Quicklink: Christmas In Greenpoint

(Or: If You Can’t Beat ‘Em, Join ‘Em!)I recently had the pleasure of helping a friend of mine, Bitchy Bluestocking copy edit a draft of her rather lively Christmas experience in our fair burgh. As of today, dear readers, it is up! Follows is my favorite passage:

…I told my roommates that I’ll be in Istanbul from January 13 through the 18. If during that time they’re awakened by Martin Luther King, Jr. carols then they’re welcome to join the party — I’m serious, we have a standing invitation — and drink as much of the landlord’s booze, smoke as many of his cigarettes, and tell everyone spierdalaj (spear-doll-eye), Polish for “fuck off,” which I take as being the true meaning of Christmas — or any other holiday — in the 94th precinct.

Read it for yourself. It’s a hoot!

It’s been a long time since I have featured what I like to call “urban artifacts” on New York Shitty. Well, you can thank the Mister for spying this bevy of goodness (which can be found outside the restaurant formerly known as Rhong Tiam). I like to call it the 2011 East Village Survival Kit!*


And it even comes with a little motivational material!

P.S.: This delightful missive can be found around the corner.

*But is equally applicable in the Lower East Side, Williamsburg, East Williamsburg or Greenpoint. To name a few.

Greenpoint Photos Du Jour: Chinches

Apparently either people do not know what know what chinches are or being a “blood meal” is not a “deal breaker”. My advice: before renting an apartment in the Garden Spot (or anywhere in our fair city, for that matter) check the Bedbug Registry. Warning/Caveat: before clicking the previous link be prepared to be totally horrified.
