I went to Central Park today and settled down in Sheep Meadow with a big group of friends, my dog (Goya, a Jack Russell Chihuahua mix and the ultimate babe-magnet), and a lot of food and wine. Two hours later, a sweaty park employee stumbled over and told me that dogs weren’t allowed on the lawn. Of course, the only signs stating this were about 4 inches wide and placed near your feet at one of a dozen small entrances to the meadow. I had to leave my friends to their football and feasting and take Goya back downtown to Grandma’s, where I slept.

(+3 rating, 3 votes)So I’m taking the red-eye flight from JFK to New Orleans on Sunday night. I spent 3 days in the city for my bachelor party, and consumed enough alcohol and other substances to kill most land animals. Despite this overindulgence, I did not vomit…not once.
Twenty minutes into my 3+ hour flight, the 10 year old boy sitting directly in front of me vomits all over himself, his father, and the chair in front of him. The entire cabin smelled like Keith Richards for the duration of the flight, which was, of course, late.

(+3 rating, 3 votes)I just quit my job in order to move to New Orleans, live cheaply, and finish my novel before I go to the Peace Corps. There are a lot of risks, namely money and health insurance. I was being very careful about money, but then two things happened:
1) The crown on my only cavity/root canal fell off. I swallowed it and didn’t want to go through my own shit to recover it. It was only 4 yrs old and survived the breaking of my jaw by 6 youths. Cost=$400. Verdict=Shitty dentistry.
2) New York State audited my taxes and found that in 2006, I inappropriately claimed a credit of $550 for tuition at a graduate program, when that credit only applies to undergraduate courses. Interest of 9% (higher than any bank account) brought this up to $655! They tracked me down at my grandmother’s house 2 days before I leave my job. Verdict=Don’t use TaxAct. Get an accountant. Go off the grid. And fuck the police!
And fuck David Patterson too!

(+3 rating, 3 votes)I love how the MTA is going my way. Last time I checked I wasn’t taking a train to a mani/pedi spa. If I’m sitting next to you, I don’t want your clipped nails in my bagel – or worse, embedded in my cream cheese only to be discovered two stops later. The only click/click I want to hear is the sound of wheels over rail. The only chewing I want to witness is a train conductor ripping you a new one…or the Beard Papa that you bring on board. The only -cure I want to see is an end to the A shuttle bus.
I’m seeing something, and I’m saying something.

(+3 rating, 3 votes)People who lock their bikes to private property, like for instance the bars that hold up an awning of a building. Public property, that’s the code, street signs, curly bars, all fair game! Related: namby-pamby denizens of Park Slope who ride their bicycles up the Union Street sidewalk. You all are the ones who make people hate cyclists!

(+2 rating, 4 votes)You’ll pardon the annoying expression (and if you won’t, you can complain about it): I’m a twentysomething. I consider myself to be a particularly patient twentysomething, but this week sort of tested my limits of patience.
I started working a part-time job in a small company run by two middle aged women. They are very nice women. I like them. They are terrible at the internet.
One of them still uses AOL, so every e-mail I get from her tells me about my credit score. They were constantly mailing back and forth MS Word documents and had multiple copies of each (one never bought MS Office for her Mac so she was converting back and forth from Pages. Really!? Pages?!). To solve their problems, I showed them Google docs. Now I get e-mails every 10 minutes (half of them offering to get my my credit score in 2 easy steps) with subjects like, “can’t find the google doc???!!!!!!!”
They also asked me to send a fax. Faxes. Are. Stupid. The icing on the cake? Their fax machine is broken.
Have a great weekend!

(+2 rating, 2 votes)When I registered for this website, the red TOO SHORT bar underneath the password never went away, even when I made my password ridiculously long. Then, when I tried to submit this complaint, the Post it box wasn’t clickable anymore. Coincidence? Or Stalinist conspiracy?
