A Whole New Foods

I was headed to the Whole Foods at Union Square to pick up some "supplies" when I got a wild hair up my butt and decided to take a long-cut down 23rd Street and then head down to 14th whenever I got bored. As I walked down 23rd Street, three things happened:

1. I went in a store called Shoegasm. All the shoes were ugly and I didn't buy anything. I guess you could say the experiece was anticlimactic. Bwahahaha!

2. I watched a domestic dispute between two crackheads. As they staggered down the street, disgusting white woman with messed up hair and sweatpants yelled at her black boyfriend, "You would do that!? After all I've done for you!?!"

You're starring in your own daytime drama, lady. Except the characters are disturbingly grotesque and no one cares what happens but you (and me I guess, since I'm writing about it). They looked just like Mo Collins and Aries Spears in those Mad TV sketches. Funny how one goes 26 years without seeing a regular crackhead-fight and upon doint so, compares it to an imitation of one. Kind of like eating fried sliced potatoes and saying, "These taste a lot like french fries."

3. I came across the Whole Foods on 7th Avenue. It's a little smaller than the Union Square one, and much less of a clusterfuck. Sweet.
