Actually, they're methheads. But thanks for asking.

Come on—who does crack these days? If you're going to start a NYC real estate listings website targeting the neighbors of drug addicts (?), at least know your local hot drugs.

Some days, when I'm drunk and melancholy, I really miss the Dinkins administration...

Like Nina, my attention went imediately to the "base4space" name, which makes for an unfortunate combination, because "basehead" and "crackhead" are synonymous terms.

Usage reference:
And Dr. Dre said, "Slim Shady, you're a basehead!" (Uh-uh!)
"So why's your face red? Man you wasted!"
-- (From "My Name Is" by Eminem)

And smoking crack is really just freebasing without the final ether step.

So the ad is a bit weird on that level, and now everyone here thinks I'm a crackhead. But I'm not. Really.

Meth may in fact be the new crack, but from the ads I see here, it appears that real estate is the new crack.
