• Commented on Arrested Pug Owner May Be Fired Over Alleged Anti-Semitism
  Fact: the only reason Felixthecat2 even cares about this is because a dog is tangentially involved. As such, he will vociferously defend the woman, regardless of what she may or may not have said....
• Commented on Smart Guy Gets Rounded Up in Late Night Subway Sting
  Jesus, what a whiny little bitch. I say good. He was likely shitfaced drunk and passed out (reading between the lines, his own blog pretty much agrees), and he deserved to be treated like a drunk. You want to spread...
• Commented on Arrested Pug Owner May Be Fired Over Alleged Anti-Semitism
  Interesting. How much of their audience happens to be Jewish, you think? Bet that factors into the CEO's irritation....
• Commented on CTA Introduces Newest Hybrid Buses
  Probably more of the same, yes. Continuing the 4000 series buses that arrived last year....
• Commented on Schaumburg Giving Red Light Camera The Boot
  Assuming a lack of tampering (no shortening of yellows, and at least a .5 second threshold on red), I am all for red light cameras. Unfortunately, the temptation to use them as revenue generators is too strong....
• Commented on Prospect Park Suffers From July 4 Trash Hangover
  The big issue is that no one cleans up or otherwise monitors the parks on the weekends. Oddly enough (not), that is when people use the parks. It seems that a trash collection on Sunday morning, particularly on a long...
• Commented on Rep. Peter King Blasts Coverage Of "Pedophile" Michael Jackson
  While I agree with his general sentiment about there being more important things to talk about.... (aside) Yesterday, CNN was showing extensive coverage of the non-news taking place surrounding Michael Jackson...meanwhile, the news ticker at the bottom was ticking off...
• Commented on Palin Couldn't Go The Hillary Clinton Route
  When she wants to explain herself further she will. Sorry, no. She NEEDS to explain herself, and she needed to do it a few days ago. Oh, not to me. I don't give a damn. But she NEEDS to explain...
• Commented on Violent Weekend Concludes
  I can see an advantage for handgun owners/carriers in the below situations: 1. Stumbling across a crime in progress against a third party (comes from the frontier desire to play sheriff). 2. Home invasion. Uh...that's all I got....
• Commented on Two-Alarm Fire On Wythe Avenue In Williamsburg
  I saw that big cloud of smoke from S. 11th and was wondering what it was! No one with me seemed concerned......
• Commented on Gwyneth Hates NY, SJP Loves Brooklyn
  Another myth is so many structure in Europe are old. Not true. So may of the charming places I've seen were in fact rebuilt after a war, or a GREAT FIRE of xxxx, flattened everything. Truth. Many people rave about...
• Commented on Witness: Pug Owner Was Jew-Bashing During Subway Arrest
  WTF my comment got messed up. 2. Jews...
• Commented on Witness: Pug Owner Was Jew-Bashing During Subway Arrest
  This thread is amazing. Let me sum up the arguments thus far. 1. Dogs > people 2. Jews 3. Dogs > Jews 4. Handcuffs, day and night 5. Jew hero cop...
• Commented on Yesterday's LaGuardia Birdstrike Anticlimactic, Thankfully
  Anything big/strong enough to be effective against a bird strike at 200mph would block airflow to the engines....

• Commented on At Last A Warm Day
  I loved these last two low-mid 80s days. I wish summer could always be like that...manageable humidity and lower 80s....
• Commented on Apocalyptic Sky Over New York Tonight
  I too was drawn outside by the strange orange light coming in my windows after the storm. I don't recall seeing such a saturation of a single color like that...it was almost like real life had been photoshopped, with some...
• Commented on Abandoned Baby's Mother A Prostitute With 6 Other Kids
  Why did she bother coming to the US if this is how she was going to live her life? You can be a degenerate with too many kids in El Salvador....

  This kind of stuff really plays right into the kind of point Cohen is trying to make....
• Commented on Michael Jackson <strike>In The Hosptial</strike> Passes Away
  Honestly, this sounds worse than I mean it, but he hasn't been relevant in years. All the good things we remember him for were AT LEAST 15 years ago. His death will probably help to preserve that legacy in a...
• Commented on Mom Forgets Baby On Metra
  Separating ourselves from the emotional connection that a baby is a human life, it is still a new addition to the parents' lives. As such, when you fall back into tasks based strictly on rote memorization, I could see how...

  Love the idea of green roofs on the setbacks...as long as they don't paint it silver or whatever the hell was proposed at one point....
• Commented on MTA Sells Brooklyn Subway Station Naming Rights To Barclays

• Commented on Transformers Screening Causes Theater Chaos
  If you ride the subway in the outer boroughs, it's more like 3-4 days. ;)...
• Commented on MTA Sells Brooklyn Subway Station Naming Rights To Barclays
  Further detail in the article indicated that the name change won't happen until the arena is built. So this is really no different than Mets/Willets Point, except that the corporate sponsor actually paid for it. I was thinking it would...
• Commented on Cyclist Charged For Allegedly Causing Damage To SUV
  Not that I'm excusing the driver, but WHY did that cyclist try to pass on the left? If I come across a car in the far left/right lane, sitting at an intersection, to me that car is turning left/right. Passing...
• Commented on Video: Hamptons Hotspot Georgica Soaks Patrons
  Ah yes. What are your CPMs these days? I will expect payment of approximately $0.01 in traffic acquisition costs relating to these 2 impressions I have given you....
