this is so wrong on so many levels.....EV, don't know what was in the ground floor of the Tri-building. it's been unoccupied as long as I can remember...
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ken...
ReplyDeleteSomeone tol me that I shouldn't mock the snuggie until I tried oneon...Uh-huh.
IT's going to be, like, 80 degrees tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteGood point, Larry... What does one wear under a snuggie anyway?
ReplyDeleteI am so sick of corporate "guerilla" marketing.
ReplyDeleteSO very wrong!
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me of those pajama "hugging" parties that were happening a few years ago, don't know if they still are. Strangers would congregate in various apartments wearing only their PJs, and hug each other. I knew a woman who became addicted to these pathetic gatherings, and I thought she was totally off-the-wall!
Oh, Girl! Cuddle Parties! And they are alive and well!

I understand the idea behind this... Or, God. No, no... I'm trying... I remember someone describing it as going to a bar but not drinking.
Oh, anyway. See you at the Village PourHouse!
ReplyDeleteI think the most ridiculous part of this crawl may not be the Snuggies, but the sequence of bars.
ReplyDeleteWhy, after SideBar, would one go to two places a few aves east and streets south, only to return to Belmont, which is literally across the street from SideBar? Aren't bar crawls supposed to be sort of directionally sense-making? Are they trying to make people barf?
These are rhetorical questions of course; we're talking about moronic drunks sporting Snuggies all over the East Village/Gramercy without shame on the first truly warm night of the year.
PS I have worn a Snuggie, but only my mom's when I visit her in Vermont. It has a howlin'-wolves-in-the-mountains print all over it, and I love to put it on and spin around mom's house doing a rendition of Cher's "Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves."
ReplyDeleteev'ry night the men would come around, and lay their money doooown...
