Things to read and juicyness
After Amy Sohn stopped writing for NY Press, I had no reason to read the Press, save for the rare interesting story or two. I still thumb through the Press, though mostly for the listings and my horoscope. but this week's Press is actually a worthwhile read. The feature story about a serial cheater is engrossing and the Dategirl Column is the best I've ever read. An excerpt:
Unlike what most people smugly believe, stupid can happen to the smartest kid in the class. Stupid lays the groundwork by making sure you feel like shit about yourself. Having a recent ugly breakup or a long dry spell under your belt will help you get to stupid a lot quicker. Once you've completely convinced yourself that nobody will ever again put their mouth on your boobies, you are a prime candidate for the Worst Relationship of Your Life.
I realize this may sound like a confession, but I lo-ove gossip--celebrity gossip, personal gossip, I lap it all up. So, imagine my surprise and delight when I discovered my boss, a well-respected individual and happily married father of two, had dated Lucy Liu! I mean Lucy freakin' Liu! Granted, this was a very long time ago, but an impressive piece of information nonetheless. I still can't believe it.
