SuperMeetup NYC

[Leonard Leroy]

either do that or get some crazy foreign id. some places won't let you in without id but you can still have good time and just go somewhere where they don't check.

Crazy foreign ids are hit or miss.

Anyone been to Cafe Select?

Just read the feature on it in this month's Monocle. Probably heading there tonight with lady friends.

[sidneylo]

I miss you guys a lot. See you in August. Then in November. Then in January.

best to look 2 weeks before the start of a new month since most move in dates are the 1st of the month.

CL is a good start. Most list great apt to reel you in and show you shittier ones. Don't even believe them when they say this is the only one they have left. Threaten to walk away, say shit like "This is not what I was interested int". 9 out of 10 times they'll call you back telling you somehow another listing became available.

If you choose to work with a broker, haggle the shit out of them, same with owners actually. The market is shit in general for them, so you can use it to your advantage.

Yeah I ended up not going. Went to Freemans instead. Fucking delicious. Great cocktails, but a long wait (~1 hr) for a table for 2 at like 745.

I've gotten both done in Brooklyn for not too much. The bad news is that the laundry place I used to go to burned down, so that doesn't help too much, and hair cuts .. you can go most places in brooklyn and they won't be more than $50 (for guys at least), there was also some thread about going to places in chinatown.

last hair cut i got was $12 at a barber shop.

Right, if you go to a barber shop, it won't cost much of anything, if you go to a salon, then it won't cost more than $50

[joelz]

any (other) canadians who live here - they are opening up a tim's horton in times square in august. it almost makes it worthwhile to go there, but really not.

I'll stop filling up the thread now

[IM SOLE CRAZY]

Tim Hortons is the best. But if it opens in NYC the prices will be rape.

[BostonWardrobe]

i had a nice experience getting a haircut at Freemans Sporting Club. They will also give you a very relaxing shave, barber-shop style. Didn't cost too much either, from what I remember.

[billy.]

hit up Frank's Chop Shop in LES.

[sean_]

can anyone put me up on their couch/floor/in the closet for a couple days? gonna be in town wednesday-monday i think, i think i have somewhere for at least a couple of those days but im not sure if its for the whole time or not. i'll do dishes or buy you pizza or get someone to give u a handjobby.

[mouko]

Freeman's sporting club is my spot of choice. Dudes are mad cool.

Just went in for a trim before a photoshoot, 26.00 for a trim. I believe its 40 for a cut. Cut and shave is like 75. Good products sold there too, picked up Cool Grease XX there which is one of the best japanese products I've ever used. Hard to find in most places.

[readytoignite]

do franks and freemans use clippers or are they all precious about the art of barbering? i have a decent guy but closed sundays which is a total pain

[DaBestSpoona]

I started going to K2 based on peteyross' rec.

Not bad for 50 since I go every 3 months because of the way my stylist cuts resulting in a very nice grow back each time.

[polishmike]

thursdays are weak. no good parties during the summer. just check out random bars full of cwg

[pwnzj00]

Such as Blockheads on 33rd st....If anyone wants to drink this weekend and is in NY pm me. We shall have fun.

[homi29]

id want to go just because its called blockheads

[jeepster]

if you wanna hang out with 10,000,000 college freshman that get denied from every other bar, Blockheads and Benny's Burritos are the places to be.

[billy.]

that's exactly what i'm trying to do.

[Caps Lock]

There is a pool party this sunday on the rooftop of the Gansevoort hotel. I dunno what the scene is like there but I figure its gonna be nice with the weather and most likely wimminz in bikinis will be present also.

[polishmike]

Scene at the Gansevoort is a cross between Paris Hilton's intervention and Real Whores of Staten Island reunion.

I got a citation for public urination last night

were you pissing on the street? do you think that people *should* be allowed to do so? how about in the subway? or on your front door?

personally i think that pissing on the street is nasty.
