My fellow snot nosed, runny eyed pollen allerics, allow me to inform you what that dastardly super villain Mike Bloomberg is up to now. That evil SOB is trying to get well intentioned NY'ers to plant a million new trees in the city in order to make our lives a living hell-- forcing us to live a bubble boy, air conditioned existence; keeping the fresh air for his fancy, rich, Claritin peddling friends.
"What is MillionTreesNYC?
MillionTreesNYC, one of the 127 PlaNYC initiatives, is a citywide, public-private program with an ambitious goal: to plant and care for one million new trees across the City's five boroughs over the next decade. By planting one million trees, New York City can increase its urban forest—our most valuable environmental asset made up of street trees, park trees, and trees on public, private and commercial land—by an astounding 20%, while achieving the many quality-of-life benefits that come with planting trees."
What quality-of-life benefit? Rubbing my fucking eyes all summer long, sneezing like a happy jackass, being a human snot factory? Fuck that noise. Some of you Hippies are probably applauding this as some kind of gesture of environmental responsibility and you Neo-Brooklyn douches probably think It'll beautify your neighborhoods, but did you ever think about how selfish you are? What about the poor allergic people who have to live in fear of Bloomy and his Green Gestapo? This whole thing is racist against us and the worst thing to happen to NYC since the smoking ban.
go to milliontreesnyc.org and let them know that we don't need their stinking trees.

I feel ya, Eddie. I'm in Michigan, and the first two 60 degree days in a row when everyone else is throwing open their windows and dancing in the streets, I'm shut in with the AC on and working on my first $100 electric bill of the year and trying to figure out which OTC allergy medication might work for me this year. It finally lets up in late May, just in time for the fucking poplar trees to start shitting their cottony death upon the land. By the time it all ends it's late June and you can't open the windows anyway because it's 94 degrees and 90% humidity.
Maybe Clariten is for closers, too.
Brian, that is my experience as well. Are allergies a new thing? I can't imagine cowboys getting all red eyed over some pollen. Are they and Anglo-American thing exclusively? Those are the only 2 countries I have noticed allergy sufferers. I think most of the world has (or has not) bigger fish to fry.
Maybe it's another unintended consequence of antibiotics, like super germs and staph infections. I've had them since birth and took shots for years. Mine are better now than they used to be but the tree pollen and cats... especially cats... kick my ass.
