit you the other day was mine. I laughed at you drunk with breeding power after it happened.
That broken slate sidewalk that you tripped on and broke your toe- that was mine. I’m also the one driving in front of you slowing down at every fire hydrant in case it’s a parking spot. Oh, and I took a plane the other day and let my baby crap on some guy that I knew was from Brooklyn.
My mom bought us the 2MM brownstone, and I paint landscapes part time. My husband is an architect. We used to belong to the coop and run a theater in our spare time, but now we just shop at Union Market and go upstate on weekends. I’m sure that I could go on an on about me, but I’d rather hear you tell me more about what you hate because I’m sure it describes me.
i’m gay and i could bag a woman in park slope.
you are doin something wrong, my friend…
Being Chinese, I can’t believe I got the math wrong! Back to my audio video club blog!
THERE ARE NO HOT WOMEN IN PARK SLOPE. PERIOD. ALL THE WOMEN ARE HOMELY, FAT AND BORING.
I’M A YOUNG SINGLE MALE (HORNY AS A RABBIT) AND I HAVE TO GO TO MANHATTAN TO GET LAID. WHEN IT COMES TO WOMEN, BROOKLYN IS WHACK!
sorry….60% white…
and my figures are probably a bit off, but you get the idea…
“but I’ll take that over some baby that takes a bizarrely rancid smelling dump in a restaurant while I’m trying to enjoy my soup. And then of course there’s the mother who takes her sweeeet time get the malodorous kid beyond nose’s reach. ”
i bet this has never happened to you.
Yes, it’s happened to me, but guess what? Turns out it was the soup!
