Brooklynista 

Refers to certain residents of the borough of Brooklyn, NY that are convinced that the entire world revolves around Brooklyn. They are resentful that the majority of the world thinks specifically of Manhattan when the acronym 'NYC' is mentioned. They are Nazi-like in their narrow-minded insistence that Brooklyn is superior to Manhattan (and the other NYC boroughs) in every conceivable way.

Brooklynitis 

When someone moves to Brooklyn and becomes impossible to reach or spend time with. Using the excuse that you’re far away and it’s expensive and time consuming to travel and they feel guilty by inviting you over. Like...bitch it’s a two way street and you’re the sucker who chose to move there.

When someone moves to Brooklyn and never looks back. Makes new friends and barely reaches out. Saying they’re really busy even though they’ve got a healthy social life, but don’t/won’t include you in it.
