Yup! That about sums it up! Very funny.
Introverts unite!
Lol! Love it!
Sign of the times.
Perfect! Gary gets it every time!
Yeah baby, nothing is EVERYTHING!!
Yes. That’s the UWS now. Ossified naysayers
I feel you Nancy 👏
I’m in!
Okay. But does it indicate “No Anything” or “No Nuthin’?”
Nothing is the new something
It’s all in the interpretation!
I think it means “No doing nothing”, which means you have to do something!
And we could use some of these out East!
Just in case you don’t understand the meaning NO! No this, no that, just no, no and more no!
Right on brother!
Sorry Gary, but it’s so you (and a lot of us too!)🤣
This is a neighborhood that doesn’t value the people who don’t have the privilege to afford to live here. That sign might be funny but it highlights an important truth.
