Pier 6 playground would be my favorite free play space in Brooklyn if only the parks dept would address the TOTAL LACK OF SHADE there. Still, there's a water park, and Blue Marble ice cream, and grilled cheese from the Milk Truck, so it's hard to complain too too much.
And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

I went there yesterday, and the milk truck WASN'T THERE. Are you saying it's there now? Why must the milk truck taunt me so?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Does the milk truck offer exotic flavored milk at seven dollars a glass, to be drunk with four-dollar artisan cookies?

Not the actual truck, but a Milk Truck branded cart. Were you there in the morning? It didn't show up til noon today.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I bought mango at Trader Joe's. First time I've bought mango in the US.
Uh, why didn't someone warn me? This is disgusting.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Speaking only for myself, because as far as my experience goes, that's what mangoes taste like. I've been told, "No, not really - not even a little bit."
I love mango and would love to eat a "real" one one day.
IONews - the sirens have gone off. Pretty heinous storms headed our way.

Ah. Milk Truck was here yesterday. I wasn't looking at the signs closely enough.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I'm pretty sure I did mention. Mango here is not mango.
In other (alarming) news, the wind just blew over my woodshed. Last month it took out my neighbor's carport. It is completely brutal.
