Oh man... oh man... Where to start...

First I live right in Williamsburg on Wythe right by the L... and some of what was said is true (particularly the Sea and PlanEAT thai comments), but this article really got on my nerves.

I love Brooklyn people who refer to other Brooklyn people as "outer borough" or "bridge and tunnel". Do you people even know what that means? "BRIDGE AND TUNNEL" Surprise. THE L TRAIN goes under water.

Also, I hate the superior "Well I lived in Williamsburg before when it was cool." Want a medal? Do you have this very weird inferiority complex where you have to rationalize your hyper coolness by saying that? There's an LCD Soundsystem song that fits this attitude perfectly.

Finally, I absolutely love the hypocritical ending of taking a car back home after spending the night out there where 2 paragraphs ago you critique the same behavior. Guess what? Taxies don't run on magical fuel that doesn't produce smog, congestion etc. They run on the same fuel as the other cars.

God, please... go and take that smugness back to Ohio.
