No, not the kind that live on the street and probably have some kind of plight to be told and are the nameless, faceless casualties of the growing upper class.
No, we're talking about Street People, those cool, hip, young, don't you wish you were as good looking and fancy free as they are, Street People.
Each week Street tells us who we should be talking about, talks about them, and then we proceed to talk about them (usually in ways that we would reserve for talking about the girl who totally wears low cut shirts at work, the ho, whatever, she can just kiss my...).
This week: is Gillian Flynn your all around editor, snappy dresser, look at me looking cute in my cute outfit with my cute shoes in my cute poses around cute San Diego, cutie. She's 34 (and admits it!) but looks 24 (and has great highlights) and she edits a bunch of magazines and does a bunch of other stuff, and she's a North County girl (one of those) who doesn't download music cause she's too busy, but her entertainment editor does (cause he's not) and look how cute she is, she's just too busy being cute that's it, and she likes social commentary (CUTE!) and she just hates those geeky guys in spandex who ride bikes (spandex are NOT cute) and old movies and from her play list it looks like she's about 64 and should be wearing pearls (oh that would look so cute on her) and...
Commenter Anonymous is peeved (whatever, that's so note cute): Maybe next time Ms Flynn will remember that some of her readers "could" be that guy on the bike in the spandex and try not to offend...
And commenter Spandex Rules is looking for a fight: Hey, Anonymous, did your spandex cut off circulation to your sense of humor? Lighten up, spandex geek!
And everybody else loves her, blah, blah, blah.
Ooo, ooo, except for Connor (boo, Connor, boo on you) Unapologetic is right. Ms. Flynn's scratchy voice and her unfiltered thoughts have offended more than enough, and though this little profile does make her more likable, it still falls short of saving her.
Whatever, we still think she's cute (so does she).
