I moved back to Brooklyn today

[Nicole0416_718_929_646212]

Yall shytting on fam lmao, I haven't "lived" in Sacramento since I was 9, I'm now 32, and as an adult I've spent two entire summers back there as well as about 5 or 6 different trips and established relationships...

In the time since I last had a Sac "address" at 9, I've lived in LA, Atlanta, metro DC, Memphis, Charlotte, and about 6 or 7 other places...

So I'm not "from" Sacramento in the same sense as those who spent their entire adolescence there, or people who are around my age in their 30s and have never left. But I'm also familiar enough with the city, ton of relationships, it's home and always will be...

This may not exactly be like OP but if he's been to Brooklyn enough to know how to get around without directions in some spots (like me in North Sac), he can claim BK...

New York isn’t Sacramento. I don’t know why you felt the need to bring up that comparison.

There is no such thing as “Brooklyn enough to know” - he’s either from there or he’s not. He is NOT. So let’s not rock with the “considers himself to be from there” conclusion - 3 summers does not make him a NY-er. He literally said he spent 18 years in ATL and lived in Connecticut. he has ties in BK through his family, that does not make him a Brooklyn dude with his “gazillions”.

I’d like to see him tell this same Coli story in person in front of actual Brooklyn dudes - talking about “hey fellas, I’m not gonna hold you, I moved out of Brooklyn when I was 3 years old, and lived in Connecticut after being in ATL for 18 years” - they would slump him off pure stupidity along with his Non NY Nerd babble.

New York isn’t Sacramento.

You're right, Sacramento is better lmao, and you know you aren't talking to someone whose never been to New York before hahaha...

All clowning aside, I was just sharing a relatable experience with OP. You're the only one taking it outta context. To stay on the relatable track though, Sacramentans my age consider me a Sacramentan with "East Coast flavor", people I know can tell I aint been in Sac my whole life, but they can tell I'm from Sac too and I'm rooted and booted in the city...

Most people in real life ain't gonna trip on fam if he know his way around. There's positives to growing up and staying in one place all or most of your life, and there's positives to living outside of your home of record too---->and negatives to both. My girl from Brooklyn but been in Raleigh/NC since she was 12 (she 27 on Thursday). Most people not tripping on this in real life...

The Brooklyn Boy is home:

I was born on 17th street close to Prospect Park but my family moved out when I was 3 when my dad got his job at Phizer, lived in Connecticut, and then Rockland County in NY, and finally Georgia for the last 18 years. But after getting transferred to a new agency for my job in advertising I'm back where I belong

Tell your dad thank you for his service from #pfizergang

Honestly if you ain’t go to elementary, middle school, high school in an area your not from there. Idc where you were born
