Sex and the City Stoop Now Asking for Donations

stoopsigns1009.jpg

Last year residents of a Perry Street townhouse, one that is home to Carrie Bradshaw in a fictional world, put up a chain and a sign threatening away any fans taking photos on the stoop. Since fans allegedly are ignoring the sign, they have added a new one. This time around it's attached to a money drop box, and asks if you take a photo, to donate to a charity for orphaned animals. Hear that Carrie fans? For every photo you take, and dollar you don't donate, you are killing kittens and puppies. VanishingNY spotted the new system, and calls for a new tax in the city: a Tourist & Yunnie Nuisance Tax.

Allegedly?!?!? Those tourists idiots literally get off a bus and line up across the street and take pictures in front of the house one-by-one while the bus idles nearby. I don't know how the residents on that street stand it. They should be allowed to get a restraining order!

Well, at least they are soliciting from a wealthy market... tourists spend many thousands of dollars on vacations to New York. Many will probably donate, some excessively.

What kind of losers would even want these picturs? From one of the most ridiculous, obnoxious shows ever.

So there's a box full of cash on the street secured with a Master lock? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6K1sO1Lvlzg
