WOOT: The Park Slope Edition

Ok, so I have no idea what this shit even means...or how on earth it relates to Park Slope. Mostly it just sounds to me like Tiffanhay and Ashlay are Valley Girls rather than Park Slopers, but WOOT seems to disagree. And so Park Slope is front and central in today's Woot sale for a Memorex 4GB media player :

Gentrification Is Other People

Somewhere in Park Slope right now…

Okay, so, the other dhay I was getting my coffhay at this bodega near my flat, and I saw Ashlhay! And I said, “Hey, Ashlhay, want some coffhay?” but Ashlhay didn’t shay hay, she just kept walking past mhay! And so I grabbed my iPhone and called Tiffanhay and said “Tiffanhay, Ashlhay just snubbed mhay at coffhay!” and Tiffanhay said “Brandhay! I’m worrhayed! Ashlhay told mhay that she was going out todhay and buying a MemorexMMP8585C 4GB MP3Video Photo Player!”

And I said “Reallhay? Ashlhay mhay have a whay to plhay an mpthray that isn’t trendhay?” and Tiffanhay said “Reallhay, okhay?” And then we Twittered about it and linked to the Twitter on our Facebooks.

Huh? (right?)  There's more....

Jesus Christ, Whole Foods [Again]

It's in, its out, it's in...I can't fucking keep up.

After reports that Whole Foods wasn't happenin on 3rd Ave, now it appears that it is. Or might be. Honestly, I can't keep up.

But according to Curbed, those bitches are 3/4 finished cleaning up the toxic dump that is soon (?) to house your organic white nectarines and hormone-free chicken tenders.

Whatever.

Climbing Gym Is Happening

Brooklyn Boulders, a new climbing gym in the old Daily News garage on 3rd Ave and DeGraw, is opening to the public in a couple of weeks. The gym apparently has 30 foot ceilings and 18,000 square feet of cool ass climbing options.

Now, I'm not into shit like this AT all, but Thrillist's description of the joint even has my ass intrigued:

"Boasting "probably more climbing wall area than all other walls in the five boroughs combined", BB offers five separate staging areas for everybody from hardcore monkeys ("negative slope" out-facing courses, upside down arches, etc) to weekend dabblers, in the form of several straight vertical ascents scalable by the scrawniest of men, even when not chased by Laser."

I'm not even sure WTF that means, but it sounds kind of rad.

You can blow $20/day there to climb your heart out with your own equipment, or $30/day if you use theirs. But I'm guessing most of you rich, spoiled Park Slope climbing bitches will be opting for the $5,000 lifetime membership. Duh.

COOL OR NOT COOL: GIGANTIC BACK TATTOO ON A CHICK?

Taken at Atlantic Station on the 2/3 platform on Monday eve.

I don't know. I mean, I do admit to a *slight* girl crush on Kat Von D, AND I have actually defended Eve's ridiculous boob paw prints on more than one occasion, but this is maybe taking things a leetle too far?

So what do you think: Cool or Not Cool??
