Yet, I intentionally spelled it "bklyn" not "Brooklyn" nor after the original "Breukelen" but with a creatively urban distinguishing factor that you recognized as Brooklyn, NY... But like a lot of folks that either don't know this city, this place, or choose to hate on it for whatever reason, you sought a snarky technical factor to play one up on my post. Why don't you first do a search for 'bklyn' or follow the links above and see which Brooklyn turns up on Wikipedia, it's the borough in New York City, NEW YORK STATE. You have to follow the 'disambiguation' link on the Brooklyn Wiki page in order to find the other cities who bear the same name of Brooklyn, New York or perhaps the Dutch, Breukelen, carried to other reaches of the US when establishing those towns after New York. As well must you follow the disambiguation link to find the other Brooklyn-s in Africa or the Pacific regions carried there by the Dutch. So for your Scrooging-up a 'Christmas thread', and for your clarity alone, I restated in a follow up post so you'd know I meant NY, New York State.
