Not sure where all the Park Slope Hand Job Massage Parlors, are, but good news!: if you you're looking for one, just head on over to Henry Street in Brooklyn Heights.

Who's Down For A Smartmom v. Amy Sohn Jello Wrestling Match?

Glad you said it first, Gothamist, because truth be told, we had the same reaction you did upon reading Only the Blog Knows Brooklyn's review of Amy Sohn's Prospect Park West.

This line, in particular, gave us quite a chuckle:

"Is [the book] truthful? The book is filled with cliches about the Bugaboo culture in Park Slope and the parents that live there. And you know what they say about cliches...

In my Smartmom columns, I have written about just about everything Sohn covers in the novel..."

Oh, snap! Man, why did you even b-o-t-h-e-r, Amy? It's ALL been covered already!

Anyway.

Rather than bore you with our querulous take on the matter, I thought the whole thing could easily be summed up with a few choice lines from one of my favorite movies: Heathers.

Veronica Sawyer: Don't talk to me like that, ok.

Heather Duke: Jealous much??

Veronica Sawyer: Why can't you just be a friend? Why do you have to be such a mega-bitch?

Heather Duke: Cuz I can be....

Brooklyn = Heaven On Earth?

As confirmed by Google Maps street view (and Buzzfeed AND the NY Times A-N-D Led Zeppelin): there is, in fact, a stairway to heaven. And it's, apparently, fully accessible from Caroll Gardens.

Good to know.

Uhm, I kinda think NY Mag should have contacted ME for this article since we made $1000 at our 2008 stoop sale, but whatevs (by the way, it was ALL about merchandising and making shit look good).

Here are their tips on how to unload all your crap to unsuspecting passers by.

Heroin Addicted Hobos Coming to Park Slope!!

Ok, so the heroin addicted hobos ARE in Williamsburg right now....but as we ALL know, the G train now goes from Williamsburg straight into Park Slope! You do the math, bitches. That obviously means that heroin addicted hobos are going to be arriving on our leafy, stroller strewn streets in 3...2...(don't say we didn't warn you).
