There’s an odd symmetry between this Missed Connection, which isn’t an MC, per se, and the Manhattan thing, but we found something oddly comical about it that we thought we’d share: the guy who barfed on me at the “goth” party on 10/25 – w4m – 23 i’m still outraged. and i still don’t know […]

November 24th, 2008 · Comments Off on Missed Connections: Monday Manhattan Special
We never go into that other borough, but Chief Correspondent E.C. Stephens brought this to our attention and, heck, it’s Thanksgiving Week and everybody’s thinking about traveling and dinner anyway, so into Manhattan we go: Pied me in Times Square – w4m – 33 (Midtown) You stopped me at 46th and Broadway and asked me […]

Disconnected in Brooklyn: It Turns Me On You Nearly Killed Me
November 9th, 2008 · 1 Comment
There is nothing like a good Sunday Brooklyn Missed Connection involving a near death experience because we all know that someone nearly killing you definitely pushes that special button of desire. (We’re also softies for bike-related near-death MC’s.) So, here’s this week’s choice: I almost made you kill me with your bike. – w4m (Clinton […]

Disconnected & Deranged: Manhattan Big Foot Taco Bell Special
October 28th, 2008 · Comments Off on Disconnected & Deranged: Manhattan Big Foot Taco Bell Special
We believe in good dental hygiene as much as anybody, but we have to say that today’s Missed Connection takes love and hygiene to another level. It’s so impressive, in fact, that it cause us to leave Brooklyn for an unheard of venture into…gasp…Manhattan. Check it out: you told me about bigfoot – m4w You […]

Disconnected in Brooklyn: You’re a Public Pisser, but Cute
October 26th, 2008 · Comments Off on Disconnected in Brooklyn: You’re a Public Pisser, but Cute
This week’s Sunday Missed Connection has that perfect combination of attraction and anti-social behavior that we find so compelling. (Also, we can’t resist MC’s that involve pee, poop, farting and/or puking, plus theft.) So, here’s our choice for this week: Apparently you pee in public – w4m – 27 (East Williamsburg) Good, Seed, and Edible […]

And now, we turn to our favorite Sunday feature–and one that we missed dearly during our short absence: our Sunday Brooklyn Craigslist Missed Connection.

Yes, the Pool Parties are McCarren Pool are but a memory (and about 100,000 Flickr photos), but the final Missed Connection they produced may be the best.

August 10th, 2008 · Comments Off on Disconnected in Brooklyn: I Spilled Coffee on Your Baby
For this week’s Sunday Craigslist Missed Connection, we have one that has a kernel of truth in it (somewhere), but is overall, amusing in a bizarre kind of way: I SPILLED COFFEE ON YOUR BABY! – m4w – 26 (Brooklyn) Hello there! This is a total shot in the dark, but I am the gentleman […]

Disconnected in Brooklyn: Antlers?
