Brooklyn Tweets of the Week: Nothing but Nets, wait where does Eric Adams live?
A roundup of (some of) our favorite locally sourced tweets for the week ending June 11
This week in Brooklyn, the Nets dominated, there was an eensy mistake involving a bus and a brownstone and OMG, did you hear it rained? Our tweeters this week were all over these topics and more. If you see something, say something: Be sure to tag us if you see anything that should be noted next week.

This bus lives there now. It has more claim to Brooklyn residency than Eric Adams. https://t.co/3eXyw47KoB

I’ve seen enough. The Brooklyn Nets are going to the NBA Finals. And Kevin Durant is the best player in the world.

an incredible thing about Twitter is how quickly the entire world is forced to learn it is raining in Brooklyn

Sometimes when the bus goes by I give the Brooklyn Bridge the finger. I love it but it needs to remember who’s in charge.

On my way to Bushwick can’t wait to loudly talk about how it is geographically still on Long Island until they all rip me apart like hipster dawn of the dead.

If I tell my therapist I used my night off in New York to race my Chevy Malibu rental car against random dudes on the Brooklyn Queens Expressway do you think she’s gonna accuse me of continuing to medicate with risky behavior or will we celebrate a mutual passion for Motorsport?

Someone in the Fort Greene area has been blasting Elvis Crespo’s greatest hits since the morning and I respect that kind of energy on a Monday even if I don’t understand it
