"Mothafuck Da Police!"

Usually I wouldn't go about pointing out ones flaws. That's just not how I roll. Not everyone is perfect. But what really grinds my gears is when someone lacks common sense. In this case, I'll make an exception.

On Monday, my supervisor asked me to pick up some pillows in Williamsburg for a photo shoot. I leave Complex at around 11 A.M. to pick up the L train over at Union Square. Now, I've never really been to Williamsburg. The only thing I know about the Williamsburg is that there's a bridge named after it, Peter Luger steakhouse, and Nort 7. As I hop off the train at Lorimer Street, the directions to "Rise and Fall Skateshop" said travel West on Metropolitan Avenue towards Meeker Avenue. Ok, at this point I had no idea where the fuck East and West was, based on where I was standing. So what do I do? I did what any other person with common sense would do. I asked someone.

Just my luck! A female cop is sitting in her cruiser right outside the train station. "Excuse me miss, can you point me in the direction going West?" Meanwhile the cop looks dumbfounded. "West? That way," as she points to the right. I thank her, and make my way down Metro in the direction she pointed. Meanwhile, I realize I've already walked five blocks and haven't seen Meeker Avenue. Hmmm, this seemed odd. Roasting my ass off in the 90+ weather, I ask a random guy on the street, "Excuse me, is this way heading West, towards Meeker Avenue?" "Yeah, I think so." Fine, I keep walking. I walk another six blocks. At this point I'm pissed. I haven't seen Meeker Avenue, or the street that I'm supposed to turn on. Feeling tired, dehydrated, and furious I ask a woman chilling on her stoop. "Miss, where can I find Havenmeyer Street?" She replies, "HAVENMEYER? Isn't that in Williamsburg?" My jaw drops. "Yes, I believe so. Aren't I heading in the right direction?" "No dear, Havenmeyer is in Williamsburg. That's all the way back that way!"

Apparently, I walked almost 15 blocks in the WRONG direction. All thanks, to these two fucking idiots who guided me in the wrong direction. All these idiots had to say was "I'm sorry, I don't know." How fucking hard is that? A simple 45 minute trip, turned literally into a 2 and a half hour journey across the fucking Sahara.

So I dedicate to you two, from the heart, a nice, great, ginormous, FUCK YOU!

GG!
