This weekend I went to the all and mighty NEW YORK CITY. The main spectacle of the weekend was a trip to Coney Island.<\/p>\n

First off, Coney Island is a dirty ass place — a cheap ‘beach’ (gravel and syrienges) and amusement park for city residents to go to on the weekends. There is a plethora of gold chains, tight undershirts, and other humans and animals that may be described as ‘litter’. There was also a Village Voice sponsored concert, so emo kids were in abundance.<\/p>\n

There are random events and rides all over. It’s a hodge podge of games and rides with wave after wave of human traffic. But the best and most bewildering game was advertised as ‘SHOOT A LIVE HUMAN’<\/a> (others report this as shoot the freak), and sure enough, you could shoot a REAL HUMAN with paintballs. This freak turns out to be a black guy wearing numerous jock straps that darts back and forth between obstacles.<\/p>\n

Other events included a trip to the Native American Museum<\/a> in lieu of a visit to the completely crowded Ellis Island \/ Statue of Liberty ferry. We also saw Scanner Darkly<\/a>, and prepared to be subdued in mediocrity (save for Robert Downey & Woody Harrilson). All in all, it was another wonderful weekend spent in the Big Apple.<\/p>\n

I’m also pondering doing the Chap Olympics<\/a> (these are the best photos ever, I’m convinced!).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
