A Real life “HBO Girls” Living Experience for $1500 p/m in Brooklyn

Secretly, a lot of us probably believe our lives deserve their own HBO television shows, but it takes a certain breed of superfan to advertise for a roommate on Craigslist promising a real-life HBO’s Girls living experience. So I thought I’d bring to your attention one such caucasian, 20s-something superfan called Hannah (yes like Hannah…

Moving Day! The House that was Sawn in Half and Shipped across the Bay

Sawn in half with a chainsaw, wheeled down the streets of San Francisco, stuck on a barge at Marina Green and moved across the bay to Belvedere– it’s safe to say it was no ordinary moving day for the Knowles-Moffitt Mansion on July 3rd, 1962.

Paris: The Little Details

But then I found the work of Getty photographer Gerard Hermand. He sees something most people don’t… Discover more of Gerard’s work on Flickr. :::…

Disney addresses Croissant Shortages in Paris

Take a Parisian tour with Mickey as Disney accurately depicts what rush hour is like in this city and addresses the highly important issue of croissant shortages in cafés after 11am. I mean, what is that? Who runs out of croissants?? No, I don’t want a  tartine, I NEED MY F***… sorry, enjoy the video…

The Guy who drew all the Buildings in New York

  Okay so this is probably going to be more fun for my New Yaawker readers, who know the city’s streets like the backs of their hands, but if like me, you just love that sketch-booky/ void of perfectly straight lines/ children’s book nostalgia-kind of art, then I suspect you’ll fall head over heels for…
