New York Shitty Day Starter: Friday Edition
This photograph of a young girl waiting for her mother to complete a day’s work at a Bushwick Tortilleria was taken by Carnade and struck me as the perfect way to kick off this summery Friday. The wait’s almost over!

New York Shitty Day Ender: The (Field) House On Poo Corner
Filed under: 11211, 11222, Bum Shit, Dung of the Day, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic, Other Shit, Williamsburg, Williamsburg Brooklyn
This, dear readers, is what the McCarren Park Ladies restroom looked like today. Why is there such a long line, (at least 18 people are clearly visible) you ask? I honestly do not know. But if I was to hazard a guess I’d say one of the toilets and perhaps the sink are not functional. As last Memorial Day weekend will attest, this is not an uncommon occurrence. It does however, beg the question as to where my intrepid Greenburgers can do his (or her) business. Well, I am pleased to report that I have (albeit accidentally) stumbled upon the answer! It’s a little place I like to call “Poo Corner”.
And some of you might be amused to know it is located directly behind the field house where our purported “Parks Administrator’s” (whose job is to be on top of this sort of thing) office is located!

P.S.: Lest you ladies are wondering, the mens bathroom isn’t much better.

Because I Can: Whitefish
This, um, creation has nothing really to do with north Brooklyn— or New York City for that matter. Although I suppose it could be argued that I acquired it in Greenpoint (and for the record, I did). Butt— oops I meant but— that is to miss what makes this so special. All I’m saying is I would liked to have been a fly on the wall when the group of people responsible for “Whitefish” had their eureka! moment.

From The New York Shitty Inbox: Vendors Wanted
As many of you know, every Friday this summer the Greenpoint Reformed Church is hosting the Greenpoint Flea Market Bazaar: an indoor/outdoor market where crafters, cooks, junk mavens and thriftsters can sell their wares. Will, last night I was contacteds by the people organizing this market. They they have special offer for vendors and they want me to pass it along. Here it is. Greenpoint Flea writes:
Just wanted to let you know we are running a special discount for all vendors $25-$45 for all spaces in the market the next two Fridays 6/25 and 7/2.
Anyone interested in taking renting a table for these or any other upcoming Greenpoint Flea Market event should contact Greenpoint Flea via email at: greenpointflea (at) gmail (dot) com.
Thanks!

From The New York Shitty Photo Pool, Part II: Schadenfreude
Filed under: 11211, Carbecque, Criminal Activity, Williamsburg, Williamsburg Brooklyn
This image of last weekend’s carbecque comes courtesy of Alex Gaidouk. While I am on the subject, I have noticed that a great many people purport that this particular automobile has a proclivity for spontaneously combusting— and it runs upwards $350,000 a pop. What kind of person would outlay that kind of money for such a item? I’d really like to know.
