Does He Really Have His Father’s Eyes?

Walking down the street here in Flatbush the other day, I came upon a truck parked in front of a house. Emblazoned on the door of the truck was “Mobile DNA Testing” and on the window, a picture of a baby with the question: “Does he really have his father’s eyes?”

Ho, snap!

Cheating Bitches Use Mobile DNA Testing!

Why not just put a sign outside your house that says “Cheating Bitch”?

Big Pimpin' Up in NYC

I don’t recall when I saw him, but I wound up sitting across from an old pimp on the subway. Decked out in a burgundy suit with a cream jacket, fuzzy purple velveteen hat and alligator skin-esque shoes with goldish capped toes. Pimpin’. Word.

There was a hat store on Fulton Street near where I used to live in Bed-Stuy. I could see this cat shopping there. They had everything, from old pimp shit to new pimp shit. It spanned generations. Like R&B, the old shit is infinitely better, hipper and cooler than the new.

Finally, this is how problems are handled at my place of work. Do we fix the sink? No. We put a bucket over the faucet.

Yes, that is a bucket atop the faucet.

    Excellent snapshots. Reminiscent of Vice magazine (in a good way). More of this. I’m not in NYC and the photographs do a nice job evoking the weird skankiness that stalks the city.
