In kids movies when I was young, one of the insults you can hurl at a dude was, "You throw like a girl!" But the truth is that kids learn cuss words way faster than that, and no one says that. A more realistic chant is, "You fucking suck!" Kids learn fast yo, cuz life is not rated PG and you grow up fast. Sometimes you gotta get with the program, no matter what the program is. There was some news for those into lunching in Midtown last week. The folks behind The Spotted Pig and John Dory Oyster Bar opened a taco restaurant called Salvation Taco! Hip hip, horray! But I discovered that if all you're into are tacos, then you will be disappointed with the portion sizes at Salvation Taco. You better fix up your expectations really fast and get used to reality....

A side effect of looking for an apartment is that I realized I need more money (who doesn't) and I can't make decisions. It's very un-Drapper to have those two qualities in New York City.

When I was in high school and the first few years of college, the dominant instant messaging system in the U.S. was called AIM, which stood for AOL Instant Messenger. If you have no goddamn clue what AOL means, I hate you. Stop being so hip. But one of the features of AIM was that it was an extension off of regular AOL because the chat feature was actually what was most popular about it. Anyway, AIM had this thing where you could post a tiny text 'profile' or whatever you want like quotes or whatever. And I would always think I was this great emo (before emo was a word, even though now it's not anymore) shit and wrote my own un-pithy quotes about life. As a thirty-something now, the only un-pithy thing that I really want to write on my 'profile', which is...
Sometimes wifey and I have serious adult conversations, such as when she told me a child at school had lice and we might have to comb each other's hair to look for the pesky lil shits. Oh and this conversation happened on texting so I responded with the hysterically crying emoji. See, adult conversations. But really sometimes we go over possible bad outcomes before we leave New York, such as me losing my job. (insert hysterically crying emojis...
