Dan loves wicker, and I love stripes

From Gothamist (who got it from Curbed)
The mysterious case of The Penistrator—an unidentified “snowfitti” vandal who’s been drawing phallic symbols on snowy cars parked in the East Village this winter—has taken a shocking, unexpected turn. EV Grieve, who regrets that he lacks the “resources to properly track this fiend,” has learned that the perpetrator may be none other than Sixth Sense star and NYU student Haley Joel Osment. TMZ posted this photo of a snow-fingered Osment earlier this month, with the headline “I See D***, People.” Guess we can close the file on that one!
So we were watching Arrested Development today
So we were watching the episode caled “Pubic Relations” and I got so pissed that I couldn’t identify what else I had seen the actress who played the Klimpy’s waitress in. (No matter how many times I write that sentence it comes out sounding wrong. fuck it.) And fuck you, IMDB for not having her listed in the episode’s cast.
After some more googling, I found out where she’s from.
SHE’S FUCKING “MOONBEAM” FROM ‘PCU.’ YEAHHH
Her name is Becky Thyre
copyright lesson
learn copyright law via short clips of disney movies. so clever! it sounds boring but it’s really awesome.
from michael g- thanks
another brooklyn blog…
BROOKLYN 11211. this one reports on development and happenings in williamsburg, greenpoint, and bushwick. it’s kind of like newyorkshitty with fewer pictures and more neighborhood news and politics. i liked this picture of redhook and the reports on bk bikelanes.
Whoa there dude
I’m going to the Black Cat tonight. Maybe I can meet a nice guy like this one.
Chicken Lays Giant Egg
Well, that about sums it up. Watch it here. Thanks Alison for sending this to me.

This site is no longer being updated, but it’s kind of soothing to scroll through.
How to Stump Anti-Abortionists With One Question
Saw this blog post and thought it was an interesting angle on the abortion issue. Basically, no protesters havea good answer to “If abortion was illegal, what should be done with the women who have illegal abortions?”
Betty Crocker through the years
She really looks like a mega-bitch circa 1936.. jeeez Betty, have some frosting and perk up a little! More from Jezebel here.
Blog of the day: New York Shitty
newyorkshitty.com
I like this blog because it features dog shit and general happenings around my neighborhood and others in BK (but mostly Greenpoint). Here is the about page…
About
As you can probably deduce from the title of this blog, I live in Green Brownpoint, Brooklyn. During my one block trek to the Franklin Corner Store one April day (in 2006) to get a sandwich, I was astonished at the sheer quantity of dog shit I encountered.
Green Street is not the easiest sidewalk to negotiate: the sidewalks are uneven and pock-marked with holes. Dodging piles of dog shit every five feet does not make this task any easier, much less when carrying delicious Cuban sandwiches. It was during this adventure through Poopland that I had the following epiphany:
1. This is ridiculous.
2. I wonder if the people who see fit to use my block as a pissoir would like it if I took a shit in the middle of their living room? Probably not.
3. This is like walking through a fucking mine field, so maybe…
4. if Queen Noor (and Lady Diana before her) can lobby against the use of land mines, perhaps I can raise awareness about the plague of unattended dog shit in my neighborhood. Call me the Dog Shit Queen of Greenpoint New York Shitty. I’ve been called worse.
What you can expect this blog to feature:
1. Dog shit. When I see dog shit I will:
A. Take a picture of it
B. Make note of the date and the location of said bowel movement2. Generate “Crap Maps” as I see fit. These maps will reflect the data I compile (as outlined in #1) and will (hopefully) provide an easy reference for anyone who wants to know where worst (s)hit areas are— and perhaps even where the worst offenders live. It is prudent to assume that if these dog owners are too lazy to clean up their own dog shit, they probably do not take much time walking their dogs in the first place.
3. If and/or when I find a particularly choice specimen (READ: a particularly LARGE, sculptural or just plain repulsive bowel movement), it will be showcased as “The Dung of the Day”.
I am accepting submissions from the public. Greenpoint, Park Slope (as if), Williamsburg, Bushwick, Sunset Park, Bay Ridge, Red Hook (especially Red Hook— I like Red Hook almost as much as I like Greenpoint!) or anywhere else in New York Shitty.
It’s much more than dogshit though, it’s funny signs, featured restaurants, neighborhood gossip, cat photos, etc.
Rib cage suitcase is ugly
just letting you know that now you can travel in ugly style!
I love Street Anatomy
Loving America doesn’t mean putting it on your walls
WARNING: Red, white and blue isn’t a good design scheme.
LOVE this dress and yay for Jason Wu
It’s a Cinderella story. In the Advocate, Wu says dressing Michelle was a “long shot.” Aw he is so young and great and Michelle looked BEAUTIFUL. Also in just one day, Michelle Obama wore stuff made by a Cuban-American woman and a 26 year old gay Asian dude. Minorities, CHECK!
my new screensaver is pretty colors for food
I took a walk around DUMBO this weekend and I obviously loved the Tattfoo Tan mural there. Pretty colors! But I didn’t know they actually represented healthy foods you should be eating as part of a balanced diet.
Anyway, now there’s a screensaver. For free. Download it bitches. Download it here: http://tattfoo.com/
We think http://www.crapwelike.wordpress.com is written by a woman (68%).
thank you genderanalyzer.com
you too can have your blog genderanalyzed for free- i dont know how it came up with a masculine/feminine quotient within 3 seconds but it did…. and it was wrong….
but i guess thats why it only has a 59% success rate
now you try!
Watch this without sound
this is awesome, but the soundtrack is terrible. F- for sound, A+ for TUMBLING

I saw Cradle Will Rock when it first came out in the late 90s and I don’t think I knew who Jack Black or Tenacious D was. The movie is on channel 11 right now- everyone should watch or netflix or something. I’m hungover and enjoying my couch time jfyi.

DC gets some love in the NY Times
A nice article how our dining scene is picking up. Too bad they spell Capitol Hill wrong at one point and no one refers to H St. as Lower Capitol Hill. I’ve eated at Gillian Clark’s old restraunt and it had a lot of annoying rules and signs, but the eggs were amazing.
