Spontaneous Confessions
Some website we never heard of, Insomniac City asks NY'ers, "What's the most spontaneous thing you've done in NYC?" It's probably videos like this that keep the rest of the country hating us. Here are some of the responses:
-“Have sex in the middle of the day in a truck in a park.”
-“Stole from a military base.”
-“Talk to strangers.”
And our overall favorite:
-“I took two hits of acid and went to New Year’s Eve in 96, in Times Square, it was thoroughly fucked up.”
Even though, technically, showing up to ANY New Year’s Eve in Times Square will evoke the same feeling, sober or tripping balls.

Chances are high that you're bombarded with countless advertising messages on the typical daily commute. After a while, it kind of becomes second nature, but by the time you reach your office building, you figure you can rest easy. Not so. Reader Vince Galvin informs us that CBS has decided to get you one last time before making it to your slave box by placing 'How I Met Your Mother' ads inside elevator doors. And, if a life size Doogie Howser staring you down every morning isn't nauseating enough, the ads actually encourage you to take up conversation with fellow passengers, thereby breaking a major rule of NYC living: the sacred elevator silence. As NY'ers we've perfected the art of either staring at our feet, watching floor indicators, and increasingly even using blackberries to completely ignore any form of chit-chat or contact with fellow elevator passengers. How dare CBS try to strip us of that birthright in a cheesy attempt to get us to watch their shitty show. Screw you CBS, and your mother. 
Sure many media outlets like to focus on the big name designers when it comes to Fashion Week but seldom is homage paid to the actual working girls who trounce the runways, get needled like pin cushions, and survive on a diet of rice cakes and de-calorized water*, especially the first time models. We caught up with newly installed cat walking-runwayist Sarah 'Sweet 16' McSweeney. Don't let the nickname fool ya, she's actually 18 years old and this was her first time hitting the runway, but she’s handling it like a pro. Sarah, repped by

It's that time of the year: Fashion Week NYC. Don't know if you’ve ever been under the tent but every few shows can actually be quite amusing. Besides making fun of all the fashion fagistas there are tons of half-naked hot model chicks swinging their hips, the shows only last max 10 minutes, and there are always the obligatory celebs to torment. So we have a very special treat for you. We just got our Heatherette passes for tonight's show and luckily for ya'll they're easily to duplicate. First thing you need is 8.5x11 Inkjet Canvas Paper. You can get it any Staples or Office Max. Next go
