Pickles: Briny Little Hang-Over Cures
When I woke up on Saturday, I did not feel so good.
This is sort of how I looked.
I drank a bottle of malbec + a few glasses of whatever else I managed to pour into my cup. It hit me pretty hard I guess because I could barely get out of bed the next morning. My boyfriend and my friend who had crashed on my living room floor were up and ready for breakfast. I was in the fetal position on the floor. Somehow, I managed to get into the car and we headed for Morty’s Delicatessen on Wisconsin Ave. My bus goes past this place everyday, but I had never noticed it before. It looks like a hole-in-wall from the outside, but it’s actually a pretty big restaurant.
The Examiner: A Lil’ Racism For Your Morning Commute
I try to stay away from opinion columns in papers for the most part…usually because I’m such an asshole I disagree with everything anyone has an opinion about. But this caught my eye this morning…
Browner is an environmental radical – and a socialist (seriously)
By Examiner Editorial
- 1/8/09
No, it’s not the President-elect, at least not explicitly. Conservatives are often accused of scaremongering when they claim left-wing environmentalists are actually socialists hiding behind green disguises. But with Carol Browner, incoming President Barack Obama’s freshly appointed Assistant to the President for Energy and Climate Change – the so-called White House “Climate Czar” - there is no question about the socialism.
Carol Browner: Alleged Socialist
Barak Obama: Alleged browner
DC: A Great Place To Be Or A Hell-Hole Infested With Pretentious D-Bags, Homeless Drunks, And Tourists?
At a party in Virginia over the weekend, the three Destroy DCers were asked a very interesting question: “Why is your blog called ‘Destroy DC?’ Do you hate DC?” The two original destroyers responded “No. We meant ‘destroy’ in a good way…like we want to have lots of fun. And we think it sounds cool.” What I think they meant to say was “we want to blow DC’s FUCKING MIND by having such a good time. “
This is not what we meant.
However, after pondering the question for a few days, I’ve come to the conclusion that I am undecided about this city. There are lots of other blogs that have made up their minds, and I have been checking them out to see which side to join.
Stay-At-Home Mom Who Never Rides The Bus Is Pissed About Ads On Bus
In the Examiner this morning, there was a rebuttal to the “Why believe in a god?” ads. The focus was on this house wife with three kids who was just so darn mad about the ads, she decided to do something about it! Her and some Christian friends got together, including the Center for Family Development, and are now going to run their own ad campaign! Their ad asks “Why Believe? Because I created you and I love you, for goodness’ sake.” They raised enough good ol’ godly money to pay for four weeks of ads on/in 200 buses.
Is it just me or is this fucking ridiculous?
She's cooking an atheist in that oven.
Christmas Is Getting Creepy
As I mentioned yesterday, Christmas is just getting weird. People are dead, my mom is crying, and now…there’s this…
SANTA? Whaaaaaat?
This is the new Santa…oh excuse me CLAUS…according to this stupid phone.
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE, PALM CENTRO?
DC Hates God And I Couldn’t Be Happier
Yesterday I was riding the bus and I noticed this ad:
Is this what Santa really looks like?
When I first saw it, I said to myself “WTF?” Maybe I’m just an idiot but I was confused, mostly because I’ve never seen an ad questioning Christmas/Christianity/organized religion in such a way. But my confusion was cleared up this morning when I picked up a copy of The Examiner. Front page: RAISING HELL OVER BUS AD-Complaints pour in about atheists’ campaign.
Coincidence That I Had To Sign A Non-Disclosure And Confidentiality Agreement The Day After My Last Post Was Published?
I think not.
In case anyone was wondering, that is why it was deleted.

When You’re Poor, You Might As Well Buy Some Cave-Aged Gruyere, A Baguette And Some Olives And Eat Like You’re Not
Right now, I am in the process of trying to get a post published on Brightest Young Things about my disdain for Whole Foods. But really, I can’t help but love it. First of all, it is right across the street from my home. Second, the cheeses and the olive bar just call to me.
Anyone who was my friend, or even just a classmate in Syracuse knows that I love cheese. For a few months, it was pretty much my only identifiable trait. I wrote papers about cheese, worked in the cheese department of our amazing grocery store WEGMANS (miss U <3), had a cheese party, researched it…you get the idea. I even read this book. It cost me $20. Look at that guy’s fucking hat.
I am douche bag by default for reading this.
Stussy@Adams Morgan: Yay!
I have no idea what this flyer is all about, but at least you know that they have a Fall 2008 collection.
I was watching a Wall Street Journal video and discovered that there’s a Stussy in Adams Morgan, which opened April of this year. YAY!
