WWYD?

So we've got "Who Gives A Shit?" and ABC News has "What Would You Do." Basically, they hire actors, make sure some scary/sad/freaky shit goes down like send a child predator into a playground or have some creepy dude drug a chick's drink, and they keep the cameras rolling as billions of disinterested Americans do absolutely nothing.

Last week, these WWYD peeps showed their ass up to Ozzie's to conduct a "What Would You Do" experiment with a bitchy mom yelling at her nanny and then the bitchy mom's kid, bitchy daughter. The mom was being abusive and acting like a cunt rag, and surprise surprise, the liberal, Food Coop workin, organic food eatin Park Slopers spoke up! Then they switched gears and the little kid started acting like a ho bag to the nanny, and yet again, Park Slope came to the rescue.

So, WHAT WOULD YOU DO???

Is Methodist's Labor & Delivery Unit Way More Fucked Up Than Other Hospitals'?

K, so remember when we talked about the fact that all the BK mamas are defecting to go birth their tiny terrors on the the Isle du Manhattan? You told us your Methodist horror stories here.

Not too long after, we got an anonymous email from a reader who calls herself "Rogue Nurse," an R.N. at Methodist in the Labor & Delivery Unit, about the c-section sitch happening there.  The tl;dr version of it is, in this nurse's opinion, that the entire operation is fucked (in Park Slope.  Yep.).  Clickity-click for the full dispatch:

I've Seen Fire And I've Seen Rain: Goodbye Smartmom

Double Bitchburger with Cheez (DBBWC) got some VERY sad news yesterday at FIPS HQ...and by sad, I actually mean: SO NOT SAD AT ALL! Smartmom got canned by The Ridonkulous Paper in the borough of Brook! (RPITBOB).

Even Double Bitchburger with Cheez's husband Phish-a-lishy (PAL) was jumping up and down. And their beloved pooch, Hawtest Basset on the Motherfucking Planet (HBOTMP) took a dump on the living room floor...I think that was his way of saying: we are all in this together Double Bitchburger With Cheez and Phish-a-Lishy.

It's not that DBBWC, PAL or even HBOTMP wanted Smartmom to actually get canned (well, except in DBBWC's case mebbe), but it's that this really represents an end of an era for the Neighborhood That Recycles So Fucking Much (TNTRSFM). THE NEIGHBORHOOD THAT RECYCLES SO FUCKING MUCH IS CHANGED NOW AND FOREVER.

Where, Oh Where, Are Park Slope's Buff Do-Gooders?

Hey, we want in on this action!  We've got the autistic kids but not the hotty models? Yes, per Gothamist, 150 of the city's finest are paddling around Manhattan to benefit eight different autism organizations. Haul your cupcake-bedazzled bellies and big butts over to the promenade NOW for a gander.

BLINGED in Park Slope: 11215 Yourself

Just in case your Food Coop tee isn't enough of a broadcast to the outside world that you live in The Slope and you've like, lost your Neighborhoodie or something (O HAI 2007 how u doin), one Esty seller's got your number.  (Okay, my own puns are officially making me nauseated.)

Zip code necklaces.  Because everyone knows how we do in the 11215/11217.  And if they don't, they better learn.

Thoughts, gang?
