My 'Hood

It's weird when little Bensonhurst gets showcased for the audience of TimeOut. It's simply not their demographic's scene. I suppose people do like to hang out next to cemeteries, eclectic mixes of non-English speaking stores and restaurants, the lack of transportation to get around, garbage on the side of streets, rawdy teenagers.....

Okay, I lie. It's my pitiful attempt to push away a new crowd of twenty-somethings from moving in on my neighborhood. Things are still cheap and affordable here, down to the 50 cent per pound laundry service. I love all those things, except for those rawdy teenagers- they make me feel old. (TimeOut)
