East Village: The Next Park Slope?
After coming upon this scene a couple weeks ago in front of Pommes Frites on 2nd Avenue, I began to worry that my neighborhood’s sidewalks would soon be mobbed by the stroller mafia.
I can only hope that they were just visiting. This clearly isn’t a group of Park Slope Mommies - they insist on feeding their offspring only organic, baked potatoes - not the ones fried in hot oil.

Craziest Gadgets says:You can tell it’s the NYU East Campus or as the oldtimers call it “the East Village” by the fratboy in the baseball hat and long sleeve under a t-shirt.

Sally Tomato says:Don’t even. My ‘hood is a million times worse - although not as quite as insufferable as Park Slope.

greg from daddytypes says:Relax. Cheap-ass strollers and Canal St bags? It’s just a pack of daytrippers momentarily blown off course. Give’em a few minutes, and they’ll be off to Magnolia for some cupcakes.

Marc says:What the?! I didn’t think you could fit something like that through the door there. Your picture makes the place look much bigger than it is…

anon. says:To Marc — the picture is taken from outside Pommes Frites.
I really don’t know who I hate more, them stroller moms or the NYU fratboys. Well if there’s going to be a war, I hope it’ll be between these two groups.

BaHa says:Soon? I get hit by strollers almost daily on Avenues A & B. And strollers clutter the halls of my building, too.
