Trekking down to Wall Street

March 22, 2008 · 7 Comments

Don’t ask us (or James who took this pic on his cell) what these tourists were doing. Spotted walking down Wall Street along side the suits, it wasn’t super obvious where in Manhattan she was planning to hike. Is there some undiscovered mountain among the bank buildings? Or was she just planning to poke people out of her way? If you’ve got a guess about WTF was going on — let us know.

Hogging maps won’t get you laid

January 9, 2008 · 2 Comments

Guys are total assholes when it comes to directions: they don’t ask for them, control the guidebooks when traveling, and lead others around in circles. That’s why we were surprised that this mom was perpetuating the males-are-better-at-directions complex by letting her son lead the way. Plus, she was even more lenient with the map hogging after he showed her the path to Macy’s. But shouldn’t she know that training this teen to steal maps from people with breasts isn’t gonna him laid?
