I have been hanging out with a new dude, and the other night he invited me over to see his place for the first time. He promised crackers, cheese, and wine. I promised Bananagrams. I was really nervous on the train to Park Slope. Crackers and cheese! He sounded like a real man.
When I arrived, he opened the front door for me, and I walked into this:
Yes, that is wicker furniture. Yes, that is a pile of junk. Way to pick up before I came over.
SCORE!

Well honestly Lindsey it’s not quite the worse I have seen in the city. If anyone want to see how dirty apartments can be than to craigslist, look for some apartments and do some showings. Once I was a student and looked for shared apartments I occasionally almost collapsed due to the smell.
