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!

I Almost Got Beat Up At The 9:30 Club By Two Girls Who Thought Minus The Bear=Stripper Music
Seriously. These two chicks were a little TOO into the band. They were tossing their heads like fucking horses and rubbing their hands all over their bodies. And I couldn’t help but stare, horrified, while attempting to maintain a safe distance away from their gyrating. Then, the extra slutty blonde one told her brunette friend that I was a snob and that she was going to punch me in the face. For about 20 minutes of the show, they just stood there and loudly discussed how they could physically hurt me. Instead of punching me, the brunette thought it would be a good idea to dance closer to me…her hair was almost in my mouth. YIKES. Read the rest of this entry »
It Is Kind Of Depressing That The Year I Was Born Is Now Considered “Vintage”
So, I love vintage shopping. I’ve been looking for some neat places around D.C., but I guess I haven’t really tried hard enough. However, I did come across this website, vintageswank.com. The store, Vintage Swank, is located in Front Royal, Virginia, which is about an hour from D.C. so I’ll never actually go there. Thankfully, you can buy stuff on their website.
Is Going To Your 9-5 Hung Over A Rite-Of-Passage Into The Adult World, Or A Throwback To College Stupidity?
Let me tell you something, data entry is not easy when all the keys on your keyboard are blurring together and you have a legitimate fear of throwing up all over your desk.
But going to the Ra Ra Riot show at the Black Cat and drinking a lot on Sunday night was worth it. Maybe it is because they are good musicians…maybe it is because I love dancing…or maybe it has something to do with the fact that the members of the band and members of this blog went to the same college and we feel bonded to them somehow…whatever the reason, it was fun.
Flashback Music Video: Crystal Waters “She’s Homeless” — Omigod, I Totally Forgot About This Song and It’s Awesome
I still have no idea how this got in my iTunes. Umm, sorry I couldn’t find the radio edit. Here’s the extended version, which is always better, anyway.

Five Questions You Should Never Ask Someone Wearing Giant Headphones, Especially If You Are A Sketchy Russian Man Who Is Drunk At 7:30 AM

It took me an hour to make this in paint, so please respect the advice the tiny head and gigantic headphones are giving you.
1. Is this bus going to ______? (insert wherever the bus marquee clearly states it will be heading.)
2. What are you listening to?
3. In response to “you wouldn’t know it,” Is that because it is angry music?
4. Is your family from Europe?
5. Where are your parents from in Europe? Oh…they’re American? I thought from your American accent and your answer to question 4, “yeah like 5 generations ago,” you were actually European. I thought maybe we could discuss how much we have in common, like because members of your family may or may not be from a country on the same continent as mine.
Actually, fuck it. Just don’t ever talk to someone wearing headphones. Whether you are drunk or not, chances are, someone listening to music would rather continue do so. But cheap beer-breath and cheesy compliments may make the situation worse.

Girl Talk: The Most Mindblowing Party, Except for the Fact That the People Were Totally Busted

In actuality he was this really nerdy-looking kid with long, scraggly hair. Gross.
OK, so Girl Talk on Saturday was amazing. Every five minutes, there were props -glitter, balloons, bags full of air, confetti, toilet paper — being strewn into the crowd from the rafters. It was magical. Except the problem was that the crowd was composed of frat brothers, hoes and Capitol Hill-types. Half the crowd was onstage dancing along side the DJ, including this one busted bitch in red doing the most embarrassing whitegirl dance. I literally said, “Oh, God,” out loud and sort of pointed in her general direction, and the guy in front of me, who was apparently looking at her, too, said, “I knowwwwww….“. Thank the Lawwwdie all mighty I know how to shake my a$$. The music was great. The highlight is when he almost played “Music Sounds Better with You.” Almost.

TWITTER: The Biggest Mistake of My Life or the Start of Something Big? I’m Really Still on the Fence
I joined Twitter recently and I just don’t know about it. I go through spurts where I’ll update like ten times in a day. Other times, I’ll let it lie fallow for weeks. We’ll see I guess.
But, enough about me. We’re taking this crazy experiment of a blog to the next level with our very own Twitter page (forgive me if I don’t know the lingo here, Twitter page will have to do for now). Follow us. Our name is DestroyDC.

Living In D.C. Is Slowly Killing My Gentle Spirit Because The People Here Only Wear Ugly Business Suits
I don’t know if anyone else has noticed, or if it’s just me, but people in D.C. really have horrible style. Actually that’s a little harsh…It’s more like…they are just aesthetically boring. I guess their intellect and political aptitude makes up for the fact that they look the most uninteresting people on the planet. Read the rest of this entry »
