"This reminds me of the time in 8th grade when I spent all night baking a birthday cake from scratch for my English teacher because I hated her fucking guts and I slayed my 13 year-old self with the irony. Bitch still got her cake."

• Steverino:
"I couldn't help but wonder: Did I really look like the ghost in my projected image, or was I just doing some projecting of my own? It reminded me of the time when Samantha thought she was having an affair with the ghost that haunts her building and then it turned out to be an albino homeless man. I immediately called up Big to make him feel guilty about it and to yell at him for not buying more "I'm A Carrie" t-shirts."

"I was recently at The Waverly Inn arguing with a friend about whether or not I saw Max Abelson at Denise LeFrak's book party the other night. Before he could say "Greenmarket beets with humbolt fog goat cheese - and bring out some of those naughty shaved truffles, won't you Malcolm?" I had used my BlackBerry Pearl to connect to New York Social Diary and was in the process of reciting David Patrick Columbia's words confirming that I was, of course, correct."
