  1. Ya know, just when Gloucester tries to climb out of the heroin gutter and show outsiders the goodness, a title like,….”it doesn’t suck” comes along!
    Amazing.

    Now, is that title supposed to match the classy home in the photo? With that title, I can only imagine the person who took it stayed there for a night because a classy family he knows rented or ownes it and allowed this person to enjoy it before trashing it’s beauty with such a title of it!

  2. I can only LOL at this comment.

    It’s a common phrase among today’s youth and not meant in any sort of derogatory way.

    Actually it’s more of a compliment.

    If it offends you I’ll gladly refund the price of your subscription.

  3. Again, common phrase among today’s youth. How sad it’s accepted and carried on by adults.

    I was born and raised, if you appreciate something and respect it, you speak of it in the same manner as how you feel.

    Awesome! Beautiful! Lovely! Mint! Unreal! Incredible! Cool! Wow! Unreal, but, never, ever “It doesn’t suck!”

    Just shows a lack of class on the part of the people using “it doesn’t suck” when describing anything nice.

    I feel it Shows they are not used to nice things or places, therefore they are not used to properly expressing themselves.

  4. Joey –

    Your paper is informative and fun but at this point, I would appreciate a refund. The whole “it doesn’t suck” just spoiled it for me.

    I am sure you and I both have people who agree with us, so let’s just agree to disagree.

    Have a great summer! I wish you the best with your BLOG! I am sure it’s going to continue to be fun, interesting, and so on and so forth!

    PS Never been a big fan of the youth grabbing their crotches when an attractive female youth walks by either. Just me though. Wow, she’s hot or pretty just seems less,….”hoodish.”

  5. What is hilarious about your comment is that I practically grew up in this house with the boys that lived there before the current owner.

    I’m afraid that if you don’t get the fun in the saying “It doesn’t suck” when a nice boat goes by or pointing out a gorgeous house then you would be utterly horrified by the language we use here at the dock.

    Your refund check is “in the mail”

    I appreciate your comments though and hope you too have a fucking fantastic summer.

  6. Awesome response Joe. It’s not easy to deal with someone completely lacking a sense of humor! I was trying to think of when young men last grabbed their crotches when a girl walked by. Did they do that in ‘Grease’ or something? I hear that construction workers even whistle sometimes!

    I hope the girls are well, they’re always looking happy in their pictures. Ours is getting big quicker than I imagined, laughing, cooing, holding her head up, great stuff!

  7. Thanks Rob.

    Just to let folks know what is going on behind the scenes someone has been a busy bee sending off comments to the blog from the same IP address telling me how classless I am. I’m fine with my level of class or lack thereof.

    I posted the first couple of this person’s comments crapping all over me but stopped once I discovered that the person was sending comments from the same computer stating how they agreed with the other person making the derogatory comments from the very same IP address and email.

    This is a fun place with people that love Gloucester, I’m not gonna turn it into a bitchfest.

    It’s simple.

    If you don’t like my level of class you don’t have to visit.

  8. Joe, I totally love your “it doesn’t suck” series. Keep them coming!

    You know what I say about trying to talk sense to idiots — it’s like trying to teach a pig to sing, it’s a waste of time and it just aggravates the pig.

  12. Hello there, Joey!

    Love your blog page. Really appreciate the piece you did on my Sisters’ shop on Rocky Neck! “Amazing” thinks there’s nothing like free advertising.

    Don’t have to tell you not to sweat the the stuck-up, pretentious dame that tried to make a federal case out of “It doesn’t suck!” Right on and good Job!. I doubt you’ll hear from her again. I’m Brenda’s Brother, and we surely aprreciated your time and work! Take care.

    As for the poster who apparently feels the need to play silly games (talking to her/himself). you did the right thing. You didn’t suck, but he/she sure did. LOL
