How blatant of a sham is "reality TV" when they hold a casting call to search high and low for people to fit the stereotypes they wanted all along? ...

This is supposed to be a news blog, not a place to hand out PETA tracts...

The grammar on that sign is pretty lousy, and it seriously undercuts its effects. If they were going to sink that much time into making a clever prank sign, you'd think they would proofread it well ...

They need to squash the 2nd Avenue line. Why is nobody talking about this option? That saps cash out of the budget left and right. They should stop worrying about building new lines when they can'...

You have a constitutional right to peaceably assemble. It's a basic freedom. I wish more people would acknowledge that....

As in so many other cases, when people say "tough" it could pretty easily be exchanged with "stupid." It wouldn't take but one cab driver not paying attention to put an end to their biking days once...

I can't decide if PETA or the Olsen twins annoy me more....
