Driving through Queens today, I saw that McDonalds and Starbucks have finally done the inevitable and fused together into an all-powerful red and yellow-striped latte and hamburger-dispensing mutant hybrid:
Resistance is futile! I mean, what force on Earth could possibly stop a complete McStarnolds take over??
I think we’re doomed.

This is Part 2 of a then-and-now look at the New York City filming locations of The Warriors. Click here for Part 1! Resuming where we left off, the Warriors are on a train heading toward Union Square when a nearby fire forces them out into the the Tremont section of the Bronx on foot….
Hey everyone – I’ll be on the radio program Seven Second Delay tonight (Wednesday) to talk about location scouting! The show starts at 6pm (I should be on at 6:30pm), and will be broadcast live on WFMU (91.9FM in NY/90.1 in the Hudson Valley). We’re taping at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre ($5 gets you…
Update: I was disappointed to receive word today that several people went to see the Valencia, only to be told that services were in session and to come back at a later point. Apparently, the church was not expecting such a large turnout, and is trying to figure out a better way to allow people…
I was searching for elevator options around the northern part of Greenpoint when I came to that little park at the end of Manhattan Avenue, right along Newtown Creek… …and noticed something through the bushes… A tent! Someone is camping out in Brooklyn! No, I did not find any campfire ashes or s’mores remnants in…
Today, I learned that in 1998, Ving Rhames won the Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Made For TV Movie – then got on stage and gave it to Jack Lemmon, who he had just beaten. Truly bad-ass. Why am I looking up Jack Lemmon? Check back in on Monday! -SCOUT
Over the past week, I’ve been taking I-87 North to scout in Rockland County… …which means I’ve spent about an hour each day stuck in this: As anyone who travels it regularly knows, I-87 can be a hellhole of traffic due to the unholy convergence of multiple interstates and local bridges in the most inopportune…

Money changes everything, my friend.
Das Racist’s biggest hit seems oddly quaint by comparison.
“McBuck’s”

But notice who’s sign is bigger on this building.
Nothing like a 3,000 calorie meal with a Big Mac and a Sugar-ccino!
All you need is a “DuaneReade Express” (patent pending) for the ultimate in one-stop drive-thruness.
this has been there in whitestone for at least 9 years but sadly they are only within one physical building. they have no shared or common area indoors 🙁

jk – This just in – Humor Now Allowed on the Internet!
One Stop shopping, caffeine, meat and fries, cold beverages and a banana. Come on, what more do you want in life?
Please tell me this is the furthest from April 1st April Fool’s Day post yet.
It must be destroyed!!

I used to work here at the McDonalds for about 2 years… The guy that owns it also owns the mcd on the other side of the whitestone exp. I used to get my usual “meal” from working at mcd then went next door for a free coffee! Bad choice….
