CAN YOU SEE THE DIFFERENCE?



People often ask me what the difference is between the Upper West Side and Bay Ridge. Well, Overheard in New York has posted the perfect answer.
Mom to seven-year-old crossing street: "Be careful, dear. You don't want to get run over or we can't have sushi."

--78th & Amsterdam


Father to son running towards intersection: "Remember! A foot in the street means a foot in your ass!"

--57th & 4th, Bay Ridge, Brooklyn
Simple and beautiful.

Oh, God, that last one sounds like my father!

I used to tell my friends that I could tell a Brooklyn bar from a Manhattan bar:

In Manhattan, they talk about obscure theater productions, while in Brooklyn they talk about repairing the car.
