Okay so we're all familiar with the Verizon eyesore on the banks of the East River, and the fact that it's hate-fuel for those who have to look at it from Brooklyn, but now the company is taking it to the streets, and likely annoying even more of the city. Their never-ending "network is always with you" campaign was filming earlier over near 7th Street and 1st Avenue. Did you see hundreds of red shirts clogging up the East Village today? Can you see them now?

Yeah, I don't get why you'd want this crowd of people following you around everyhwere. For "support?" Please! How is that good. Why not just have reliable service period.

I feel so sorry for the hipster asswipes in Brooklyn having to look at a building. Perhaps if they concerned themselves with weightier things, they wouldn't be asswipes.

Verizon also filming over by McCarren Park in Williamsburg today.

this isn't interesting. how's it any different from every other movie/TV/ad shoot going on around the city?
