Stuy Pyro Leaves Notes In Hieroglyphics
Earlier this week, Hoboken's public safety official lamented what happened during this past Saturday's St. Patrick's Day parade (Hoboken hold their parade early)—an affair that included public urination from rooftops, a couple having sex in public view, and a lot of drunkenness—and suggested the parade wasn't worth the trouble. Other residents might agree, like this person who put up a notice in his/her apartment building, The Summit, to question the chaos a neighbor's house party had brought. NJ.com has a photo of the notice, via "Duffy's bartender Chris Halleron in his "Derelict of the Week" newsletter (he did not post the letter himself; he just sent out the photo of it on his newsletter)." Read the rest of the letter here.
Some more photographs of parade revelry were taken by one man who attempted to watch the parade, but was instead assaulted by some other people.

Jen - The last 3 links point to the same content.
Jen, all the links go to the same site.
Sorry about that—should be fixed now.

The impact of such letters are always diminished by embarrassing spelling errors.
"is", that is.
Hobokenist?
PS - most of those people in the photos appear to be of Mediterranean origin. Black Irish prehaps?

Touchy touchy. A few deposits of human biological functions and the person gets annoyed. Can you imagine if she lived on the LES?
Here's hoping they make St. Brendan's birthday a special holiday also. There were two St. Brendan's so they need to be celebrated separately also. Along with St. Finian, St. Ciarán of Saighir, St. Ciaran of Clonmacnoise, two St. Columba's, St. Mobhí, St. Ruadhain, St. Senan, St. Ninnidh, St. Lasserian, and St. Canice. So if I was this person I would be counting my blessings. Plus you have New Year's Eve, Halloween, 4th of July, Super Bowl Sunday, Mardi Gras, Puerto Rican Pride Day, the Carribean festival, Norwegian unification Day.
They may be wearing green, but they ain't Irish.
What gives? I saw a fireman in one of the pictures. When did they start drinking? The picture of the girl who is barely vertical should consider one or two less pitchers per hour of Guiness as she is putting on a bit around the mid section.
Bozack. I don't see any Black Irish they all seem to be a wearing of the green.
This is why NJ has a reputation for being full of nasty, steroidal "bro's." I mean -- defecating in the hallways? Really?
But what really gets me is that the uproar on the NJ.com site was over the fact that the letter writer was anonymous. Because if you want to complain about someone taking a dump on your doorstep, you've really got to be willing to fight the guy over it -- otherwise, you've got no place complaining. (Hey, pass the steroids!)
So, ok, new rule -- New Jersey, you can visit New York on weekends and for work. But, uh, try not to poop on anything while you're here, k?
That 'maple syrupy smell' just took a dark turn...
Norther NJ (especially Hoboken) is full of scum. Why this should be a surprise to anyone is beyond me.
I'm just not sure about your drastic generalization.
Sounds kind of...ignorant.
Hoboken is one square mile packed full of twenty-somethings with more bars per mile than a penitentiary.
That doesn't mean that N.Jersey falls under the same category.
NYPD officers raping women, Bernie Madoff stealing vast amounts of money from people, Williamsburg, police inserting plungers into immigrants anuses, Staten Island, bedbugs & yet New Jersey is full of scum?
Some of you need to step away from the circle jerk that is the NYC mind frame for just one second.
Yeah but when we defecate in public, we do it ironically...with a touch of class.
You want to start comparing? Here goes:
NJ cops charged with racial profiling, illegal searches and corruption
Mayor of Jersey City and Newark indicted
Toxic Elizabeth
Ramapo Hillbillies
Maple syrup and other vast chemical pollution
etc, etc
But at least our St. Patrick's Parade doesn't have people peeing and crapping in their own buildings.
Admit it. We don't call you 'B&T trash' without cause.
You are forgetting the JC councilman who peed off a balcony onto a crowd of people, and that the current JC mayor was photographer naked on his front porch BEFORE getting elected.
"We don't call you 'B&T trash' without cause."
Ummm....... Yes you do. Ignorant, trashy incidents occur all the time in NYC, yet it's always "that" person is trash, not "Queens is full of trash" or whatever when something happens. You ignore the good & wait for the negative in NJ to say, "see, I told you".
NYC is a masterbatorium that loves to hate everything that is not NYC. NJ just happens to be in the unfortunate circumstance of being your neighbor. Provincialism is a sport in your city.
Quick, someone call a Whaaaambulance.
I guess that neighbor wasn't invited to the party.
Sorry for the poop.
Valeriob hit a all time low with his defecation on the floor.
