He's happy there. You probably have room-mates and live in Bushwick, and I suspect aren't happy. He's also getting paid by you. You're not getting paid by him. He pays no taxes in Fla and his NYPD pension is exempt.

He's laughing at you.

Wait sorry I didn’t get that, is he laughing?

I live in Windsor Terrace and depending on what products he purchases there's a pretty good chance I am in fact getting paid by him, just as indirectly and minutely as he's getting paid by me, and I'm still laughing at him for deciding to live in northern Florida.

So I guess we're both a couple of happy laughing guys getting paid

Products? Cigars, beer and meat bought in Florida or Maspeth? That's a stretch, but you can tell yourself that.

My family -his grandparents and mine- are from there and took the sacraments at IHM on E3 and Ft Ham. My parents were married there. Grandpa drank at Farrell's; Denny's on McDonald occasionally, too. Our dads and uncles do and did. My brothers and cousins do and did an soon my kids will. Not that Farrell's is anything special, mind, but something tells me that you wouldn't fit in there. That's why we still stop by. No transplants.

It's real and authentic, unlike the nerds walking their dogs on 9th Avenue while wearing their Brooklyn t-shirts.

So tell me... Where do you knock them back? Someplace with fruity lambecs and IPAs?

You are certainly a smart and interesting person with a valuable perspective.

You are certainly a smug transplant who wears Brooklyn shirts but doesn't know anyone who was raised there. Worse, you look down on those who were.
