These happen in Brooklyn, too, because of course they do. I have a friend who went to one, apparently they’re full of the types of people who get really into SoulCycle/CrossFit/any exercise fad which is pretty expected. Nice Community reference username, by the way.
Dave Eggers’ recent novel The Circle is an interesting look at the whole Google/Facebook/etc. utopian office cult mentality. Pretty silly at parts (and kind of obvious), but it’s a quick, easy read, you can finish the whole thing on a transatlantic flight.
There’s a chapter in Vice co-founder Gavin McInnes’ memoir where he talks about how for ten years he would go to SXSW and pretend to be retarded. He would do a bunch of coke then go around starting fights, eating people’s food, stealing drinks, and grabbing women’s asses, then make all his friends chase after him shouting “TIMMY! NO!” At this point people would feel so bad they started apologizing to him.
Last year my office holiday party was in a bowling alley and after a few shots I ended up getting so drunk I made an Irish exit while still wearing bowling shoes. Got a voicemail from my boss later that night telling me that he found my jacket, one shoe, and a piece of fried chicken (the party was catered by a gourmet fried chicken place) in a pile in the corner. I never went back for the other shoe, and am now the owner of a pair of shoes made for an activity that I hate.
CARLSON: You had John Kerry on your show and you sniff his throne and you’re accusing us of partisan hackery?
STEWART: Absolutely.
CARLSON: You’ve got to be kidding me. He comes on and you…
(CROSSTALK)
STEWART: You’re on CNN. The show that leads into me is puppets making crank phone calls.

It’s a book dude, please relax.
#FireJayTas so he’ll be forced to move to LA and write a spec script for Galactic Gridiron.

I’m beginning to suspect that Grub Street is the only section of NYMag that JayTas reads…

Please just go to a bar and make a friend.
Palate?
Ed Sheeran looks like if he hadn’t made it famous through music, he’d be a serial killer. It’s the ridiculous hair/creepy dead-eyed stare combo.
If you’re playing 30 minute songs just to piss people off, you are the hipster in this scenario.
RIP Colbert, would’ve had a field day with this:
Also starring Katee Sackhoff, or has the Grandex office never seen Battlestar Galactica? What the frak?!
Blockbuster is still around. It’s called a Netflix account with DVD access.
What, no mention of that bitch at work who insisted on calling him Himplestead?
The Power Slick is only the Holy Grail of office haircuts if you’re Gil Himplestead. All form, no function.
“Last Week Tonight” is, of course, famous for it’s sex scenes.
