- YeahSureWhyNot 7y agothe article is talking about the Levittown in PA. btw fuck Hicksville, its overcrowded and has turned into Jackson Heights of Queens. Try driving thru Hicksville at 5PM
- kissickas 7y agoAh thanks for the correction re: PA. I saw that they were New York Sicilians and didn't pay attention to the fact that I didn't recognize the mall's name.
- YeahSureWhyNot 7y agodo I automatically get downvotes from HN mods for saying 'fuck' ? are you guys sharpening your censorship skills before YC opens china office?:)))
- dang 7y agoUsers downvoted. No mods were involved. I imagine they downvoted because of the snarky swipe you took at some other place, but who can say? One thing though: please don't break the guidelines by going on about downvotes like this. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
