manhattonite: hi. i live/hang out/shop in some random 3-letter acronym. me: hi. i've lived here for about a year now and still don't know/care what you're talking about.

its not even that i was yelling at him. i was kind of yelling in general. but theres something really fucking annoying about new-manhattan transplants that try to establish their hip-ness by name dropping in the haute nyc lingo. i want to strangle them. ofetn i find the ven diagram of manhattan wannabe hipsters and mac users in my head have a huge part that overlap. when did life get so sad that name dropping your computer and your hangout became your "definition"
