Love and Hate
Every once in a while, Brooklyn Sucks gets user submissions. This pleases us. Today, a sampling of user submissions that we have received recently. One a lover, one a hater. Enjoy!

LOL….Thanks!You are my hero!Here’s a story that you might appreciate.My father is a famous artist from Brooklyn who left it after returning from WW2….took art lessons in NYC,got a scholarship to go there on the GI Bill,,,,,,left for carreer opportunities in Colorado where he became famous,also left his Brooklyn love who lived around the block,and guess what?I was stuck growing up in Brooklyn as an adopted kid who waited for highschool to end and then fled to NYC to the LES where my life began and has continued.I have never fit into Brooklyn,and now it is full of every kind of ethnic mafia that exists.Bayridge IS that wrestler guy,in various forms,and the whole borough is one big queazy ,bus terminal in some other country where the restrooms and the restaurants seem questionable and iffy.I’m only here because my 98 year old Brooklyn do or die mother died last year.She wouldn’t leave this harsh borough,and I was forced to always come back to the place of sad and f….ed memories.We hope to move.The irony is that wherever a Brooklynite travels to someplace else,in hopes of escaping the lowdown,provincial,paranoid and nasty mentality of Brooklyn someone always says,”Hey! Brooklyn!,like it’s your nickname,your branding of being from the borough of assholes,…before they try to get rid of you! Yes,there are some deep remembrances and sad memories that tie you to the place, but man!You can keep it!Goodbye for good,Brooklyn.I think you screwed up my heart and brain enough for one lifetme!

Did you know your site is illegal? It’s considered Internet slander and defamation due to the false and non-factual information you’ve provided to your extremely small audience. Your site was reported and you will recieve a cease and desist in the mail, along with information pretaining to the court date that you will be required to attend as a defendent against the City of New York.
Thank you for your time and cooperation!
PS, I am a lawyer so I know you are bullshitting! As a wise man once said, “that Brooklyn bullshit, we on it!”
