Your Doorman Knows You Have Herpes

There really is almost nothing that I miss about living in NYC. I swear...I LOVE it here in the BK.

But if I had to either name one thing I missed or get murdered (do you remember when you used to play those assinine games as a kid?), I would have to say that I miss our doormen.

Who Gives A Shit: Could You Live Anywhere Else?

OK, in case you didn't notice that Meredith (and Allison) were pretty much writing alllll the posts around here for the past couple of days, they were. Cause yeah: my ass was in Austin for SXSW getting ed-u-macated about the internet-n-shit.

Anyway, my little sidetrip to Austin got me thinking: would it be possible for me to ever live there? Like outside of NYC? Somewhere else?

For me, my answer is pretty much no. NYC has ruined me for any other city (with the exception of mebbe mebbe Los Angeles). And I'm not counting anywhere else outside of the U.S., cause duh: I could totally move to Florence with no problemo tomorrow and not even think twice about it.

But I'm wondering what's up with you guys: Could you/would you live anywhere else? If so, where?

Open House NYC: Best in Bad Local TV

I stumbled upon my architect husband watching this Open House NYC shit Sunday morning (WNBC, 8:30am), and it was hard for me to tear my eyes from the realtor's cleavage long enough to see the awesomely overdone house she was hokking (sp?) hocking.

I LOVE this show. Love it!

Have you seen this? Do you love it too? What's your favorite bad local tv show?

Passive Agressive Wifi

Ok, this is pretty fucking hilarious slash brilliant: some disgruntled apartment dwellers throughout NYC have taken to updating their wifi network handles with passive aggressive messages for their neighbors. Shit like "yourdogneedstostopbarking," "stopstealingmynewyorktimes or my personal fave "Really?Curry?Again?"

The hope, of course, at these these annoying ass neighbors will see the message when they're loggin on with their own computers.

One commenter confessed: “I update my wireless network SSID like most people update their Facebook page."

HAAA!

I am so stealing this idea immeds.

Sex(less) In the Slope

I happened upon this little item yesterday on New York Mag’s Daily Intel about just how much New Yorkers hear their neighbors having sex:
 
“About two-thirds of city residents say they regularly hear their neighbors having sex, according to a survey from real-estate website Brick Underground.”
 
And yes, BREEDERS are apparently fucked if we do and fucked if we don’t.
 
"At this point I'll trade hearing sex for hearing the results of their sex. I really need to find a child-free building."

I was momentarily titillated (no, not literally).
