he HAPPENS to be one of the finest musicians in the world

omg!

The CoachUSA bus from Newark to Bryant Park/Times Square comes in clutch

My parents live in the Bay Area, so to visit, I either make the dang journey to EWR or JFK if I want to fly direct or I get a car to LGA and save that sweet sweet time in the morning (then spend it at a layover somewhere) 🫠

Oh haha!!

The M60 from Astoria boulevard is chef’s kiss

I live about 10 minutes from LGA so it’s my preferred airport. Never seen such an infrastructure glow-up in my life

It’s tap and pay now! No more metrocards

The cast was solid, but guy who played Collins was a total star. Hopefully he can be someone I can brag about in the future 😆

When my dad went to his high school reunion after 25 years, my sister was only 3. Many of his classmates were grandparents by then. (This was central CA farm country; he had left immediately for college in Oakland.) He won an award for having the youngest child!

It’s Bowen Yang :)

I’m sure someone out there knows this for sure, but Telly Leung might be the only person to have professionally played both Angel in Rent and the Phantom

Just saw Rent at NYU Steinhardt. Unlike at NYU Tisch, Mimi lived!

I would only give myself points for the red and white meat, but before I was 14, that wouldn’t be the case. I’ve eaten and enjoyed everything on here at some point in my life.

(I only like cucumbers as pickles, in tzatziki, and in sushi, though.)

A very good friend I knew in high school I keep in touch with when I’m visiting my family (he now lives in the same zip code as my parents); we became friends in HS, but I wouldn’t consider him a close friend until college
He’s about it, though

I only learned this from Mean Girls but it was pervasive enough that I learned it without having ever seen the movie

jesus people have some intense, bad responses to the fuentes clip—he needs to get laid (sex does not make you less a male supremacist or fascist); he's gay (again sex does not make you less fascist; also, who cares, he's a male supremacist); he should be ignored (he had dinner with the president...)

A guy who played for the A's one of the times they won the World Series
An member of the U.S. women's shot-put team at the 2004 Olympics
A guy who was a self-declared prophet and had a really grisly death at San Quentin

My friend pointed out that the % of pushy straight guys in the crowd must be attributed to Valentine's Day

Went back to Masquerade tonight and it was a great time yet again, and it was my first time seeing the indoor version — I prefer the indoor mausoleum with the Phantom in shadow!
(This was only my second time; there was a 24-hour flash sale.)

add e coli?

Jurassic Park (people jumped at the goat leg!)

Ninja Turtles (for some reason it wasn’t playing in the burbs yet, so at my young insistence, we made a day of it in San Francisco)

Rowdy Cats (LOL)

yikes

I'm sure Really Useful Group had something to do with it not being available anywhere, but I would love to see the James Van Der Beek SNL Cats sketch again

Over on threads someone just use ai;dr and we all need to adopt that right quick

Some other fans were tentatively going up to them at intermission (they seemed friendly!) and I told myself if they were still greeting people when I got out of the restroom, I'd go say hi. But they were done and back to business!

The encounter I wished I'd had was with Claude-Michel Schönberg and Alain Boublil, who were taking notes in standing room one of the last times I saw the last Les Miz revival.
