My friend Rose and I went to look at a building that was for sale in my hood. Though it was a WAY overpriced gut job, there were two packages of bacon left on the steps. As she decided not to buy, we left the bacon for the takers. Here are some photos
I wonder if anyone walked by and said "don't mind if I do.."
If they are short with cheese, I will work with them.
If someone finds eggs and coffee around the hood we could put ourselves a nice brunch together.
Yet more evidence that Brooklyn sucks. Who the **** puts cheese and bacon on a stoop???? Only some lefty, crunchy, wanna-be dyke, trying to be socially aware while just being pretentious, would put "left-overs and snacks" out on a stoop for passers-by. Chuck it down the garbage disposal like any self-respecting American. Shit likes this makes me want to vote Republican.
dude.. go easy on the Rush Limburger, you're frothing at the mouth!
Shamelessly quoted from: ham and cheese on wry
This has been bothering me for a couple of days. While I'd rather throw Brad a beating than jump on his bandwagon, it is a bit pretentious to leave that half full bag of crappy cheese on the stoop. Books, old electronics, clothes etc. I can see, but cheese? Not really.
Next time, if you don't want it, leave it in the fridge until it turns green, then throw it away.
Pretentious? I call it a sense of (sick?) humor. Kind of like gluing a dime to the sidewalk.
Stuff on the stoop is one of my favorite things about the neighborhood. And, we may laugh and call it pretentious, but I guarantee someone took that cheese (or should I say moved it--hahahahah). Anyway, we had a stoop sale a few summers ago and put the few things we didn't sell in a box on the sidewalk. It was interesting to watch throughout the day what was taken. Finally, there were just a couple of crappy books. Then it rained on the books. The next day, even the soggy books were gone. I think it's New York's purest form of recycling.
I totally agree, been there done that, left stuff and took stuff. But, cheese? Please.
I'm wondering if it was some bizarre sociological experiment to see if people would actually help themselves to second hand cheese just because it was free.
Moved the cheese. HA HA HA HA! The comments on this post make me titter so.
