The new IHOP sign is installed while the Blind Pig wishes he could look on with loving eyes. But he is thrilled by his sense of smell. By the way, both of these dumps deserve each other. Like Bundle/ Fly, the cloning of Woo/Barf is now complete.
ReplyDeleteDidn't someone suggest that IHOP would have a low-key presence, like it does in Harlem?
ReplyDeleteIt's now by far the main "attraction" on 14th between second and third.
I hate the Blind Pig. I'm always walking by it at 10am-ish and invariably some hoser in an eye-searing football jersey is standing in its little sidewalk courtyard guzzling beer and bellowing into his cellphone about some ridiculous game, brah.
ReplyDeleteI don't judge the morning drinker, but at least do it alone in your apartment or in a place like the Blarney Cove, like a dignified drunk.
This IHOP sign is an eyesore but at least 1) IHOP's action is well behind doors 2) it doesn't serve booze and 3) it smells like yummy maple syrup and not beer vomit
ihop is good.
ReplyDelete@Janos - In the World of IHOP, the 14th St awning is low key, but not as low key as the one in Harlem.
ReplyDeleteBut that 4-story high banner is definitely not low key, and just plain looks bad.
I love the subtle "Revenge of the Nerds" theme that runs through the comments section on occasion.
ReplyDeleteClap your hands everybody, and everybody clap your hands. We're Lambda Lambda Lambda and Omega Mu. We come here on stage tonight to do our show for you. We got a rockin' rhythm and a hi-tech sound that'll make you move your body down to the ground. We got Poindexter on the violin, and Lewis and Gilbert will be joining in. We got Booger Presley on the mean guitar and a rap by little ol' me Lamar. We got Takashi beating on his gong, the boys and the Mu's are clapping along. And just when you thought, ya seen it all, along comes a Lambda four foot tall. So Wormser come on out here on the floor, so we can move our bodies, like never before. Break!
ReplyDelete@EV Grieve: Ha ha ha!
ReplyDeleteNice one!
