Coming Soon To A Park Slope Corner Near You: SNOW FURNITURE

Spotted this weekend by a FIPS reader on Union Street.

Perhaps when the Park Slope Food Coop walkers get tired, they can go take a 10 minute break on the snofa?

Raise Your Hand If You Are Over This Fucking Snow?

CAUSE I AM SO FUCKING OVER THIS SNOW. LIKE SOOOOOOOOO.

Is it snowing again out right now? Prolly! I won't even look out my window though, cause I don't wanna know.

Ok, in an effort to not poke my own eyeballs out with a rusty nail, I've decided to focus on some of the positives. My glass is so fucking half full, ppl.

  • Look at all of these beautiful pics of the snow! Snow is pretty! Before it turns black, of course...black like my heart (via @ataferner).
  • Help this kind-hearted snow dude find the cute snow girl so that they can go drink snow beers! Barf! I mean yay! (craigslist).
  • Ok Park Slope Food Coop...you win. I kind of like you a *leetle* bit after seeing the photo above (via Gothamist).
  • That lil ole blizzard from December...that cost us all at least $68 millies (NY Times) (and ok, that one is a negative...had to slip it in).
  • Aw, doesn't this totally remind you of Daryl Hannah and your long lost youth and blah, blah, blah? Yeah, me too: Snow Mermaid on 6th Ave and 1st Street (via Park Slope Lens).

Dear Al Gore,

Help!

Love,

Entitled Neighbor Watch: Don't Block The Snow Plow

BREAKING: your sorry ass if you don't stop blocking snow plows while blithely digging out your Mercedes. @JudyGoldberg was about to make a citizen's arrest but her kid talked her down. See, the rugrats round here are good for something.

More from Judy:

My son and i were standing on the corner of PPW and third street Marveling at how three snow plows were coordinating their efforts. The first was on the park side shoveling snow down from the side to the middle, the second was going down the middle and the third was bringing up the rear and pushing snow to the other side. It was actually, balletic. Except when the 3rd snow blow got to the corner a Park Slope Swell was digging her Mercedes SUV out and refused to budge given the snow plow two options—veer off it's course to let her get her way or stop and to get her two move. The problem with the 2nd option was that the snow plow was straddling 3rd street so all the traffic had to come to a grinding halt. The snow plow driver honked, the cars honked and the woman dug her feels in Yelling I'm not moving I've got to get my car out. What was even crazier was that the snow plow's 3 prong effort had made it so that nobody was getting a mountain of snow in either direction, so her car wasn't going to be buried. Finally the snowplow driver got out. And clearly saw this woman wasn't going to give in show after exchanging words she got in and drove her plow around. This all took about 10 minutes and we learned a little bit about snow clearing and lot about how the Mercedes SUV is more than just a status symbol its a license to bring the entire snow removal effort to a halt.

Anyway, I'm going sledding now. And snowballing.

Behave yourselves and please don't be a douchebag to your neighbors or hardworking road crews today!
