The conversation going on outside my window right now

[All shouted, between a guy on a cherry picker, and his buddy working at the base of the street light]

"You don’t even know how to read the fucking meter, bra!"

"I know how to read the fucking meter, moron! It’s the leads that are the problem!"

"The meter’s not the problem! You don’t know what you’re fucking doing down there!"

"I said the leads are the fucking problem!"

I don't know - am I? I thought I was moving to Wburg. I don't get the finer points of your Brooklyn territorial divisions.

Wait, is this too much information? Am I gonna get stalked? This is on the internets, you know.

whether it is the wick in your bush, or the burg in your williams, you will be mine, oh yes...you will be mine. [insert maniacal cackling laugh here]

if you wanna be all specifical, bushwick begins a bit before the jefferson L stop. Morgan is east williamsburg, as the banners on the lampposts will testify. i believe all of the rest are wburg proper. so, um, yeah. i'm lame.

The other night Aaron comes in the house and says "The people across the street are going at it...I don't understand Dene but I did hear "F*cking Bitch screamed a few times." Now that's entertainment. To get the full effect of this, you have to hear the Dene language. There aren't a whole lot of words in it. Things like Bank Machine, Debit Card, Truck, Donut and apparently f*cking bitch have no Dene translation so they use the English word. And then they are surprised when we can understand the gist of what they are saying...
