spidey at your service


so much for web slinging, spiderman has a new form of transportation. and this type can benefit you as well! i present to you: spiderman on a rickshaw.

for a small monetary donation you and your sweetheart can take a romantic ride down st. marks in this cozy bike taxi driven by one of america's greatest superheros. and if you're as lucky as this couple, he will even pop a wheelie in front of cafe mogador.

saving the world one buggy ride at a time. thank you peter parker, gotham city salutes you.

cat in pound cake.


seriously. this is what we witnessed at the bodega saturday night. as if the food at those places isn't questionable enough, the folks at roger's garden are allowing this feline to prance around the place.

and if it's sitting in the pre-packaged pound cake who KNOWS where else pretty kitty's been. go ahead, try the egg salad. i dare you.

the employees at this place seemed ultimately fine with the issue, some kind of weird "take your cat to work" thing, or else the cat sitter fell through.

thankfully i was only there to withdraw money from one of those lovely atm's with the ridiculous $5 fees.

spotted on houston. meow.

santa baby.



sorry for the lack of posting, but it was christmas vacation! i'll start out with some belated christmas spirit...

spotted en-route to nyc at the will rogers world airport, chris kringle in lounge wear. apparently santa decided to forgo his sleigh post-christmas for american airlines. he also traded in his standard suit for some red sweats, a monogrammed 'S' baseball cap, and appeared 50 pounds less jolly. is this the REAL santa on a flight back to the north pole via o'hare? fugitive in disguise? brad pitt?

regardless, i believe it was because of this man that i made my 10 minute connection in chicago. a TRUE christmas miracle.

proof that even in oklahoma, things are not always OK.

only in gotham city.


when i saw this beauty parked on broadway, my initial thought was "batmobile." but then i realized this car was obviously playing homage to the delorean a la back to the future. so sleek. and who wouldn't love those convenient gullwing doors?

-5 points because in reality it was a hyundai and marty mcfly was not the driver. +10 points because it had subs and was blasting "empire state of mind" so loud i could hear it inside of topshop.

spotted in soho.

boy meets geisha girl.


oh look, it's just your typical all-american couple out for a cozy mexican din in meatpacking. girl in full on geisha wear, guy a weak version of boy george complete with a (look close) blue sequin yarmulke.

perhaps acceptable on halloween but this time of year the only excusable costumes are limited to tacky christmas sweaters and santa hats.

love may be blind, but i am not.

textsfromlastnight.com part II
















saturday nov. 14
2:37 am: white suds
2:57 am: you are beautiful
3:07 am: gah.
4:09 am: S
4:10 am: how's you night? (a little late, for that don't you think?)

please note that this was a one sided conversation. good times with white suds.

thanks to rumor on the street for getting blown up with the hot texts this weekend. names blurred out to protect the belligerent.

a tribute to textsfromlastnight.com



you know what the number one thing not ok about this text is? we had to google what a shiatsu was.

group responses included:
"is that a dog?"
"foreign country?"
"is he jewish?"

apparently it's a massage. who knew?

also, look twice because if you've never seen a sprint rumor now is your chance. they're a rare breed on the cell phone market.
