A reader just tipped us off to the fact that the sale of 17 Prospect Park West, better known as the former home of actors Jennifer Connelly and Paul Bettany, has now closed. And it looks like the screen stars almost got their full asking price: Public records show that the 5,200-square-foot limestone mansion closed for $8,450,000 on November 17. Highest price ever for Park Slope, right?

Dave,
You dominate every thread. That’s my point.
And not only are your comments oftentimes very harsh, but are more often than not, nonsense. Fine every once in a while, but every single day…?!
I’d like to hope a comment or two of mine was heard by someone, as I’ve read and learned some really great things from others…Denton, benson, wasder, Montrose, Polemicist, among others…
Can’t say I’ve learned much from you Dave, except how best to pick up an asian prostitute from craigslist.
“You all have in the past and continue to use this website as your own personal chatroom”
As you have used it as a dating pool!
“You all sometimes don’t even give a thread a chance of having a real discussion.”
Well, why don’t YOU give it a chance. Why don’t you opine on it and see where it goes. Instead of commenting on the comments, why not post about the thread.
11217…Shall we rewind to yesterday’s ‘Recover Sooner Than Later?’ Thread?
Maybe you should count how many assinine posts were yours and how many were by others.
At least some of our posts are entertaining and not displaying immaturity and a disregard for humans.
“You are a real piece of work. I’ve seen at least 3 or 4 people agree with me in this thread and the other in the last few minutes alone, but you continue to act like a child.”
How many disagreed with you yesterday??????
“So sad you can’t just take it to heart and agree that you have been slightly annoying.”
Based on your track record from yesterday, You are slightly annoying indeed, 11217!
Yes, that was one of the longest threads we had and it was dominated by 11217. it also seemed like one of the most mean spirited as well.
z/THL, I respect you both and you’ve made the point in a very congenial manner. I’m not going away but will try to reign it in and stay on topic; at least until it seems the interest is gone or if others get off topic. Maybe an off-topic forum thread like we had last week is a good idea. Although I still hope 11217 jumps ship.
“Perfect example of you sad attempt to bully, Biff.”
11217, you think that was bullying because I suggested you leave when you said you wanted to? Seriously, calm down, dude. And the 3 or 4 people who agree with you pales in comparison to the number who expressed negativity towards you in that 220 post thread yesterday.
THL,
See…and I always really enjoyed Snark’s comments! A lot.
And I haven’t even noticed he was gone, cause who wants to go through and find out with having to wade through 150 comments by Biff, Dave and BRG!
Not that anyone cares, but I’m going to be the next to jump ship if this doesn’t get cleaned up, cause I think the quality of the blog is suffering due to a few people.
Perfect example of you sad attempt to bully, Biff.
You are a real piece of work. I’ve seen at least 3 or 4 people agree with me in this thread and the other in the last few minutes alone, but you continue to act like a child.
So sad you can’t just take it to heart and agree that you have been slightly annoying.
I engage in off-topic banter on occasion so, by no means am I coming with guns drawn. I just think that you’re being a bit selfish. For example…

There once was a poster named Snark
On a blog that some say jumped that shark
Now the ranting’s grown boring
This roaring breeds snoring
So he vanished off into the dark

“You two are really becoming sad and pathetic how you think you can bully the rest of the people on here.”
Bully people? If anyone’s bullied by us, they really must have a problem. As you’ve said yourself, 11217, it’s a blog. Relax.
“I’ve become barely interested in most of what you all have to say as the days go on”
So? Are we supposed to care?
“and while it will be a real shame to cut myself off from coming here so regularly, I do think it’s getting to be about that time.”
Sayonara. Have a great life. Oh yeah you will, because you’re young, handsome and own your own home.
Totally agree, 11217. When I start to see a thread of mostly Biff, BRG, DIBS and few others, I know I’m basically crashing a public IM session that has nothing to do with the post. It’s deadly dull. Mr. B, please make them play privately.
