Matt Bomer on Zen and the Art of Metropolis

I lived in Midtown back [in the early aughts], and I’d never do that again. It’s byzantine… you walk outside, and I hear the Rolling Stones song, ‘Here Comes Your 19th Nervous Breakdown.’ It’s hard to be Zen there. [On the other hand,] it’s too Zen in L.A. I feel completely blessed to have the best of both worlds. There are things I love and appreciate in New York — the culture, the metropolitan aspect, taking public transportation. The museums, the theater. And New Yorkers. There’s nothing I love more than a really indignant New Yorker walking through our shot who says ‘I don’t care what you fuckers are doing, I’m going to my building!’ They’re so righteous about it.

Using the adjective “Byzantine” to describe the brand of chaos that is particular to Midtown is so gay.

I always thought Byzantine meant archaic and overly complex rather than chaotic.

FTA: “it’s too Zen in L.A.”

Right, he obviously has never been stuck in Friday rush hour traffic on the 405.

True, but why do so many douchebag New Yorkers (and other east coast scum) come out here to clog up the freeways and cause pollution? Oh, right, to become STARS. Hahahahahaha, losers, just get me my eggs Benedict stat and make sure the coffee is hot.

Oh yes he has, with those kids of his in the back kicking his seat and the husband(??) screaming into his cell phone.

Jeff is right, he’s using “byzantine” the wrong way.

Anyhow, I’d take Constaninople over New York or Los Angeles any day!
