hamfisted attempts at boondoggling naive midwesterners into moving to the projects - coded language abt the neighborhood - subway commute time lies - explanation of the unlimited metro card - generally inept filmmaking/salesmanship

more of a wry chuckle than anything i guess

i loved how they used barrel-distorting extra-wide lenses to sell those tiny apartments

s1ocki, Saturday, 10 January 2009 17:05 (fifteen years ago) link

and they still looked tiny and shitty!

ice cr?m, Saturday, 10 January 2009 17:07 (fifteen years ago) link

the apts want to be bigger and nicer like how the neighborhood wants to improve and that guy wants to not be an idiot

Schwwww (harbl), Saturday, 10 January 2009 17:09 (fifteen years ago) link

lol troo

ice cr?m, Saturday, 10 January 2009 17:12 (fifteen years ago) link

it's funny that they're so upfront about how their testimonials are from non-native hayseeds too

s1ocki, Saturday, 10 January 2009 17:46 (fifteen years ago) link

like who's opinion am i going to trust about nyc apartments, seasoned nyers or wide-eyed joes who just moved there from buttfuck iowa

s1ocki, Saturday, 10 January 2009 17:47 (fifteen years ago) link

also lol @ directing their campaign at new transplants as no one who knows anything abt the city would choose to live there

ice cr?m, Saturday, 10 January 2009 17:54 (fifteen years ago) link

they should have testimonials from locals

"i used to be terrified to go w/in three blocks of that place - now an actual white couple lives there!"

"the 4/5 is only is an hour to midtown!"

"we got mcdonalds and chinese takeout..."

no butthurt-o but eat a dicc dog, there are projects in the midwest trying to convince naive suburbanite yuppies to move into also -- i dont believe for 1 minute the naive burbanites of the east coast are any more savvy

xhuxk d (deej), Saturday, 10 January 2009 19:49 (fifteen years ago) link

im very protective of the naive midwestern brothers & sisters

xhuxk d (deej), Saturday, 10 January 2009 19:50 (fifteen years ago) link

i think the point is that it's completely unsavvy

"hamfisted attempts"

you down with challo.p.p.? (J0rdan S.), Saturday, 10 January 2009 19:52 (fifteen years ago) link

everyone from the east coast is savvier than everyone from the midwest duh

ice cr?m, Saturday, 10 January 2009 19:53 (fifteen years ago) link

everyone from the midwest is savvy as everyone from the east coast cuz they used to live there, then moved west and got even more rugged --

xhuxk d (deej), Saturday, 10 January 2009 19:58 (fifteen years ago) link

were like the frontiersman's east coaster

xhuxk d (deej), Saturday, 10 January 2009 19:58 (fifteen years ago) link

no one from the east coast moves to the midwest - maybe some people from the midwest move back after they cant hack it or whatever...

ice cr?m, Saturday, 10 January 2009 20:00 (fifteen years ago) link

for a city with a near-zero crime rate and a huge % of american jobs u nyc-ers sure do like to talk about how rough it is there

xhuxk d (deej), Saturday, 10 January 2009 20:01 (fifteen years ago) link

dude u tryn figure out how to pay for fancy dinners and coke on 80k a/year and see youll be runnin back to chicago

ice cr?m, Saturday, 10 January 2009 20:03 (fifteen years ago) link

so east coasters dont move to the midwest bcuz they like to throw their money away -- economic shitbin thread suddenly makes so much sense

xhuxk d (deej), Saturday, 10 January 2009 20:06 (fifteen years ago) link

yr not realizing this til now kinda proves my point abt midwestern naivety

ice cr?m, Saturday, 10 January 2009 20:08 (fifteen years ago) link

no one from the east coast moves to the midwest

yeah this is provably bullshit

gr8080, Saturday, 10 January 2009 21:07 (fifteen years ago) link

ppl generally don't use swears around here so you gotta find out what they mean and how to spell 'em on the internet or whatever, which is bound to turn up some spurious information

i like to fart and i am crazy (gbx), Saturday, 10 January 2009 21:08 (fifteen years ago) link

dom they got cajunsquirrelengland.jpg over us, and I heard Marcello was back on the boards too

Goodnight, Mr. Johnson. (country matters), Saturday, 10 January 2009 21:08 (fifteen years ago) link

i was just playing back there but to be completely 100% serious i cant think of one person i grew up w/in boston who moved to the midwest other than for lol college - im sure this is mostly abt my social cohort and general migration patterns for the whole country that favor all the other regions besides the midwest - but i still think theres something abt an east coast* mindstate that cant deal in midwesterness

*by east coast i mean the northeast obvs

hey dudes i was just dicc-in' around -- im probably moving to nyc in the next year or so -- that said nyc is where you go to make it, then you move where you actually want to live once you are successful

xhuxk d (deej), Saturday, 10 January 2009 21:31 (fifteen years ago) link

"frontiersman's east coaster" read this as :

frontiersman's meat coaster (forksclovetofu), Sunday, 11 January 2009 00:21 (fifteen years ago) link

Ppl be getting flamey on the waldorf synthesizer userlist:

Well hello Mr H*****...

Sorry to break it to you this way, but either you didn't read the post
properly or your mother raised a retard. The Evolver units, both of which I
have in the room wih me right now, allow you to create digital waveforms,
you can import them or draw them from scratch in the editing software. The
Evolver desktop has 32 slots for user waves for you to fill at your leisure.

Once you've done that, my arrogant but clearly mentally-challenged friend,
you can take those waves and scroll through them just like you would with
any WAVETABLE.

Now you've clearly just been flamed, but you lit the fire yourself by
betraying your IGNORANCE. Normally I would let this kind of thing pass, but
the fact is I only posted to try and stop two people arguing over nothing.
One guy mistook the other's passion for the subject for rudeness. Now the
situation has EVOLVED to a point where I am being impolite to you on-forum,
but I have to admit that I feel that this is an appropriate response to your
insulting comments and overuse of BLOCK CAPS.

I would suggest that you WAVE goodbye at this point, and perhaps in future
save that kind of patronising attitude for a subject you are a bit more
familiar with. Maybe pass some time browsing through manuals. I'm guessing
that indulging in your particular field of expertise will leave you with one
hand free to turn the pages.

With all due respect

D***
