That makes you weak then Cobblehiller.
You don’t stand up for anything. I find those types of personalities very boring and not very evolved.
How’s that job search coming…?
Over and out.
I’m done with this blog. Party away!
Sooooooo, are house prices falling or what?!?!
“derogatory, inflammatory, insulting and anti-social at the core ”
I think you just describe me..
The What
Someday this war is gonna end
Kick 11217 ass! Get him, kill him! Yeah!
I’m a relative newcomer to the blog that hasn’t bought a place yet. I enjoy the OT and would read the blog much less if it was not there. Also like the articles about neighborhoods and architecture.
I don’t enjoy the shrillness of the price / market related comments, but I do learn from them sometimes.
11217 – you’re probably a good guy in person (and I like Park Slope!) but I find the blog persona often comes across as smug and highly strung.
11217 – I’m perfectly aware the importance comps play in real estate purchases. no need to be condescending since you were fortunate enough to be able to have purchased something.
and your comps are typically slope centric. don’t deny it.
and yes, i come on here primarily for real estate information. if you think i come on here to talk on the open thread all day, you’re sadly mistaken. I’ve been a lurker here far before i ever made a post, and due to the fact I haven’t been able to purchase anything yet, I typically don’t have much to add to the majority of the conversation.
and regardless what gets said in the open thread, very few personal attacks are initiated by the ‘usual suspects’ – can’t say the same for you….**see above**
11217, My point is proven over and over with your statements. I’m just telling you why I stopped posting in other threads. And why I like to hang out in the OT. And that people actually used to try to be friendly with you. I’ve been here awhile, I remember.
Your statements make it personal, they aren’t simply based on the topic at hand. If your statements were simply points of fact about the subject of hand, then your arguments would be sound.
However, for example: the statement of “I read brownstoner when I’m bored at work for entertainment and then hang out with my real friends after work and weekends. There’s nothing wrong with that, and it’s a little more the norm, in case you’ve forgotten.” is derogatory, inflammatory, insulting and anti-social at the core of it. You like the battle, it’s fun for you. I’m not sure why. I just prefer to avoid you.
Oooooohhh 11217 is getting his ass kicked!
Good for him!
The What (I’m a very civil person)
Someday this war is gonna end…
I am moving to OT now
Rob, I wanna join but I don’t drink 40s. Can I just brink a flask with Vodka and join the roof party or are you prejudiced to it? I do have a liter and a half of grey goose in my fridge for a while that’s just asking to be opened.
