Things Learned After Another Halloween

-"The Joker" is in fact a far easier and lazlier costume than putting on a Canadian alt-rock hoodie you always wear and call yourself Chuck Klosterman.

-Asian girls can get away with wearing anything from a tennis skirt to a pair of riding pants and call it “Sexy Asian etc…"

-Do not dress as Hank and Dean Venture. People will demand Mecha Shiva constantly.

-Do not drink Rye mixed with Coke Zero. Zero Calories. Massive hangover.

-Drinking Rye does not suddenly give you powers of wit and charm. You also won’t be able to discuss British Premiere Soccer. You will do so anyway.

-If there is a rooftop, you will find at least four men peeing off it at all times.

-Ladders. You will climb them.

-Your cup filled with vodka. You will put it in your teeth as you climb the ladder and pour vodka over your face in the process. This will seem like a great idea.

-There is some weird mexican/spanish bar/restaurant on 9th between 4th and 5th avenue. They have baked corn kernels as a bar snack. I love the bar.

-Pork is delicious.
