(a) saying what's on your mind...an admittedly difficult task considering the scrutiny placed on off-handed comments these days.
(b) soundbites...give me a catchy saying and I will run with it to the end...into the ground...to my death... (just kidding - xoxo Ian Borak)
A selection of my personal favorites include, but are by no means limited to:
"We're lucky I don't have a real life." - the audacious Johanna Vos on why she has an abundance of time on her hands to do cool random s***.
"If you love someone you let them know, and all the rest is details." - Andrew Francis, founder of LOLA and the man who is going to change all our lives.
"My parents are having a party right now and they're downstairs drinking scotch like it's their job." - Christy Gonis, my best-best friend on the realization that our parents live far cooler lives than we do.
"This dress is worth more than your life." - NY PR girl (who shall go unnamed) to a bartender at a dive bar on the LES... moments later her dress was doused in tomato juice from the bar spout.
"red yellow blue red red blue blue red yellow blue" - Sydney Dundas reminiscing on the better days when our hours were filled with the joy of Rock Band... "Jordan MacKenzie I miss your voice."
"Fact: I just faked an orgasm to make it to my tanning appointment on time. " - OK, despite my deepest desires, this one should probably go unnamed as well.
"If you are unkind, you do not have enough money to be here." - The Marquee Room (Calgay, AB) 'Standard Policy'.
Given my propensity for collecting the above quotes in my little black book of memories, it should come as no surprise that I was also drawn to such sentiments displayed in graffiti around Brooklyn town. While I love the 'in your face' honesty, and genuine sentiment expressed in the below...mostly they are just really amusing.
