White Washing
New York City’s tourism bureau put together a fabulously deluded advert for the Big Apple.
Now, we live in New York City and we have never seen flying hot dogs, Can-Can dancers on steel construction beams, nor a Picasso painting come to life. Not while sober, at least.
Also, since when is NYC devoid of color, if you know what we mean.
Actually the ad is for a new theme park in Jersey called NYC. It’s off of exit 83.
There’s a Roy Lichtenstein and A Van Gogh but no Picasso.
I quite enjoy t Avenue Q puppets out and about at any rate..
The Seinfeld-ification of New York will turn this town into one big bland White Shopping Mall. A wise person once told me that you are a true New Yorker if you don’t react to a homeless guy taking a shit, a drag queen walking the streets or two guys kissing in public. I just long for some of those edgy days when “New York was the City that Slapped You Back!” instead of an endless going out of business sale (like Bush’s America) The New York Corporate media have to stop sucking Mayor Bloombucks cock as he isn’t all that, or a bag of chips.
