In the Slope, We Train 'Em Young [INFINITE REGRESSIONS]

Park Slope, Brooklyn, New York: The only place in America where even the strollers have strollers.

Thanks But No Thanks, LA Dodgers

Way back in 1958, Dodgers owner Walter O’Malley packed up dem beloved borough baseball bums for the bright lights and sunshine of California, leaving Brooklyn’s entire professional sports fan base devastated. Now those LA-holes want to pay tribute to the team that used to play up the street at Ebbets Field by donning special uniforms during 6 games this upcoming baseball season.

To that we here at FIPS, say hell to the n-o.

Look, if you’re going to decimate an entire professional team’s local support system and economy, showing off some old school duds 53 years later that you're probably going to make bank off of isn’t going to erase the hard feelings of yore. Sure many of the old Dodger faithful ain’t
around anymore to gripe, but that’s not the issue. If you haven’t noticed, we already pay tribute to our Brooklyn baseball legacy with our beloved Coney Island ‘clones. And if you’ve ever been to CitiField,
you’d know that the Mets are just keeping shit warm for the inevitable return of Jackie Robinson and Pee Wee Reese.

If you folks in LA really want to keep giving props to Brooklyn, just keep stealing that BK style. We hear flannel shirts and trucker hats are all the rage in Los Feliz and Echo Park.That’s straight up Billyburg! But if you’re going to douche it up in those old school Dodger unis at least a few times this summer, when it happens, can you at least make it against the Mets so we can come out and give you all the finger?

[AYFKMWTS] Eating Dog Food For 30 Days?

Remember that dude from Super Size Me who ate Mcdonald's non-stop for 30 days? And remember how totally fucking disgusting you found that concept?

Right, well try this one on for size: these two Brooklyn chicks are going to eat human-grade dog food exclusively for 30 days.

"On March 1st, Hanna Mandelbaum and Alison Wiener, owners of Evermore Pet Food, Inc., will put their mouths where their money is... their dog food. Dubbing the campaign Evermore Me—a tongue-in-cheek reference to the 2004 hit film Super Size Me—the two will subsist exclusively for one month on their human-grade, gently cooked dog formulas and recipes made only from the whole-food ingredients in their food."

I gotta say: as vile as this experiment sounds, it *does* kinda make me curious about their dog food. Cause if these ladiez are seriously just gonna eat their own dog food for a solid month, then either: the shit's gotta be pretty decent; OR they gotta be totally desperate for some attensh.

In either case, here my ass is writin about it so, yeah: they won.
