They’re not better looking; they’re not smarter; they’re not classier; they’re not more charming. They probably give more blowjobs than any reasonable woman, right? And they are empty inside, but it’s also society’s fault. Julie Klausner sushiagencygiving Is it a different New York since Lou Reed died?
