Does nobody in southern Brooklyn know how to drive?

37 Upvotes

Lived in bay ridge, sunset park, and now bensonhurst. It’s lowkey a mess, especially around peak hours when everyone gets off work.

Traffic lights are ignored and pedestrians aren’t making it better by jaywalking. Drivers are constantly honking and yelling at each other. Legit witnessed a road rage incident by 86st yesterday.

Apparently you can also just buy your license? Im so fed up 🤦‍♂️

What are greasy fast food joints in Brooklyn you enjoy?

17 Upvotes

So basically it’s just that I was observing the Atlantic Terminal area since I like to explore the area in hopes I can find something like In-N-Out.

My point is that I know In-N-Out is basically exclusive to the the West Coast side of the USA as I was looking for some similar places in the area that have delicious greasy food because I have a penchant for junk food.

PACKAGE STOLEN IN BK BY LASER SHIP EMPLOYEE

44 Upvotes

I ordered a package from Zara which was shipped through laser ship . The item was reported delivered with an image at 2:22pm but when I arrived home 40 mins later there was no package (besides a lululemon package delivered after) I have a ring camera which shows the delivery driver approaching, getting out the vehicle, going around to the passenger side of the truck and then for 24 mins my ring camera disconnects. Shortly after that my lululemon package and me arriving are all captured on camera. The driver 100% used some kind of WiFi jammer to shut the camera off. I’m so pissed off as Zara refuses to refund my almost $300 order because there is a picture of it at my door. What can I do ?? I really want that driver fired I’m so upset !

Adult Swim Drills in Park Slope

10 Upvotes

I wanted to plug Physique Swimming at CBE in Park Slope which has wonderful Adult Beginners classes and Adult Swim Drills (Intermediate). Literally not a paid ad I just want folks to know about since I was looking for a swim drills class for years and only learned about this from some random reddit comment.

The swim drills class is awesome if you lap swim or are preparing for a triathlon and want to improve your technique. Currently I'm the only one in the group class and I'm afraid they'll cancel it for low attendance.

Cheap DENTAL services- DEEP CLEANINGS

3 Upvotes

Hello! 👋
I’m a dental hygiene student in NYC currently looking for patients interested in a low-cost, comprehensive dental cleaning.

All appointments take place at a dental school clinic and are carefully supervised by licensed dentists and hygienists, ensuring your care is safe, thorough, and professionally guided every step of the way.

🦷 Cost & details:
• Deep Cleaning: $20
• X-rays only if needed
• Appointments are longer than a typical dental visit (around 3 hours) since we complete a full oral health assessment before treatment

What’s included:
• Oral cancer screening and head/neck exam
• Gum measurements and periodontal evaluation
• Personalized treatment plan
• Continuous instructor supervision and approval

This may be a great fit if you:
• Don’t have dental insurance
• Haven’t had a cleaning in a while
• Are looking for affordable, high-quality care
• Are okay with a longer visit for more detailed treatment

📍 Location: Downtown Brooklyn at NYC College of Technology (City Tech)

If interested, please email me at [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])

3rd time this week; teen subway surfers on my train.

97 Upvotes

Luckily the last two were stopped by a MTA employee and concerned passengers. This time on the B this afternoon from Midwood to Atlantic a pair of teenage kids I swear no more then 14, masked up walks towards the front of the train. No one to my surprise stood up or stopped them even though it was pretty obvious what they were up once they passed the sliding doors between cars. My blood boiled as I stood up and started walking towards them. One noticed and started to dart towards the first car, before getting trapped and blew by me. I open the doors and ask the riders now staring to alert the conductor that two kids are trying to climb up. Not a single person stood up to help. At which point I was furious. Finally caught up to one of them, only to give them a mouth full of, what they were thinking? If they knew how many other kids have died trying subways surf. Having a teenage son myself, the only thing that was running through my mind was, that God forbid my son ever was that dumb to do something like that, that people would intervene. I couldn't help once they ran off the next stop to scold the people that stood around and did nothing. WTF is going on? I wasn't the best teen boy in the world but wow. I swear I haven't had my blood boil like that in a long while.

I was set on a mission to look for a good quality Mexican flag!! In NYC (preferably Brooklyn). My search went well and found one! Now I’d thought I’d let you know what it for!

One of the comments in my old post said “flag envy is real”…. And oof were they right!! I Hope to pass down this flag to my kids someday (should I have any). FYI the flag was found in Brooklyn, sunset park!!
