The East Village is being completely eviscerated. What can we do to stop the relentless, soul-less march of the generic and the franchise and the the thoughtless zombies that support them?????EVKikinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-68110798375202269952012-04-12T13:43:02.268-04:002012-04-12T13:43:02.268-04:00Big Brother: 7-11s have existed in cities for year...Big Brother: 7-11s have existed in cities for years. In fact, I would say they are more common in major cities as opposed to suburbs. I don't know how one determines what belongs in a city as opposed to what doesn't belong in one, other than personal preference.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-15808455599467261312012-04-12T00:08:42.138-04:002012-04-12T00:08:42.138-04:00It's barbaric!It's barbaric!Anne Phelanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01652406810655505449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-57855360967682960552012-04-11T19:43:28.409-04:002012-04-11T19:43:28.409-04:00@VH Nice work!@VH Nice work!Big Brothernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-28048735359833605772012-04-11T19:11:23.145-04:002012-04-11T19:11:23.145-04:00Taking a moment to re-direct you to the pro-local ...Taking a moment to re-direct you to the pro-local biz sign I created for Tompkins Square Bagels --<br /><br />http://vhmckenzie.blogspot.com/2012/02/chains-are-coming-chains-are-coming.html<br /><br /><br />The original is quite huge (a bit big or framing) so Chris has two smaller prints of the sign placed prominently in the shop.VH McKenziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15758245677856344651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-67272853345314034202012-04-11T17:43:16.536-04:002012-04-11T17:43:16.536-04:00@Anon 4:10 PM To put it as simplistically as possi...@Anon 4:10 PM To put it as simplistically as possible, people "hate" on 7-11 because they do not belong in New York City. They belong in the suburbs. We don't want things here that remind us of the suburbs. That's why we moved to the <em>city</em>. We want to live in a <em>city</em> not the Sarasota Mall.<br /><br />All better?Big Brothernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-41604369319339294242012-04-11T16:10:42.002-04:002012-04-11T16:10:42.002-04:00I grew up drink slurpees.
