Brooklyn, I Love You, But I Would Ditch Your Ass In A Red Hot Minute For Palazzo Chupi

I don't know much about Art. I took a class or two in college, know a bit about the Impressionists, totally dig Elizabeth Peyton, and have bought some cool shit on Etsy.

That's about it.

I DO know, however, that artist Julian Schnabel, is a self-important, cock sucking ego maniac...and I know this because he acts like one every time he opens up his stupid, fat, fucking mouth.

However, Palazzo Chupi kinda makes me want to forgive him for all of it.

Have you seen this fucking place? In the W. fucking village?

We Dare You To Write For Us....

Hey you: you reading this. Wanna write for us?

Here's the thing: we're lazy...and have other jobs, and in case you didn't get the memo: its fucking hard keeping a blog every day and making it interesting/relevant/timely/funny, blah, blah, blah. So we need other people like us (i.e. you).

Basically, you need to be:
* a good writer
* funny
* less annoying than we are (not a very tall order)
* reliable (i.e. if we have to constantly be buggin you for stuff, that's gonna get real old, real fast)
* a BK resident (Park Slope rez is most preferable, but beggars can't be choosers). Or screw it...BK knowledgeable would probs work too.

That's mostly it. YES WE CAN? You in?

Dear Gwyneth Paltrow: Ever Hear of Brooklyn? [and Fuck You]. Love, The Daily News

Daym, Daily News!

Now granted, Gwyneth is:

* Friends with Madonna = v. annoying
* Has a daughter named Apple = v. annoying
* Has a new website called GOOP where she "shares" all her best secrets and "nourishes your inner aspect" (whatever the fuck that means) = v.v. annoying

However, in this particular case, I'm not sure a frothy glass of haterade is *really* warranted, NYDN.

OMFG: LOST, Motherfuckers!!!

My elation concerning the LOST season premiere tonight can only be described as: total fucking insanity.

I'm so excited, y'all...and I just can't hide it.

Our blogging buds at Brooklyn Based are excited too...so much so that they decided to throw a Lost Viewing Party tonight at the Bell House featuring a rad, Lost-a-riffic recap rock band: Previously on Lost.
