If You Own A Snuggie, I Automatically Like You

Dear Daily News Staff Writer Erica Pearson,

Should you ever wish to hit the streets of Park Slope again in your Snuggie, FIPS would be more than happy to join you. Or...uhm...follow you around and hurl insults at you.

Also, what is your feeling on the Snuggie vs. Slanket controversh?

Yours in snuggitude,

Fucked in Park Slope

Marty Markowitz Is Not A Member of the Twitterverse

In case you missed the controversh last week, the Twittersphere was all abuzz because quirky borough prez Marty Markowitz *seemed* to be on the scene with his very own brand spankin new Twitter account.

Fake Twitter Marty even put out a call for new slogans for Brooklyn (and SHIT, were we gonna have fun with that one).

Of course, the whole damn thing turned out to be a sham, and though Marty thinks Twitter is a fab way to communicate, he's never Tweeted in his life.  So, Twitter pulled his account down, and now we're all left standing around like twidiots.

So for those who were already hard at work on their new fangled Brooklyn slogans, please feel free to leave em in the comments below. 

[Personally, we liked @BrooklynBased's suggestion best: FUCK MANHATTAN].

Did You Lose Your Shiba Inu?

(This is NOT a pic of the actual dog, but in case you don't know what the breed looks like, I wanted to post).

I read about this on Brooklynian, and I've been sort of nauseous since with worry

WE FOUND A SHIBA INU ON 3/1: he's a sesame male (we think) about 25 pounds. We found him on President and 6th. He spent an hour under a parked car while we tried to corner. He was very skittish at first but he's calmed down since. He is even trying to mooch food off the table. He is obviously somebody's dog.

If anyone has scoop on who this dog might belong to, please get in touch with the nice peeps who found him.

Bar Toto = V. Fucking Good

This isn't so much a review, because:

A. Though I *did* bring my camera, the battery was dead and I didn't take any pics.

B. I got high on the walk over drunk at dinner and didn't pay close enough attention to do a full on review.

HOWEVER, I am here to tell you that Bar Toto totally fucking rocks.
