A Brooklyn standoff is when multiple roommates want to stay in a rent controlled or super cheap apartment but have grown to hate each other and can absolutely not live together anymore.
Man I hate my roommates so much these days but no one will move out because we all know we couldn't get a better deal. It's turned into a real Brooklyn standoff. standoff stalemate brooklyn roommates rent rentistoodamnhigh
