These Fox2 "Neighborhood" Commercials
Posted: July 14 08, 5:11 am
Ok, just noticed these since I've been working nights.
If you haven't seen them, basically they pick someone from a random Stl neighborhood, usually city, and have them extoll the virtues of that particular area.
For instance, someone from Benton Park might state that it's an invention of aldermen and they're damn lucky Soulard is next door.
Anyway, just this morning, some lady was on propping up Hyde Park, glowing about the park and "new renovation".
HYDE F'ING PARK.
I'm a northsider. Grew up there, own things there, identify with it. I applaud her civic pride, but this is like placing ads to come visit the Gaza Strip.
Most places have the good and the bad. Hyde Park is all bad. I think I'd rather live in Wells, which is pretty much the worst place on this side of the river I can think of.
