Who gives a shit: Want to know how much Barclays Season Tickets cost?

Time to price your expensive-ass season tickets to watch the Nets play basketball at Barclays Center. The VIP All Access breakdown is in!

Are you a happy couple with two children, or a set of four basketball-loving roommates? Fantastic! For only $61,600 a year, you can have season ticket passes in the coveted "red section" of the Barclays Center. See the chart below for the exact location of where you will bask in VIP closeness — wait, where’s the red section? Looks like fuchsia and then pink…but fuchsia is not on the list…I’m confused; this color-coded legend is just as shitty as the renderings of the Barclays Center.

WHO GIVES A SHIT: Where Are The Cheapest ATM's in Park Slope?

(via Ally)

I don't know about you, but $3.00 ATM fees (I'm looking at you motherfucking Bank of motherfucking America) make me want to punch a Panda.

And yeah: I knowwwww that I can go to my own damn bank and not pay any fees whatsoever, but also my own damn bank is 9 blocks away and I'm very very lazy...you do the math. As such, I end up going to ATM's all over this godforsaken nabe.

Thus far I've only managed to find two in Park Slope that charge .99 cents.

A Question For You Ladies: Facial Hair

Jerri Blank & The Flatpoint High Track Team

Ladies: Have you ever been getting your eyebrows threaded or waxed when the person hovering over you says, "Shall we go ahead and do the whole face?"

I've never bleached, plucked or waxed anything on my face besides my brows. I was not prepared for this qestion. As the lovely woman holding the thread waited for my answer, I wondered if I've been unknowingly walking around the Slope for the past few years with an unsightly amount of facial hair. Is it customary for the one shaping your brows to automatically talk you into an upgrade? Or am I completely in denial about my hairy, ape-like face? 

WHO GIVES A SHIT: Do You Think 'The Nets' Is A Stupid Name For A Basketball Team?

Cause this dude at the NY Daily News certainly does:

"I am, first of all, unaware of another name in professional sports that references an object on that sport's playing field. It would be absurd to call a football team the Endzones or a baseball squad the Outfields..."

"[The Brooklyn Nets] sounds bad, and it means nothing."

I mean, I guess he kinda has a point.

WHO GIVES A SHIT: Do You Rent Your Apt Out on AirBNB?

I was kind of blown away by this anon poster on Brick Underground who claims that they made $14k on airbnb by renting out their Murray Hill apt for $99/night. All the while he/she was traveling around the world, footloose and fancy free, drinking wine in Spain and eating gelato in Italia-n-shit.
