WTF BOSTON. WTF.

I finally caught the full "statement" from Peter Berdovsky and Sean Stevens, the two jokers who planted Lite-Brites all over Boston, my former Fair City by the Bay. Aside from the Trustafarian look, which I absolutely despise, I couldn't love these two jackasses any more. How do you piss off the mainstream media (an even bigger bunch of jackasses)? You deny them their soundbites, you swindle them out of their scapegoats, you talk only about 1970s hairdos in your press interviews.

How moronic, how absolutely devoid of insight, how ridiculously obtuse do you have to be to tell Berdovsky and Stevens, "I don't think you're taking this very seriously," as if you'd just uncovered the greatest graft of the millennium. Oh you think? These are two men talking about the origins of the "greaser" haircut (was it a 50's thing, or does it go all the way back to the 20's when people actually used grease in their hair?), when asked why they installed Lite-Brite ("Lites-Brite"?) in the city.

Perhaps it's not outside the realm of possibility to think, no, they're not really taking this as seriously as you are, dildo.

Oh, and maybe the media corps should, you know, think about lightening up a little.

Boston, WTF? Fucking New York is mocking you, and that's just not right. (Of course, no one who actually lives in Boston is really all that worked up over the stunt except those who have to feign outrage because of their utterly humorless overreaction, but that's a different story). It's okay to be sensitive about bombs in the post 9/11 world, but it's also okay to tell the media to suck it. Suck it good.

I can't wait to see what all you deviant pranksters come up with for backlash. I'll die a happy man if I wake up tomorrow and find this headline in the Globe:

Copycat Terrorists Bedazzle Back Bay
February 3, 2007 - Mayor Menino received the terrorists' demands today along with a jean jacket emblazoned with what he would later describe as "a great bird of rhinestones soaring in flight superimposed over what kind of looks like an American-flag thing-y."
