rm | reasons I should not wear cute dresses

I was just as the newsstand buying stamps to mail a letter to Patty when a dude came and leaned down to grab a paper, I assumed, to pay for it.

Instead he grabbed the entire stack of Backstage's and sauntered off, until I gave chase. What the fuck I would have done if I'd caught the guy, I dunno, but I suppose I would have figured it out. Anyway, he went into the subway and escaped onto an N Train. Pants and my fall boots and I could have done it, I'm telling you. But seriously, this is New York, normally other people help. Apparently Disneyfication comes with people not giving a shit.

Anyway, I understand that it's more hassle than it's worth for the woman who runs the newsstand to file a police report, and she says this happens all the time. But it just makes me so mad, especially because he got away with shit on the watch of two women in part because I stepped out of his way to be courteous as I thought he was about to make a purchase.

Grrrrrrrrr.
