Yes, but it is also self-selecting. As in, if you are genetically blessed with a high metabolism/are naturally thin, you might gravitate more towards that line of work? I’m sure both are true, I’m not sure there’s ever going to be a way to quantify it, either way.

I hate to disappoint you, but he was quoting the article. He wasn't really speaking. :(
I've heard tell that he does use words sometimes, but I've never seen it.. so who knows?

the bit's bizarre cruelty was made even more bizarre by the fact that the two have barely ever interacted...

How so? I wouldn't want to be involved in a relationship with someone who refused to reciprocate in the oral sex department but if someone else did, i mean, more power to them. I have been with people who'd much rather give than receive.

The idea of someone being so lazy/uncreative/unintelligent/ineloquent/etc. that they have to steal their thoughts directly from reddit really amuses the fuck out of me.

Jay Smooth is an inspired choice! That might get me to watch The Daily Show again!

I would say a justice system that kills innocent people is just as fucked, see this is what i mean both justice systems are awful.

I graduated in '96.... I think it was $22,500? Not sure what happened. They still call me for contributions, and I tell them that the largest private landowner in NYC does not need my lunch money.

In order to help with these efforts, we're also proud to announce 5 new Deans and 20 Vice Deans of the 1831 Fund. They will have excessive salaries/benefits and minimal, ambiguous, overlapping, responsibilities.

The Queen is so well dressed you might say Wintour is coming....i'll let myself out.

I knew someone would make this joke, but I didn't expect anyone to make it with such finesse. [Kisses fingers, flings them in the air]

For New Yorkers, I should note that there's a protest planned for Sunday at 1:00: https://www.facebook.com/events/1567677…

If only there was an organization that looked out for Italian Americans, that could advocate on her behalf, that could negotiate with the museum, maybe make them an offer that they perhaps might have a hard time refusing.

"The museum moved to Little Italy from Midtown Manhattan in 2008, buying the three buildings for $9 million in order to expand. The recession halted those plans, Mr. Carella said, and the goal now is to find a developer to buy the buildings while allowing the museum to remain rent-free."

New York: Where we remove all traces of authenticity, then complain there is nothing authentic left.

Why don't they just take her on as an oral history project? Allow her to remain at her base rent, with the condition that she records her memories of the neighborhood for use at the Museum. Everybody wins, nobody's a charity case.
