People are always asking us why we try and leave the city on weekends during the summer. Hopefully this post will help to explain.

You see, people in the city claim they are "Busy Doing Nothing", but we don't buy it. When the Observer came out with the story on the hottest new night spot being a bench on Orchard and Houston street we didn't take much notice. As Gawker, Gothamist and others followed in reporting on this "non-scene scene" we again chuckled and moved on. Now, however, things are getting a little out of hand. The hipster kids here are no longer "busy doing nothing". They are making flyers, printing tshirts, scheduling events, and inviting us to be their friends on Myspace . Somebody better tell these kids to settle down a bit. Everyone knows that the reason hipsters are sortof "cool" is because they don't TRY to be "cool" but also because they don't try to be "uncool". NEWSFLASH Team Bench: when ya start trying too hard to be uncool, it just ain't cool.

We'll deal with the guidos, at least they have the ocean to clean up in.
