everything you need to know about the Daily News' readers in one slope-centric column.

The New York Daily News recently ran a story about how the denizens of Park Slope Parents are all up in arms about the fact that nannies are liars.  Which is a fact.  Basically, anyone who tells you that they're going to enjoy caring for your children is fucking lying.  Your children are barely tolerable.  Someone who professes to derive pleasure from caring for them?  That's someone with a moral compass that points...uh...what were you doing with that compass, again?

Right.

So now, Park Slope Parents has posted a 
Statement Regarding Hiring Nannies, in response to the hullaballoo/donnybrook/clusterfuck that has ensued.  That post, which is closed to comments, contains helpful tips for parents looking for a nanny, such as "Check multiple references," and "meeting them in person if possible."

Oh, that's good.  I'd never have thought to check the references of SOMEONE WHO'S GOING TO CARE FOR MY BABY.

Of course, I don't have a baby, so it's easy for me to sit here and judge what you breeders are doing.  Hire a nanny without checking references.  Give your toddler a gallon of gasoline and some matches at playtime.  Send them to go camping with a Catholic priest or a Penn State assistant coach.  What do I care?  It's your kid, right?

What you should care about, though, is that the readers of the New York Daily News are bat-shit-fucking (and I mean all the shit that a bat can make, like even if it's been eating nothing but chickpeas and fruit punch for the last year) crazy.  Here are some of the choicest quotes from the umpteenth Park Slope Nannygate Craptastrophe:
