You see a hipster taking his potbelly pig out for a walk. Oh, you know your hood’s reputation is done and dead at that point.

(It would be mean of me to call for a seizure and roast of the pig and convert to meat again for a day in order to partake in the “pernil” consumption, it just would be too mean. After all, it’s not the pig’s fault for having a dipshit of an owner who confines it to a non-suitable setting, in efforts to appear out of the ordinary).

P.S-although it seems to be overlooked, it’s illegal in NYC to have a pig as a pet.

And there goes the neighborhood…

I found out today that Real World is going to film its 21st season in Brooklyn this summer. While they did not disclose a particular location, there seems to be rumors that it’s going to be a strategical location. Kevin Powell, a cast member of the first season of Real World, is running for New York’s 10th Congressional District this Fall, which major neighborhoods consist of Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn Heights, Canarsie, East New York, Brownsville, and parts of Fort Greene and Williamsburg. I prefer the theory of a strategical location, as the part of Williamsburg that is in the 10th District primarily consists of Williamsburg’s Hasidic Jewish community and they would not tolerate that shit (thank the gods). And we all know that shit would not be filmed in East New York nor Canarsie.

Considering the usual format of the show (big cast, one token cast member, big crew, ample space, “non-threatening” population outside of the house, yet still have a whiff of “ohhh, diversity”) I guessing that it’s going to be the western-part of Bed-Stuy, as it is a neighborhood known for its big townhouses. Even though Brooklyn Heights has a significant number of townhouses, there’s pretty much no minorities left. Bed-Stuy is “up and coming,” yet still invokes a sense of “diversity” and the “masses are living together in harmony” and there is a variety of lovely ethnic restaurants to choose from because, as we all know, that’s a great indicator of tolerance </sarcasm>.

Yeah, I really do. This video pretty much sums up my dislike for most things yuppie/hipster tainted, in a humorous way. The analysis of my “dislike” will come later on…
