Suicide Tourism?

Out-of-towners traveling to New York City specifically to commit suicide have accounted for 5.3 percent of city suicides and more than 10 percent of all Manhattan suicides since 1990, according to a new research study.

That’s funny, I’d rather be dead than forced to visit most other cities in America.

It’s Buffoon Day…

In Midtown NYC.

Please, do not leave the house under any circumstance unless you enjoy seeing drunken morons “woohoo”ing and vomiting.

Gramercy Park Ewok Pimp

reader Goggla snapped this picture and writes in:

“I saw this man/woman (???) dressed as a pimp daddy strolling around Gramercy Park and thought of you. Unfortunately, I used my camera phone rather than my real camera, so the picture is crap. Also, the phone made a really loud snapshot sound, which frightened the subject away. It sported a black top hat with red/yellow feathers, a full-length Ewok coat and walking stick…”

I doubt this jacket is made out of real leather, but PETA should still go after this guy for humiliating a helpless animal (a lynx? jaguar?) by displaying it’s visage on his back.

If you see a 68-year-old in Manhattan wearing hipper jeans than you…

…he’s probably a European tourist.

If I was the sign-maker, I don’t think a heart is the one icon I would have employed.

Using G-Mail’s “rich text formatting” icons available, here are a few better choices:

I NY Tourism

What ICON would you use?

Sbarro’s

With rumors swirling that Sbarro’s may soon go out of business, where in the heck will NYC tourists go to double-fist 64 ounces of Mountain Dew Code Red and dine on delicious pizza? Any one know a place with good pizza in our little burg?

Good Morning America!!!
