Spat on the Hat

You may have seen this already, but via Gawker there is a great post that reprints a Park Slope parents' listserv argument about a missing "boy's" hat. Highlarious.

In other disturbing news, I hear that Park Slope parents are known for bringing their young'uns to bars, as if they were pets or something. This heinous practice has apparently spread to D.C.; a good friend informed me a few weeks ago that she was not allowed to smoke at a bar around 11pm on a weeknight because a toddler was in residence. We need to nip the bud on this practice right here and now, or I fear we may be witness to a generation even more self-absorbed than the Boomers, if that is indeed possible.
