    At the risk of sounding like my old man, foursquare seems like a great way for thieves to know exactly when you're not home. #foursquare

    What you're saying is, trend articles are often written in a cookie-cutter style? #newsyoucanuse #captainobvious #foursquare

    Julia Roy and Rachel Sklar -- members of the ~media elite~ -- use it, too! Yesterday, Julia twittered that she was shopping in SoHo and checked into Foursquare; consequently, she craved candy. Why? She illustrated it with a TwitPic. #foursquare

    @Owen Thomas: Agreed. There should also be a tag for things like Julia Allison's alcohol-fueled train wreck of a Saturday night. Looking to Peggy Noonan for inspiration, I propose:

    @mattchew03: I added a tip on Foursquare that a certain hotel in my city had free tampons and pads in the bathroom on the lobby level. It shows up if you check into any of the nearby bars. #foursquare

    I used to date a guy who had hair like that. The ONLY solution is to grow it long and shaggy, like collar length all around. Which can also be dead sexy, at least in a context where everyone is chronically undersexed.

    @LisaHunter: Um, yeah, totally right. I mean, not that it would make him a bad person. It's just that he'd probably be really, really embarrassed about it, and his friends, grown adults in their 30s, mind you, would probably bring it up all the fucking time and wonder aloud if his neck still feels "phantom pain" from the "mulletectomy." He'd probably wish the '80s never even happened.

    While we are at it, lets just agree this exemption applies to just about any choices made right up to college graduation.

    but if they didn't like it why would they go back even at 20 percent off?
