And you, swineboy, are a hypocrite. How dare you order MrGreen not to call you names?

jamie pup, it's "MrGreen", not "mrgreen". MrGreen has never associated rent control with poor people. It was the other posters who did that. Thanks for pointing out that issue, how...

JDog, if taxes are lowered on low-energy consuming buildings, taxes will have to be increased on high-energy consuming buildings. It's two sides of the same coin. Porkboy, here's yo...

KyleByron, MrGreen was referring to a cover to be used while cooking food on the grill, not one to keep the rain out.

shelter life alex, if the landlord could take in enough rent to cover his expenses, he might have enough money left over to make capital improvements. Deregulate the rent. Another opt...

Harley, no doubt snot was cautioning Kate against buying a pig in a poke in the future.

A grill without a cover is almost useless. The broiler on any gas oven will do the same thing.

There was probably an initial burst of shedding, then it settled down into a steady flow of shedding? Your rug is tufted, not knotted, and it will continue to shed until it is threadbare. This is...

People must be given financial incentives to spend their money? MrGreen thinks not. shelter life alex, your porcine friend is WRONG, simply ignorant of the facts. Private developer...

kiwi, it is indeed rude, but people in New York talk are willing to ask and answer such questions.

Great idea! Thanks, regina.

Sea, you are amusing MrGreen. He salutes you.

MamaChilanga, MrGreen has bare parquet floors so that he can tapdance when the downstairs neighbor's baby is napping. rachel (between denver/nyc), it's okay with MrGreen if you have ta...

taracakes, you do not want to deal with defrosting. MrGreen speaks from experience.

Lady J, you must don gloves and open the garbage and look at it in order to figure out who is doing it. Or put up a sign. Or report it and let the super figure it out.

Stick-down carpet tiles are tacky. Martha Stewart will do anything for a buck.

Mason, as MrGreen has said to you before, MrGreen will accept constructive criticism graciously but you must read what he has written. No where has MrGreen implied that the outer boroughs are not ...

JDog, you're suggesting that property taxes go UP on buildings where the landlord already can't afford to make improvements because of rent control. That is perverse. To answer your q...

gigi foucault, the repeated "while" was intended to give structure, as in M.L. King's "I have a dream" speech. It was intentional. Also, MrGreen detests those little face-things you t...

Sorry, Rob, MrGreen's comment was describing the movie-girl's apartment, not this necrothread one.
