    This is a bit off topic but where the hell are the bodies that are supposed to be attached to those wings? On any given night, people order hundreds of thousands of chicken things in bars around the country and I've never seen wingless chicken bodies for sale at Whole Foods or Fairway. And if there are bodies, how bloody large can they be, given the size of those wings? East River? #shutupbrooklyn

    @Buttafooco: They use smaller/mini chickens. And what of the rest of the meat? Have you ever had a chicken nugget? Pieced together chicken sandwich on an airplane? Well... the other chicken parts of the mini chicken go to that sort of thing. #shutupbrooklyn

    @overunderover: thankfully, I haven't had any sort of fast food in over 7 years but it's one of the reasons I am at the organic market 3 times per week. This stuff makes me feel very willy nilly. #shutupbrooklyn

    @Buttafooco: NYT ran an article a few weeks ago about how wings have risen in price above breast meat because they're more in demand. Chicken parts are all separate commodities . . . and all nonrecognizable parts get combined into mechanically separated chicken, ie pink toothpaste-looking processed chicken "ingredient." #shutupbrooklyn

    I'm sorry, but those BWW wings are up there in the Popeye Chicken scale for pure chicken crackiness. Those wings need to be carefully rationed out to the populace like the H1N1 vaccine or more specifically like Methadone. #shutupbrooklyn

    When I was in college the local BW3 (as it was called then) had 20 cent wing night on Tuesdays. Ugh, I'm old.

    (Also, to person downthread, it's a bar/restaurant.) #shutupbrooklyn

    This made me eat three Devil Dogs washed down with a Yoo-Hoo. So some good really can come from bad, cringe-inducing writing inspired by the wretched inhabitants of the People's Republic of Park Slope. #parkslope

    If you're wearing it in the Metro area - even really far out on a shitty train - then you're just lying

    Nah, it'd be perfect on a far out shitty train. I know a number of working class people who live here and hate it. I'd advise you against telling them to get on a bus to Detroit, though. #shutupbrooklyn

    What's more painful--the shirt or Gawker's condescension toward the guy that made it, small-time Pro Tools engineers and wannabe novelists?

    This blog hates aspiring novelists. We get it. And uppity Pro Tools users. Okay. And people that actually make money selling T-shirts. Check. And hipsters. Uh huh. And bedroom poets. Right.

    This is poisonous. #shutupbrooklyn

    i hate when people say they can't afford to do anything fun in new york. my favorite thing about this city is that anytime--day or night--there are a million free or cheap things to do. rents are down this year too--and yes i have roommates, but i still pay less rent than my friend in florida does for her piece of shit 1 bedroom. in short, i'd rather be broke here than rich in orlando. #shutupbrooklyn
