Is an unlikely bromance in the air? Has Paul Rudd reached out to Poster Boy with specifics about how he wants the I Love You, Man ad campaign altered? This letter was spotted on the downtown 6 platform at 51st Street.

However, this is probably just the work of a crazy Rudd fan, or some sort of plan by Dreamworks to enliven their boring posters.

Former Misfits guitarist Bobby Steele says “Die Yuppie Scum” is hate speech and he’s started removing posters that bear the slogan. Enter East Village activist Jerry the Peddler: "[Jerry] asked what I thought I was doing, and I showed him the poster and explained that it was hate speech and shouldn’t be tolerated. He acknowledged that I was right — it was hate speech, and, he added, ‘I hate Yuppies.’ I told him he had no right to call for their death, as I reached to take down another of his hate-filled posters. He grabbed my left hand — technically an assault — and bent my finger back. ‘I’ll break your fingers, so that you’ll never play guitar again, and if I see anymore of these posters down…I’ll kill you,’ he said."
