"And if you ever get into a bar fight in Greenpoint, you might just want to keep your hands in your pockets."
Come on. A blog post saying "It is RUMORED that a certain bar in our fair burgh had a brawl which culminated in a person biting off another person’s finger."
I didn't even have to add the caps to emphasize why this isn't news. They were already there in the initial post.
But hey, if you want to post updates on bar fights in Greenpoint, I hear about -- or see myself -- one almost every week. Let me know, I'll send you all the rumors.
SNL will never mock Michelle Obama because #1, she is the cult leader's wife, #2 she is black, #3, she is black.
>The CNN producer who died in her Manhattan apartment with her 2-year-old clutching onto her was determined to have overdosed on cocaine.
You guys posted this one at least three times already in summaries.
Shouldn't that be "ex-CNN producer"? She left them 10 years ago.
poor kid, how can you be overdosing with your kid next to you!!!!
isn't putin like 200 years old
Umm, for SNL: Maya Rudolph was on the show and she's definitely at least half-black.
Putin is 500 years old. He is a vampire.
Perhaps SNL can give Condi Rice a job come January.
Red Star is across the street from Paloma. A bad couple of days for those two establishments.
