How about going in and having a nice conversation with them and telling them all about the other great places to get their fix. It takes a bit more effort than an immature hand gesture, but at least you'll actually be helping instead of, well, whatever it is you like to think you're doing.Andynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-49041624970698854042012-08-30T14:59:31.586-04:002012-08-30T14:59:31.586-04:00Everytime you walk by a chain in the East Village,...Everytime you walk by a chain in the East Village, give a big THUMBS DOWN to all the horrible patrons inside!<br />Public shaming is one of our last available resources.<br />I have been doing this and seriously, people actually do get offended.glammanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-88004280090770500272012-08-30T11:14:57.332-04:002012-08-30T11:14:57.332-04:00And totally MEEdiocre.And totally MEEdiocre.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-7125546059910552592012-08-29T22:04:22.863-04:002012-08-29T22:04:22.863-04:00There are other Mee Noodle Shops.

The clientele will be the new residents, BRAND new residents, temporary but infinitely replaceable brand new residents of the EV, largely thanks to NYU's every semester dumping of them on us... They know Starbucks (like they know Subway and Papa John's and CVS) but they have no awareness at all of how much better (for instance, and within a couple of blocks) Everyman and Ost Cafe are. Also, given the proximity to 14th Street shopping and to NYE&E and Beth Israel and their workers and patients the jig is up. Just part of the avalanche or black hole (chose your metaphor) of gentrification. Bummed.
