It's hard to believe that anyone could not like Staten Island. It's literally one of the greatest boroughs in NYC. Recently, a 'blogger' wrote something on the interweb site Slate.com that called Staten Island 'Planet of the Guidos' -- and they meant that in a bad way.
Anyways, this set off a firestorm of comments from other a-hole bloggers who wanted to 'feed off the Staten Island hype.'
We tried to read the Slate blog, but it's hard to understand, so we went to a place called Gothamist, which is like a BrooklynVegan for Manhattanite transplants. This is what we found:
"Staten Island was always full of douchebags,"
What the effe?
"keep SI'ers confined to their island."
effe you! Somebody needs to tell these people off. What makes them the standard-bearers for high culture in NYC?
