Comments of the Week: Jane Hotel Edition

We seem to have struck a nerve after our evening at the Jane Hotel. Rather than choose one, we figured we would give several of our favorite comments of the week.

  • there goes this place - where
  • Done. Deaded. Over. It was bound to happen, just hoped it wouldn't happen so quickly - oof
  • maybe you should have reported on the greatness of the jane a month ago when it opened. you really just fucked it over now. - angry
  • Thanks for handing over the place on a silver platter to all of the douchebags out there that think they're VIP scenesters. Ugh and annoyed. -peyotegems
  • assholes - xxx

Makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside, doesn't it!

Comment Of The Week

In response to the rebranding of Merkato 34 C, a reader writes:

how bout the fact that they owe their employees and promoters thousands upon thousands of dollars. they have no idea how to manage a business. I personally know 5 different employees and promoters that in total are owed over 15k by the owners. Rather than reopen with a new name they should just stand across the street in front of griffin and pray that one of the guidos done with their night of fist pumping with throw them a quarter.

Comment of the Week: Award Winner!

Congratulations to commenter Magus, who commented on the original post detailing the GIGANTIC contest:

I did not go to a New England liberal arts college majoring in the post-modern deconstruction of East African folk tales , get a borderline minimum wage job in Manhattan as I pursue my artistic career in neo-expressionist dance, and live in a five bedroom/ half bathroom eight floor walk-up in the East Village to be forced to subject myself to this form of dehumanizing contest merely to watch a movie I will be watching anyways and then have the distasteful displeasure of bumping shoulders with a gaggle of tax-supported investment bankers at an overrated (or so my poetry circle's buddy gay friend's fashion adviser tells me) club.

That said, I would love to win comment of the week for the best blog in the city.

You are our Comment of the Week and have won passes to the Gigantic Gen Art Premiere and After Party. Email tips@downbythehipster.com to claim your prize!

Comment of the Week: Bumming on Minetta

Keith McNally's Canadian mistake has one commenter feeling sad:

...Are you telling me Keith McNally doesn't know what bourbon is? The guy is offered $100 million for this incredible business he's built and he makes a rookie error on the menu at his new place? Would be like Bill Gates not knowing what a hard drive is. Ugh. Mr. McNally: for the sake of bourbon lovers across the city--fix your menu.
