Re: “Sex, Love, and Brooklyn: Cum On My Tits and Other Sex Habits of the Highly Effective Man”
Why does a sex positive, self-proclaimed cad tell you to wait!? To weed out fellows such as himself? I'm confused.
Re: “The Network Shows This Fall That Might Actually Not Be Terrible”
ah, too many Seths. I'd rather see Seth Green in Joss Whedon's show. You could add him to that photo to make it symmetrical.
Re: “The Network Shows This Fall That Might Actually Not Be Terrible”
I believe that's Seth Green in MacFarlane's show, not Seth Rogen, which I think downgrades the show from "awesome!/oh well" a la Faris on CBS from just the normal "whew, I watch too much TV anyway."
Re: “The Network Shows This Fall That Might Actually Not Be Terrible”
My hopes for S.H.I.E.L.D. would be considerably higher if they could have gotten their shit together and at least fucking centered everyone on the crest thing in the background of their press photo. Terrible.
Re: “Sex, Love, and Brooklyn: Cum On My Tits and Other Sex Habits of the Highly Effective Man”
Love this. And especially love point 4. I used to be all about men going down on me until I realised that for some it's very wrapped up in this weird egotistical "I want to make you come to prove how manly I am" thing. That pressure to come to turn him on just fucks the whole thing up.
Re: “M.I.A. to Perform at Super Bowl, Releases Super Vapid New Single”
I maybe wrong but isn't this song about the women to drive movement in Saudi Ariabia...and not car sex? I'm pretty sure this is about women's rights.
Re: “Don't Move to New York”
its so much don't move there, Obviously the Internet is permanently down in NYC as NO ONE ANSWERS E-MAILS... especially Galleries
Re: “Are Artists Gentrifying Sunset Park?”
FYI, Nars didnt/doesnt have a net lease. ICA pays the RE taxes, water/sewer, delivered to NARS a clean, painted loft, with functioning electric service, light fixtures and bathrooms. ICA provides, heat, elevator service, 24 hour security and NARS had a good deal in the process. Maybe they shouldnt have expanded the way they did... Maybe their model is wrong. Dont blame the LL every time. Unfortunately, things never get cheaper.
Re: “9 Brooklyn Bartenders Talk Booze”
Yeah, who's the third interviewee? Y'all didn't identify who he/she is or where he/she works.
Re: “Celebrating 10 Years: The Institutions of New Brooklyn”

Re: “9 Brooklyn Bartenders Talk Booze”
Given that my signature drink to order happens to be the apparently-dreaded LIIT, I'd wager that the *real* reason these guys and gals revile it is that, put bluntly, half of them wouldn't know how the Dickens to make a proper one. When I ask for one, and either get a weird look (as if I'd just made a lurid proposition), or see her/him reach nervously for some dog-eared notebook, I hold up my hand and switch to a G&T. Really, guys, I'm not here for coolness points - I just want a drink.
Re: “Three Sisters: The Chores of Childhood”
It would be unique to have Chinese doc makers come here and film the life of an inner-city fam, preferably the US-standard "single mom" and her brood, which would probably make China's citizens thankful for the way of life as they live it.

Re: “9 Brooklyn Bartenders Talk Booze”

Re: “May's Must-See Exhibitions”
Looks like nyc is a bore except for all the cool people.

Re: “A Traveler's Nightmare: Couchsurfing in NYC”
i host many couchsurfers and rarely give keys or let people stay while im at work. get real Peter Geoghegan.sometimes i have time off as i am a commercial fisherman and tree cutter so i have the luxury of being able to show my guest the area, but to arrive with the attitude that your article implies, is ridiculous indeed. as a frequent host and an occasional guest i think you sound like someone i would possibly invite to keep on your merry way after the second night. couchsurfing is not a hotel, hostel, resort, or welfare program. pitch in, make conversation, food, bring drinks, ask questions, etcetera.... if you don't like where your at do some typing and find another host. doubt your old lady will be around next time as she has probably realized you are an inadequate planner as well as a whiner and a self entitled kook.
Re: “Why City Composting Should Start in Brooklyn, NOT Staten Island”
We are green. As a life long resident of Staten Island I have been composting for 20 years. I have 3 active compost and I collect waste from my neighbors and many of the fancy health food stores in Brooklyn! My father began commuting to work by bicycle in 1978, a tradition I have upheld since 1998. Generalizations and stereotypes don't help anyone.
So please don't resort to Staten Island bashing to make a point. It's unbecoming at best and a stale leftover of pre-Sandy New York.
Re: “Gentrification in Williamsburg: Is Your Neighborhood Next?”
Williamsburg looks great now.
