I don't think it's the criticism of Rocky Point, per se, but the posting of threads simply to attempt to aggravate someone that is not acceptable.


I guess if you love RP, you can look at it this way.

Unbelievable. I have no problem with Rocky Point at all, I do have a problem with people who compare the middle of the Island to Compton when it's basically the same as where he lives, minus a 40 foot cliff down to a pile of rocks and an extra 30 minutes of commuting.
Youre welcome to your opinions Dman
As I am to mine.

I just think you're trolling by dragging RP into a neighboring towns bad news.
Its clearly personal and doesent change the Middle of Brookhavens realities one iota.

If you knew anything about the area youd realize that Sound Beach is pretty much Miller Places baby as North Shore Beach is Rocky Points. Why not drag Miller Place in too while your at it.

Should we hold Selden or Medford accountable for Farmingville.
Or vice versa.

Whatever you need to tell yourself to feel good about that awesome commute. Ill be watching the sunset over the bluffs. Just me and my bulletproof vest.

Like I said ...it sucks here.
Stay away.

Ok..let's just stop all this arguing. Let's all just get along by agreeing everything east of Rte 110 and West of the North and South forks is a dung heap.

Isn't that a lot easier than just picking one town, hamlet, village, or zipcode to knock.

Problem solved.

Don't worry, this too shall pass ...

Last night I opened a birthday card from a relative who now lives out of state and she wrote in it something about how cute I looked as a little girl in my sundress and hat when I would come to Rocky Point to their summer house ...

A lot of people have very fond thoughts about RP!

Really

Whats with all the bad news??
; )

Thanks LI

Although I now live in the RP-district side of SB, I lived the first 20 years of my life in MP. SB was always viewed as an extension of its respective neighbors.

In the 70's, SB was the wrong side of the tracks (from MP) and RP was perceived as Harlem. Things have come a long way (although I'd still avoid Main Street, RP).
I wouldnt...Rocky Point has come a very long way since the 70s.
I actually thought it was on the MP side(my bad)....either way its not Rocky Point.

I might avoid the square in Sound Beach.
They got damn good Chinese though.

Ok..that does it. Enough already. Stop this nonsense. I suggest dman, crooks, Mikey and anyone else who would like to join us...we meet at a convenient bar, drink lots and lots of beers..then really go at it by proceeding to urinate on each others legs.
That will settle the issue here once and for all.

lol - I'm in!

Crooks - you're forgetting I'm a gypsy... sold my house in Farmingville to go TarHeel #1 - then moved back to East Moriches for the past year - now about to embark on TarHeel #2. Whatever happens to this thread is fine - mods mod and I won't argue. I just think that there's a slant here and not admitting it is wrong.

If there's people getting murdered in RP or SB (which they are!), I find that perfectly relevant to a CD thread.

Me too.

I cant follow you anymore.

Youre a moving target.

Nobody was murdered in Rocky Point.Lets just be accurate and grind axes about commute arguments from months ago.
