From The New York Shitty Inbox, Part II: A Candidate For The People?
Filed under: 11237, 11385, Bushwick, Bushwick Brooklyn, Ridgewood, Ridgewood Queens
Here’s the latest bit of campaign literature hilarity courtesy of Vito “Gropez” Lopez. Now he is apparently the “people” candidate. Well, I suppose if one does not consider women to be people this could work. I suppose this is why Mr. Gropez thinks $330,000 worth of fines for sexual harassment is excessive and intends to fight it in court…
From The New York Shitty Inbox: Greetings From Ridgewood!

This New York Daily News/campaign literature mash-up was made possible by a resident of Ridgewood. As you can see Mr. Gropez appears to have taken some, um, creative license with the highlighted image. Interesting. In any case, he needs to parlay some of that campaign money and hire a better Photoshop wizard. Bad.
P.S.: Oh yeah, if this fellow is willing to utilize phony photos for the campaign trail, exactly what kind of City Councilman do you think he will be? Just sayin’…
UPDATE, August 4, 2013: The New York Daily News has taken notice of this hilarious item and has a rather nice article about it. You can/should read it here!
UPDATE, August 5, 2013: New York Magazine’s Daily Intelligencer tender it’s two cents;
…New York Shitty suggested the Lopez campaign employ a better Photoshopper. It would also benefit by not retouching photos that appeared in easily Googlable Daily News stories in the first place.
Well said. And last— but hardly least— here’s what Queens Crap has to say:
This guy is either really stupid, or has cojones the size of cantaloupes.
I’d say both— but why split hairs?

Alas, MySpace Realty (as seen above and here) did not make the cut. Nonetheless, Buzzfeed’s selections are pretty cringe-worthy and not surprisingly Williamsburg is well represented…
