Anonymous comment writer thinks JYC is "weird" and "not hip"

[sigh], the abuse and risk the JYC writers face each day is disastrous, scary and downright nauseating. Today, at 10:42am and Anonymous JYC reader posted a comment to one of the posts at JYC. The comment reads as such:

u 4 absolute weirdos that write this blog think u are so hip, but u are so not!!!Just thought i would break it to you gently, so you can start picking up the pieces nice and slowly :)

Well, as editor and creator of the JewYorkCity blog, let me give you a few facts:

- We do not "think" we are hip, we 'KNOW' we are hip. We are the modern day Wikopedia definition of 'HIP'. All 4 writers come from varied walks of life: Long Island, Minnesota, Brooklyn and Manhattan - obviously, the 4 corners of the world! Long Island is famous for its Iced Tea. Minnesota is famous for its Mall of the World. Brooklyn is famous for its location of fornication of David and Victoria (Spice) Beckham leading to the name of their bechor. And Manhattan... oh Manhattan is where all the JYC writers congregated to meet and create this fabu web-zine.

- Break it to us gently? Oh, during this sad period of the 9 days (which is only a week, but whatever, Christmas really isn't 12 days either), you anonymously write to tell us of our eccentricity. Please, we are JewYorkers, we can take it... Identify yourself, have a drink - we'll treat... love us or hate us, we're here to stay.

- "Pick up pieces nice and slowly"?!? Oh, we are the bitchiest bunch on the 10025 zip code. We make those Project Runway contestants seem like innocent KBY boys... We can handle it... we've been through oh-so-much, such as the cancellation of LAX (with Heather Locklear) and Ruben Studdard's constant weight gain. And guess what, we are still here... because we are heroes.

With love, concern, and the fulfillment of Friday-mitzvah-night, even if it's b'yichud,
JewYorkCity
