I had the top score on a Frogger video game at a pizza place somewhere around there.

[Reeses]

Manhattan will be rebranded Manhate’n. All retail stores will be made wheelchair looter accessible.

Untwist thy panties, snowflake.

[Vermont Lt]

Oh OK. You clearly have no idea of the meaning or origin on the words you use.

Is every landlord a Jew, Kike? A slimey (which is how you spell it?). If you came on here calling people Niggers, I am sure you would feel some wrath.

Or, Pollak? Or Wop?

You perpetuate a harsh and nasty stereotype, and just brush it off.

YOU are the reason why people think Republicans and Conservatives are ignorant A-holes.

I am not a snowflake. But I am aware of what “polite” use is and there is no place for antisemitism on this site.

In New York, where there are fantastic Delis, why would any one buy a lettuce sandwich at Subway?

One of the TGI Friday’s mentioned in the excerpt is across 5 Av from St. Patrick’s too. I had a beer in that Friday’s one time.

[Maskot]

🥱 Clearly you ARE a bit touchy and easily triggered. THAT is the definition of snowflake. The slam at Republicans and conservatives cements it.

[dfwgator]

You get what you vote for.

[dfwgator]

First, we take Manhattan...then we take Berlin.

[dfwgator]

I think there are a lot of shysters in Florida.

[Chode]

here in NY too... i think FL gets the overflow

[Mr. Lucky]

The lieutenant is right on this one.
