As a resident of the Flyover Zone myself, I'm curious, MarvelGirl, as to what made you move to NYC from Chicago.

We're criticizing Momo for not sleeping with non-existent things? Because, you know, he hasn't done Pikachu, or Mayor Bloomberg's sense of style.

scratch that. shes the most powerful superhero (maybe besides the sentry) on earth, shes saved wolverines life countless times, saved the world from the shi'ar empire, and has fucked both wolverine and cyclops, something i'm sure youve only dreamed of.

woah... wheres this "fuck chicago" come from? I lived in Chicago for 17 years before I moved to New York, and I can honestly say that Chicago is WAY cooler of a place, if only because its devoid of pretentious assholes that think their city is the only one that matters in America. Even though half those assholes arent even FROM new york! you can "execute" me if you want, but I'm sorry, I'm gonna take this personally. Chi town for life motherfuckers!

I had loved the idea of all the gay Times men hanging out with each other--Frank Bruni and Ben Brantley as reimagined by Tom of Finland, lounging around their workstations in leather chaps and jaunty Greek sailor hats--but Brantley had to go and ruin the whole illusion.

Sigh. Back to the Mitch McConnell/Dick Cheney slashfic, I guess.

"What are we going to do?" wondered Elliot. "Beat them with the Sunday Times?"

I think the NYT may have just found a slogan for its first T-shirt.
