Jonathan Safran Foer Won An Award!

Only it was a Moby Award for "Most Annoying Performance by an Author in a Book Trailer."

BWHAAAAAAAAAAA.

Now we wrote about this book trailer mooooonths ago. And srsly, if you watch it, you will feel compelled to scratch your eyes out, put your eyeballs in a bowl and then eat em with a spoon....it's *that* bad. But now I'm actually starting to feel sorry for this annoying schmo. Cause a few years ago everyone loved the shit outta him, and now all everyone does is hate his ass and trade JSFisms...shit, we even have one in our own FIPS diktionary.

Maybe we should invent a new word? Foerdom: After moving through a variety of emotional stages, the act of becoming so bored with JSF and JSF news, one actually begins to feel sorry for the dude.

Jonathan Saran Foer *Probably* Irons His Jeans

BWHAAAAAAAHAAAAAA!

"If smug were an outfit, this would be it: "square glasses, a fitted black jumper and jeans that look as if they might have been ironed." [FT]

Indeed.

Park Slope Netflix Queues Look Like This

1. Rachel Getting Married
2. Milk
3. Doubt
4. The Wrestler
5. Burn After Reading
6. Vicky Cristina Barcelona
7. The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
8. Slumdog Millionaire
9. Revolutionary Road
10. Mad Men: Season 1: Disc 1

Way to be completely fucking predictable, Park Slope!--not a single mainstream movie in the bunch! (I mean, maybe you could argue Benjamin Button, though I still say its borderline). Surprised not to see Food, Inc there, though (right Food Coop-n-JSF?).

Remember When Jonathan Safran Foer Said Park Slope Restaurants Were 'Miserable?'

Right, cause we totally do.

But now that JSF has a book out-n-all (and needs to plug that shit however he can), he seems to have had a change of heart. Not about eating cute little fur baby cows, chickens and pigs, of course...but about Park Slope cuisine!

Here's what he had to say about his favorite veggie burger:

“[Bonnie's] veggie burger is fucking great!"

Whoa.

N-I-C-E, JSF! Lettin loose with the expletives! What's next, a guest post on NY Shitty?

In any event, we likey.

In Which We Finally Get Over Our Crush on Jonathan Safran Foer

We still have a bit of a soft spot in our hearts for Park Slope author Jonathan Safran Foer cause he interned for us-n-shit, but ever since his "Park Slope restaurants are miserable" comment, we've kinda been keeping our distance. And, yeah: we've definietly taken notice of some of the recent haterade floating around the interwebs toward him and his new book Eating Animals.

Without naming names, everyone mostly hates it.
