“Saba, the bodega right outside my apartment, on Underhill between Eastern Parkway and St. John’s next to Sepia, is… umm… dare i say… showing signs of gentrification… About a month ago, they cleaned up the place a bunch, got a nice new counter, and got a grill. Then, last week, they started carrying Odwalla products and Honest Tea. Regardless, it’s a pretty good bodega.”

If you are in the Met Food on Vanderbilt near Park, check out the handmade sign over by the breads. Made me laugh, and no, I didn’t get any bread.
Thanks to Emily for being ready with the camphone.

jimbo79 writes: “My dog seems to have identified stray voltage in front of 398 Sterling Place. We used to pass that way twice a day on our walks. About a month ago, I noticed would hold back as I approached this spot, and then race ahead as fast as he could, in both cases as far as the length of the leash would allow. I shrugged it off at first but then he became reluctant to even leave the house at walk time. Then I realized he was showing the same behavior that he showed at the Underhill Avenue hot spot in 2004…”
“Back in 2004, this dog exhibited the same behavior, laying back then skipping ahead, each day as we passed a spot on Underhill between Sterling and St. Johns. I thought it was weird that he always did that at the same spot, but didn’t think it was serious. Then one day when there was a lot of melted snow and salt on the sidewalk, my other dog (RIP), who never before had seemed to react, fell over on his side, writhing in pain…”

It’s strange! It’s savage! It’s cruel! It’s called… GentriConfrontation ™ !!!
Here’s how you play: all you have to do is see how quickly you can turn any topic into an “anti-gentrification” rant!
Example: Suppose a person posts on where the best place to buy beer is. You could respond sensibly (“The Met on Vanderbilt has really improved its selection”), or you could reply humorously (“I really like the beer at Jackie’s 5th Amendment”). These would be good replies… but if you want to win GentrifiConfrontation ™, you’d have to reply like this:
“Back in the day, you could only get 40’s of OE there. Too bad all the yuppies moved in.”
YOU’VE BEEN GENTRICONFRONTED!! DO NOT PASS SODA, DO NOT COLLECT YOU CRACK VIALS!!!
C’mon everybody! It’s as fun as kids in bars, it’s as free as apartments on
Crazy Lane, and it’s easier than a boycott!!
