Yes, I like lists. Yes, you will pretend to like them, too. Well, long enough to read this one anyway.
"8 funny things I've seen this week", by Louise O'Brien
1) A guy with the word "mom" tattooed on his arm in flowery script. And he wasn't a cartoon or transported from the 1940s.
2) This hilariously tongue-in-cheek billboard on the West Side Highway, sponsored by Manhattan Mini Storage of all companies. When interviewed by NY1 every single male chosen to be confronted on camera sounded retarded and slightly priggish, except for the one man who said that Roe v. Wade is not being threatened. He just sounded like a tool. Read a newspaper, wouldya buddy?
3) Justin Timberlake earnestly playing "Dick in a Box" on the piano as an encore at his Jersey show. "One, cut a hole in a box. Two, put your junk in that box. Three, make her open that box." Fucking priceless.
4) Sitting in the front row (thanks Tamar!) at Justin's NYC show with Emily and watching her stand up every time he came to our side of the stage because she "didn't want him to be offended that she wasn't standing up for him." He tooooootally noticed, too, Em. Good call.
5) Getting a text message from Katie telling me that Emily and I are dead to her because we were at the aforementioned Justin show and she wasn't.
6) My co-worker, Amy, doing an impression of a guy she went on a blind date with dancing badly at a U2 concert a few years ago.
7) Me smiling at the baby being held by the people walking up the stairs ahead of me at the Bryant Park station and not noticing that my shoe came off until I tripped on it and nearly cracked my head open.
8) That same evening, walking DOWN the stairs at the Lowery and tripping over my own stupid skirt. Peasant skirt, heels, reading a book while walking -- deadly combination.
