"I am SOOOO BK..."

Don't you hate those conversations. Where people try to OUT-BK each other?!? 
Ugh. 

"My family owned a brownstone...in Park Slope...in the 80's."

Blah blah blah!!!!

YO...
I'm so Brooklyn that...
"I can't afford smoothies in my hood anymore!"

Boom.

Jk ;) 

For reals, I'm so BK That...
My Italian grandfather worked on the docks in Red Hook. He wore a toothpick behind his right ear to get picked daily by the foreman. 

My Irish Grandfather worked in a factory in Bush Terminal. And every day after work he we went to Givn Me Rent Monie Way PUB!* Came home drunk and empty handed to my great grandmother and their 6 kids. 

Leavn the rest of my Puerto Rican & German NY ancestors for another time! 

Ya'll get it, right?!?

Today, what is your BK she-story or history?!?

Comment below with this Format: 

"I'm so Brooklyn That..."
(Insert facts. Please, no "to cool for school" answers. Real life. BK times.)

*Thats not a real bar's name. If you knew that, you are BK smart. If you didn't realize it was made up then please go on living thinkn that in the 1920's a watering hole named O' Givn Me Rent Monie Way PUB existed! Scratch that...

Everybody please KNOW there was absolutely a bar that existed in BK in the 1920's named O' Givn Me Rent Monie Way PUB. ;)
