does a jessiebmonster met an adam schefter

maybe this is why williamsburg is near pratt? http://newyork.craigslist.org/brk/mis/387205407.html

D-d-d-damn!

wait what

if it's near the world trade center then it's about a block away from the harpoon brewery! jealous.

I had a VS angel bag
^^^ fuck you lady
what the hell is with this trend btw? hi the free bag a cheap horrible underpants store gives you with x amt of purchase is not actually a purse. FURTHERMORE ma, why the hell you want to walk around with a picture of a much hotter than you lady out for the whole world to see.

CIO GET A REAL PURSE

sorry that shit is my new pet peeve, i think 45% of women in dc are sporting that particular "look" currently

that is kind of strange, they do not even make good purses functionally (don't close usually, no pocketses).

other bag peeves:

"i'm not a plastic bag" ---> i am a self-righteous white liberal guilt case

^^^^^^^^^^^^^ otm!

i don't even understand those bags

I AM NOT A MOLESKIN.

I AM NOT THE SMALL CAT

Not being a plastic bag does not eliminate the possibility of being the small cat.

it's like writing I AM NOT AN SUV in huge letters on your hybrid prius

no shit, dude! cio!

i wish i was the small cat.

meow.

how fast and far the plastic bag has fallen from favor

waht

cio that picture

ghost rider i am cancelling your standing invite to my house with that kind of attitude.

do you have mario kart at your house?

i think tom has mario party

Hate HATE the store bag as tote, but I see it all the damn time. Granted for things you're going to, like, never see again that's fine (ie loaning something to a colleague or friend and taking it to meet them in a handy-dandy bag) is prob v good manners, HOWEVER I see tons of women putting, like, their lunches or their office shoes in little shopping bags and GAWD get ONE REAL PURSE that HOLDS THINGS.

more like sausage party amirite? xpost

i'll put stuff in a shopping bag if i need to, esp if it is something like lunch from home that i'm going to toss out the contents of the bag, but yeah the ladies that carry around their shopping bags with like their book and their ipod etc every day--that's kind of weird??? esp since huge purses are in fashion right now, what r u doin

i know, laurel. it's even worse when the person has been using the same one over and over and over again because it's a "status" bag, so it's all creased and manky looking. ok, big deal - you bought a keychain at tiffany a year ago. hey, high roller!

I don't make waves, I hide bags in graves
No cash is earned straight nowadays anyways
Please all you onlookers understand
So make gangway for Carrier Bag Man

I am Carrier Bag Man

[megaphone rant]

When in town I keep head down
Kneel on the croft when the mariah comes round
Fat-assed workmen, I scurry around
There's few good places to hide bags behind

haha lauren, i was thinking of the tiffany's bag too re: ladies with books and ipods in a bag instead of in their purse. it's almost always a tiffany's bag being used 100s of times over, isn't it.

ha, yes. it's almost always tiffany, although you see the occasional marc jacobs, barney's, or prada.

lolol

i don't see as many tiffany's as i do marc jacobs, prada, etc. but yeah, when did this become a fashion trend?!? i have a cloth brooklyn industries bag that they gave me as my shopping bag when i bought something once that i use for carrying things that won't fit in my purse (like shoes or a change of clothes or filez), occasionally. but it's meant to be reused! and not really a status symbol! it's just like one of those cloth grocery bags.

This is the thread where we anticipate and then flip out over how great M.I.A.'s 'Arular' is

cio recently and regretfully ex-gf texting me 'happy birthday for the weekend' three days early, leaving me thinking 'why text three days early?' and other obsessive nonsense.

cows don't oink

Okay that looks nothing like any pastrami I've ever eaten! That looks gorgeous. (xxpost)

Maybe just cos you're not doing it right (xpost)

i want katz's this weekend.

It's okay, kv, I don't think I'm very interested in pastrami either. And I'm DEFINITELY not interested in kosher-keeping delis or traditional "New York" kosher-style delies because I require cheese on my meat sandwiches. It's heathen, I know, but there you have it.

theres a pastrami place down the street from me called OINK ADMINISTRATOR

i want smoked meat

yeah i don't even think any of my posts here are actual cio posts

but hey - cio chasing down interviews with busy people. it is the hardest/most whiley part of journalism/writing ugh

kosher-style delis allow you to pollute your sandwiches with cheese, mayo, and any other debasements that you can think of, laurel.

Bell noooo it's too early to start with the delicious meats GISing!

i took a friend and some of his drunk visiting friends to Katz's. one of the girls was a vegan but she ordered the reuben anyway, she figured it was a once in a life experience. go her!

Now now, don't slander mayo -- it's perfectly kosher with meat, for some reason. Kosher eggs cannot have had any bloodspots on them, however, so one hopes the mayo is compliant.

What's the name of the old school deli that's in a hotel in the forties, west of times square? I thought it was Hotel Einstein but I can't find it online...

anyway MY GOD the soup and sandwiches at that place--!!!

Oh eggs are pareve, that's why.

this thread has reminded me to crak open th' fridddddge and make myself the usual friday dean & deluca deli FATTEY SURPRISE plate

many of my cios are just me being bemused at the world. i'm not much of a complainer these days -- one of my new year's resolutions that i've managed to keep for the most part.

mmm pastrami

i live near sahag's basturma and have figured out where i'm having lunch today. :-)

carnegie deli? that place sucks, is a total tourist trap. tho maybe you're talking about something else, i dunno.

The matzo balls are the size of baseballs. Could be tourist trap but there haven't been many people in it the few times I've been there.

the Carnegie Deli is in the 50s. I forget the name, the one JL means is on 44th or 45th on 8th Ave, lotta Broadway people lunch there.

ok, you guys take this to I Love Gabbneb.
