Speaking as someone who has seen many “mom and pop” businesses pushed out of north Brooklyn due to gentrification, you really have to admire this brave bodega’s brutally honest— if misspelled— attempt to reach out to all market demographics.

P.S.: This post goes out to my buddy Bucky Turko over at Animal New York for at long last getting due “attention” from the New York Post. You know you’re doing something right when Newscorp’s happy foot soldiers troll your blog for news leads!

(Or: A Little Something For The Ladies & My Gay Friends)

The above item elicited many a sophomoric giggle from yours truly this afternoon. I suppose it goes without saying I brought it to the Mister’s attention as soon as I arrived home.

Me: Check this out!
The Mister (sitting on the couch, squinting): What is that?
Me: Come over here and look.

And “look” he did.

T.M.: Oh. It’s a man dropping his pants.
Me: Yup. You can bounce a quarter off of that ass! I for one really like how it is juxtaposed with the balconized and downright totalitarian-looking piece of ass to the left.

The Mister concurred.
