Your not to picky. Hating "The Cure" is a deal breaker for me.

BIG UPS to my homie Jeremy Scahill, nominated in the Best Documentary Feature category for "Dirty Wars".

I have no problem with bush. Or picking lady pubes from between my teeth.

I used to confuse Amy Adams and Ilsa Fisher.

"I thought only stoners listened to waves."

I hear you. People should show a little maturity and carry their own trees. Mooching is never a good look.

I was not associated with the venue. It was wholly a Todd Patrick operation. Great spot, weed friendly, had some great times there. It got shut down after the Smith Westerns trashed the place. Apparently it wasn't up to "code" according to the NYC Dept. of Buildings.

I'd honestly like to hear her take on the separation of men & women on buses that are used by the Satmar community in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The same community that had bike lanes removed from public streets because they promoted "immodesty". The harassment my friends experience in south Williamsburg during the…

A lot of "all ages" shows, I assume?

We used to have a diy venue in Bushwick called Market Hotel. * sup Todd P *

The consensus on the thread seems to be that the Lucas films were his lowest point. I would tend to agree.

I would say two groups of people.

Speaking of demystifying, this was the Brooklyn I knew I'm my teens. We lived near the Interboro Parkway (Jackie Robinson Parkway) as it was known then. We'd hop on it and drive it to the terminus around Broadway Junction and cruise down Broadway under the J/Z train lines on our way to Bushwick.

This.

Native New Yorker here, born and raised. I grew up in a working class latino family in central Queens. I know Bushwick very well, since the mid nineties, when my friends would drive there to cop weed. *Those were the days*

Best thing about the first episode last night.

Yeah, I can understand your situation. It's not like your living in Salt Lake City, but it can feel like only being a few steps removed from that. On the flip side, I have had negative experiences being around people who share my cultural/ethnic background, like when I spent a few months in South Florida surrounded by…

I hear you. In terms of my gf, obviously I wish her life experiences were different and she was more enlightened when it comes to understanding what I go through. As to why I'm willing to overlook something like this, well the relationship is beneficial and convenient for me. I hate to sound like it's all about a…

Just to be a bit more clear. As I told someone else, she doesn't introduce me to people as her latino bf, thankfully. It's more like she'll say in conversation that "my latino bf..." or mention that her bf is latino etc., that kind of thing. I don't get the impression that I'm her token latino bf but I also know she…

Yeah me to. I don't mind my ethnicity being a factor in why she is attracted to me, I just hope it's subconscious. I realize that people are socialized by their environment and the media and that this effects what they find appealing (I credit being enamored with Jennifer Connelly in "Labyrinth" during my childhood,…
