El Baño's So Over, El Evator's the Place to Be!

101008elevator.jpgThe "owner" of the super-exclusive secret club El Baño, who mailed us a much-appreciated roll of toilet paper last week to promote the joke lounge (accessed through a sliding door in the stall of a locked bodega bathroom), has sent us an email expressing outrage that a fake club has been "mocking" El Baño. This one, which has a website bearing a striking resemblance to El Baño's site, is called El Evator. You can guess where it's located. At this point, the parody of a parody of pretentious clubland is starting to wear a bit thin, but we do love that El Evator is opening for Administrative Assistant Week. Says El Baño's unidentified owner/prankster, "I guess when you're the best of the best you pick up haters along the way."

So, "the best of the best" operates out of a toilet stall. Please god, don't send me a key because I might take it to a locksmith and have it cut and then distribute copies to hundreds of homeless bums that could appreciate a little quality time 'en El Bano'.

El Bano es mierda de Lower East Side.
