(It’s not your average annual report.)
April
Thor, CocoNUT, and I launch cVillain.com, and we’re off. At first, we write about Downtown Grille’s “social” scene, Mas’ service, the culture of the Foxfield Races, Mono Loco’s waits, OAR fans, and local real estate marketing. Not too many people care. YET.
Thor also starts the practice of posting what others should know better than to put online for us to find and exploit: homemade Foxfield videos on Youtube. It is not appreciated in its time– enjoy!
May
Thor, cocoNUT, and I cover a lot of topics that go unnoticed but will be re-posted and discussed later by the community: local barbecue, businesses on West Main, dating in Charlottesville, gelato, restaurant secrets, a singles scene poll, criticism of local media, and promotion of local non-profits’ fundraisers. We toy with local personalities and journalists to get a rise out of someone.
We see about as much traffic as the 250 Bypass… at 4 in the morning. We don’t mind. Our moms tell us we’re special.
It is in May that Thor and I meet TheUpstart, Lys, danpri, the magic rat, downtown oy, Mr. Bingley, Chad Day, Iron, and Maioming.
June
TheUpstart kicks off the month with a review of just-opened Maya, the opening of which was highly anticipated on our site, in print, and in print again. I see it as a milestone for the site because TheUpstart defines how cVillain.com does what a print medium can not: as an anonymous community member, she can speak openly about her experience as a diner at a restaurant, as soon as it opens, with a critical view unbiased by advertising revenue or personal income.
We keep at it. I spark controversy when I make speculations about youth “goth” culture on the mall. Thor’s and my concern about site traffic is assuaged when readers come out of nowhere to argue with me. We see unprecedented site traffic and response– 18 comments! I decide against posting video I shot a few years ago interviewing the youths because they are likely minors at the time, but we begin to appreciate the potential for healthy debate, the importance of fact-checking, and the fun of spending hours of our days writing about Charlottesville. We also meet Ethan, our resident expert on the scene and a damn fine cynic and debater.
As a true townie, a title I wish I could claim, Thor has always had a sensible approach to “scene.” His postulation about “scene” at Ten is interesting– he points to great people behind great restaurants, a common theme in restaurant discussions on the site. Also, we see a commenter post erroneous information about the X Lounge, and the X Lounge management corrects it. A precedent is set, and an open, truth-seeking community is formed.
TheUpstart writes about local radio, and deejays and community listeners voice their opinions, loud and clear. I promote the Festival of the Photograph (then enjoy it with a rowdy bunch of photographers from out of town!). Maioming promotes Planned Parenthood’s 80s Prom and a House Arrest Party for Friends of Burma Charlottesville.
The food reviews continue: Thor does Zo Ca Lo, I do salads and guacamole, KCB does the Nook, BusRider does Jinx’s, Thor does the Downtown Grille, TheUpstart does Horse & Hound, I do Enoteca, and critique does Vivace (to mixed reviews of critique).
My favorite post of the month? On June 14, I ask why Charlottesville doesn’t have a Hooter’s then defend Hooter’s waitresses’ and my feminism to a feminist, and I claim victory. Shortly after, the C-VILLE asks why Charlottesville doesn’t have a strip club on its cover and gets a letter to the editor or two. Thor wonders if the stories are linked. The world will never know.
July
I stop being so paranoid about getting caught being “Lilith” and start having fun with content. I introduce new-comers to craigslist, ask about match.com and IY, question the need for surveillance vis-a-vis fountain foreplay, laud the presence of Club 216 in Charlottesville for being more than a “gay club”, start asking “were you there?”, review Artini, and see what people have to say about Take It Away and Christian’s. If anyone would like to weigh in about a place to get a good, cheap pedicure, I’m still waiting!
Thor starts the Great West Main Restaurant Debate of 2007, designs quite possibly the funniest and most accurate cartoon satire Charlottesville’s yet seen, expresses his annoyance with the smelly people at Miller’s, polls us for our Artini picks then reviews it, and posts a video of my favorite New Order song EVER.
cocoNUT makes a surprise comeback, too, with reviews of Pad Thai and Petit Pois. He also riles readers with a post about bar etiquette– and the practice of cVillain.com community self-regulating begins, Warren-G style.
August
Early in the month, we receive an e-mail announcement about OXO staying open for late night. I am out of town (curses!), Thor is too hungover to go, and out of nowhere, Iron makes a comeback and writes a review. Iron, seriously, look at what you started! TheUpstart watches out for us, too, writing about the Charlottesville Music Showcase at Orbit’s. Yupster writes about static line jumping with her dad at Skydive Orange. Meanwhile, Thor and I become regulars at OXO… a dance floor for me, a scene for him, and pretty people all around.
Thor proves to be every bit the superhero, starting the month challenging Charlottesville gangs. When he takes on the rapist story under a bold heading, the C-VILLE picks up Thor’s case, and he responds brazenly. Thor goes investigative again with the water restriction story, catches the Hook’s error in confusing photos of two local female civics, and critiques the Cavalier Daily’s reporting. He then makes me laugh myself off my chair with a “HOLY SNAP DOUBLE POP,” Jenna Bush is getting hitched to a guy who’s probably part of the Dardenfestation of the downtown mall and a video of Miss South Carolina’s pageant Q&A. If you haven’t seen it on Youtube yet, enjoy.
I think I find my voice in August. I try to keep things positive by writing about under-rated downtown businesses and the underground scene at C&O’s basement bar, reviewing our local brunch hotspots, and pointing to good press in national media. I undo all of my good work with a post about lingerie that elicits 36 mostly angry comments from both sexes that think teeny tiny lingerie is somehow worth the cost and not related to sex. I go commando for a month to protest. Just kidding! Everyone thought my argument was contrived. But if you can believe it, I was a late bloomer and didn’t blossom my first couple of years of college. It was honest, after all.
By this point, our cast of commenters also includes KCB, Dave, crud buster, Divine Ms. K, cavumine, happy hooker, Always the Townie, Tim, BusRider, ThatGrrl, Waldo Jaquith, Patience, Stormy, dijonbray, XSV, Stanley, mau, Taliesin, Marshall, and fat and happy.
September
Thor and I always knew that “gossip” would require sources to tell us about it and people to discuss it. It picks up in September. Thor has insider info about a possible Trader Joe’s location on 29, then the future of the Hardware Store space, and beer and bbq. TheUpstart makes a shocking allusion to a Bruce Springsteen tour date at John Paul Jones Arena.
Thor also proves it’s hot for guys to be in the know with fashion when he asks, “Is it okay for guys to wear designer jeans in Charlottesville?” and reviews the Downtown Business Association’s fashion show. And he establishes his authority on coffee (I’m sorry, “cafe”) with his round-up of the local grind.
I play it safe with posts like weekend previews, weekend reviews, press for Jefferson wine, a First Friday write-up, coverage of a Mark Warner fundraiser, and my pick for Greek food and Belgian beer, Basil.
I mostly spend the month wondering if people ever click on my external links to New Yorker articles and 80s bands’ music videos on YouTube.
Big news for Thor and me mid-month: a less than favorable review in the Hook’s Dish. He reacts with a sense of humor, I respond with media theory, and we press on. (We always appreciate press.)
October
October is CRAZY!
Hash House Harriers? Hump day poetry? Cross-dressing at WNRN? cVillain vocab? Apple butter festivals? I write about it all before I can even make it through the first week.
People start to get more emotionally attached. (I think.) Comments about chivalry in Charlottesville practically warrants Cliff’s Notes. We ask more questions, too, on topics ranging from clothes to smoking, running man to hooking up on Carter’s Mountain.
The community continues to derive an obscene amount of pleasure from creating lists and establishing the best [fill in the blank] in the city. When oy posts his top 10 favorite meals, we all start posting our top 10 favorite meals. Stanley asks about the best burrito, and 33 comments later, Chipotle’s corporate PR guy, Phil, visits the site to weigh in. He then posits that pineapple and jalapenos are the best pizza toppings (together), and 30 comments later, we remain undecided. Consensus is reached, however, when Five Guys and Riverside appear to tie for “best burger.”
I collect data on bar specials. TwoOFour regales us with a list of “prevalences.” Thor lists local blogs he likes.
October is our biggest news month yet. It’s even the month that Thor names news summaries “newsies.”
On October 24, we “sell out” to DeParis Redinger, and everyone flips out. I sit back and watch, because, well, it’s funny!
We meet hipster-doofus (and many other cVillains) in October, but his name is timm-ay. His reincarnation is a glorious one, indeed.
More big news: cVillains finally meet each other. (”We.” Like we’ll tell.) indie dork proposes a “clandestine meet up” on October 3, and on Tuesday, October 9, it happens at South Street.
In other news… We have a drought. The Crozet Music Festival and Chocolate Festival happen. The Virginia Film Festival hosts Turturro and Sayles. Barack Obama campaigns to a crowd of 4,000+.
Finally, C-VILLE decides we are newsworthy.
November
After all of the excitement of October, our concept of what deserves to be “news” is completely skewed– getting high from “poo” elicits nary a “meh,” and falling acorns on the mall are a threat to our safety.
And yet, when we are hit with the worst news imaginable, with the shocking and horrific death of Jayne McGowan, we find ourselves at a loss for words. Thor expresses his condolences on the site, and sets up a fund in her memory from our readers.
We press on. But our thoughts are and will continue to be with Jayne’s family and loved ones.
Thor and I make difficult editorial decisions with content, and we feel similarly about a lot of issues. Take, for example, e-mail requests to remove comments on the grounds of giving away too much information. We are loathe to do it. Why? On November 7, Thor notices that cVillains’ comments on the Hook’s blog at readthehook.com have been deleted, and TheUpstart realizes hers is edited. We still can’t prove it, though. The goal is not to need to moderate– and to do so sparingly.
We also feel strongly about anonymity. The Code happens. If you haven’t read it, read it.
Otherwise, it’s an amusing month. TwoOFour takes us on the Ultimate Beer Lovers Tour and pursues the BEST Salad, and we spend half our time talking about beer and salads and the other half talking like we’re six beers deep on an empty stomach save a leaf of arugula. This is what we do best, apparently. I start giving out awkward conversation topics if the beer stops working. Thursdays are the new Thursday. Puff the Magic Dragon eats homework. We re-open the downtown space debate and local newsweeklies’ old news. A drug dealer gets busted. The Rock is spotted around town. Indie dork tree-hugs. You know. The usual.
I also head back to some restaurants to update previous reviews: Eppie’s, Ten, Zocalo, and Zinc, and OXO.
Cripsy Duck of Charlottesville music journalism fame makes a cameo on November 18 and debuts on the site with a review of the Falsies.
My favorite cameo happens on November 8, when Thor posts “Monument with ‘I wish my wife was this dirty’ Wins Award”. When belmont yo speculates about the reaction of “toilet brush guy,” the gentleman who voluntarily cleans the monument weekly, Kevin Cox, appears on the scene with a clever, “Toilet Brush Guy here.” It’s one of the most eloquently written comments to date.
As soon as we come together to sit on the pity pot of Charlottesville’s dating scene (twice) and Thor officially breaks it off with OXO, interesting people suddenly show up. This isn’t to say that people up to this point haven’t been interesting. But I think it’s fair to say that anyone who announces her arrival on a site as follows is, in fact, quite interesting: cue Floozy.
Silmo Syrup’s arrival is equally amusing. Not his first comment but his fifth, he writes:
I too am antiquated but I will endeavor to attend. Do they serve “crank”?
Parlie shows up in October with this idea for our cVillain rendez-vous, then stays at it in November:
Caroline shows up in September and gets our attention as the first to stand up to Ethan. She really gets our attention, though, in November, when she writes about girl/girl and guy/guy make-outs in bars.
It doesn’t make any of us sluts, we’re just gettin’ cozy and havin’ some fun.
Yes. Yes we are. The stage is set for an interesting December.
Finally, I spend too much time creating an index of restaurants. Look at it. Bookmark it. I will continue to link to it as often as possible forever.
More new regulars from September on: Blanco Nino, batesville ho, eastender, cb (aka cbob), evenstar, Samantha, buster, hipster-doofus, sha-nay-nay, tidalbomb, Cojo, colfer, Toolshed, hoodatbe, mintyfresh, Horatio, Starks, Donk, UVa LaGrape, Highly Opinionated High, maude, df, mc, Lu Sid, stuart, Frenchy, duckduckgoose, Cville Gobbler, Smiley, and, obviously, Floozy, Silmo Syrup, parlie, and caroline. My favorite alias: Tuffy McFucklebee. Did I miss anyone? The grand total of cVillains plus the supervillains is just shy of 70.
December
These days, people just hit on each other a lot. It’s cute. On most days, I wonder if the gang will tire of us (or each other) and leave. On the other days, I wonder if they’ll sign off and suck face already. Maybe they already have. That would be fantastic.
Somewhere in between the sexual advances, we see some really fun posts.
Best of the month: The Great Charlottesville Cookie Round-Up by the Baked Goods Brigade. Thor shines his thunderbolts on Continental Divide. I apologize to Mas for hyperbole of epic proportions before we knew what would come of the site. Oy mines our cavities to see what our sweet tooths love most. Thor, being a god and living in the clouds and all, breaks the snow story before you even see a snowflake. TheUpstart gets us to Christmas party-crash. Silmo posts something that makes no sense. A now-dead squirrel causes a small power black-out. Thor and Christian get you free coffee. mintyfresh covers the Beer Run grand opening. The magic rat gets everyone out of a rut. Silmo requests a Golden Toilet Award. We speculate about a U.S. Zeppelin tour.
Things don’t always stay light, but Thor and I try to keep the peace. It’s what mythological gods and godesses do, after all. Duh.
And hello, WE HAVE A PARTY!
December is the biggest month for cVillain yet, with 100,000 page hits and recognition in the Hook’s Annual Review. Remember to send us photos for our competition. We’re interactive, didn’t you know?
Thank you again to the entire community for making cVillain a success in 2007. We are appreciative of your loyalty (and humor) each day, and you make it all worthwhile for us. Please don’t be shy about sending in suggestions or posting entire articles. It’s YOUR site!

give lilith a candy bar. this was the best post ever!
I added “cork” to the title. Please, e-mail subscribers, take note of that.
I’ve always said I wanted to be an omniscient supervillain. (With wings, of course.) Apparently, it takes a lot of work.
are we supervillains now?
can I just add that the whole fun thing about this site is the comments and how people participate in everything? we are working on a quick fix to the writing problem on the backend. Please email us articles that you want us to post in your name!
Wow. Golf clap! I don’t even want to think about how long you’ve been working on this Lilith.
oh we have.
great job lilith! you’re next in line to have your face sucked
I missed bashing on OAR?
I missed posting that the Hash Housers were told not come to Kiki anymore?
Maybe I should move to getting email notification of new posts. Or maybe I should just phone it in from work and hit refresh more often.
Breathe Lilith, breathe…wow thanks for the summary. You owe me one BTB.
Well done to Supervillains and reg’lar villains. Here’s to looking forward to more in 2008.
All of that makes me wish I’d found this site a whole lot sooner. Thank you. New Years resolution #11. Start more original threads myself.
wow……I just realized how entertained I’ve been
gold star for lillith. get yourself a jagerbomb at lunch. you’ve earned it.
i second all of the above. give this girl a pat on the pack and a shot of patron.
ps, oy, definitely dinner asap. got caught up in the world of international public relations yesterday and didn’t get a chance to reply.
Thanks, guys! And no thanks to shots!
right’o EE - shall I make reservations for tomorrow? I’ll give you a call or drop you a note this evening.
I wanna start an original thread or six. How does one go about that?
I’ve loved lurking here and making the occasional post, hopefully lots more to come in ‘08. The posts have been helpful, and the comments are always entertaining!
E-mail me and Thor both– he checks gossip@cvillain.com, I check cvillainlilith@gmail.com. Depending on who’s available, someone will post it. We WILL do some light editing, but we assure you it’s to make you look good– punctuation, syntax, that kind of thing.
So now I need some ideas. How do you get those? Same emails?
Yeah, just put us both on the recipient list.
sheesh, april? how time flies when you’re having gossipy fun!
i’m not sure if this is good or bad, but only the second and fourth of those foxfield videos are still available. i can’t wait to see what gets shoved into the annals of history this year. (sponsors’ section is totally the way to go, if you do go.)
when are we going to start paying attention to this interesting poll currently going? RESPOND, PEOPLE. I FEEL THE NEED TO EXTRAPOLATE.
finally, how’s everyone digging this heat wave? i had to dig my shorts for my morning jog. didn’t someone tell the weather it was january?
Go, married people! Win that poll!
People must’ve been disappointed to see a not-so-flattering prediction for the Flat, because it’s 33 degrees and there were at least six people outside a few minutes ago. Those things don’t make themselves, either…
if the flat disappears, i’ll throw myself in front of a train at second street. sorry, i’ve been reading anna karenina.
i feel dirty for flirting with the clearly high-school-age boys who work there, but they’re equally as delicious as the food they serve. what was it that the catholic church said? look but don’t touch? hmm…
You really know how how to pat yourself on the back. And why shouldn’t you? It takes a lot of courage to write that the C & O is a cool place to hang. Way to go out on a limb! And CocoNut is definitely groundbreaking. There’s a risque picture in Mas! What a timely update. Here’s another hot lead : it’s rumored that Dave worked at Miller’s. Run with it!
Hey if lilith can spend the time to put together this comprehensive list of practically everything thats been posted, maybe Thor can spend a few minutes generating an overview of poll results for the year? Just a thought.
Evenstar, I prefer to say this is an example of “tooting our own horn.” Most publications do a year in review. And we spent so much time writing stuff no one ever read!
Hey evenstar, shouldn’t you be discounting rumors that Led Zep will be playing Bonnaroo? Or, did the stick up your ass wake up on the wrong side of the bed this morning?
Come on evenstar, lighten up. The intentional or unintentional occasional bit of mis-information is part of the charm of this site. Who can forget Mel Gibson’s stirring performance in Dances With Wolves, or Wilco as a jam band?
For what it’s worth, I liked the review.
(if only I could say that about coming back to work - I think I may play the lotto tonight)
hey evenstar - any hot leads on who is headlining bonnaroo?
http://www.mirror.co.uk/showbiz/2007/12/31/led-zep-for-festival-89520-20270256/
evenstar~bitter much?
I LOVE YOU GUYS!
evenstar would never hang out here.
I thought we already establish that evenstar works for coran? Poor guy needs to get out his aggression somewhere
I love this review L and second H-D’s call for Thor to do some work for once
oh eat it all of ya’lls
Tsk tsk Looks like someone needs a little refresher in villain-etiquette.
Poster teach thyself http://cvillain.com/?p=633
Jeezz folks, welcome to the internet.
See what happens when you disagree?
you reap what you sow, gobbler. You want a debate over the merits of an idea, great - you come here and spew attitude, you’ll get attitude right back.
Very bitter. I don’t work for Coran. Maybe that’s why. Or my bra is too small…
I guess Thor, Lilith, and CocoNut are above satire. At least, it seems that way by y’all’s vitriolic response.
didn’t come across as satirical, evenstar. Don’t worry about it too much, satire is one of the most difficult things to write…
yes…
Indeed, Mr Swift. Where does it rank? (since you seem to know)
I guess I shoul have written they’re above heckling.
Lackey.
Tommy d. : Robert Plant will be playing w/ A. Krause.
oy must protect them at all costs… it’s kinda cute
I’m a minion - hopefully this year I’ll be promoted to lackey, though usually that requires tossing Thor’s salad…
Don’t be messin’ wit my palindromic minion homey!
Oh yes, lets all go back and post redneck rants on Craigslist RnR! So much better! Led Zep Sux! Disco Rules! Meet you in the school parking lot after school dude, I am so kicking your ass!
Please.
This is a good thing, *as is* disagreement and verbal banter. So lets all just get the sand out of our vaginas and proceed apace. Thor a & Lil deserve a little credit and deference for their efforts. Chill with the ill will, bill. Its all just asci good times til someone gets an eye poked out (least thats what mom used to email me).
Heaven forfend we mock Thor or Lilith.
Dude, it’s the God of Thunder and foresaken first wife of Adam - are these really the sort of people you want to mock casually, mere mortal?
That, and a well placed smiley face always helps to distinguish playful teasing from disdain in a flash ; )
well, I do have it on good authority that The God of Thunder was given his moniker by the vikings because of his uncontrollable flatulence…
so, let me see if I have this right - mocking Thor and Lilith is ok, mocking evenstar is not.
Right, gotcha - we now return you to your regularly scheduled hypocrisy
Evenstar! I am so sorry I guess I had you confused with the guy who was lecturing people about why some classic rock band would never play c-ville or bonaroo or whatever the fuck
You seem like a nice person. Let’s start over.
“You wanna makeout?” WAIT! No … not what I wanted to ask. Shit!
Sorry. I’ll try to be better.
Oy : exactly! Is that so much to ask?
all i heard was “LET’S GO HOKIES!”
i lay myself at your altar…
but you never did ask! We’ll just consider this to be you asking (well, begging, nay, groveling) for my permission. Granted. Eve Mk1 and the farting viking are now on their own. Have at them, my little pit-bull.
53 - niiiiice one oy. ha ha
evenstar~ thats Alison KRAUSS
so here’s your chance, set the record straight for us, I thought you said they were NOT playing…..now we hear they are, but you were so sure….please share with us some more of your knowledge about this event. I know Robert Plant is touring with Alison Krauss, are you suggesting that it will NOT be Led Zep, but RP and AK instead?
silm, hipdoof, oy, lys, b’yo…..what’s up? Not one
STFU?? Are we gettin’ soft guys?
Caroline, If evenstar had just wandered in off the street and picked on lilith or Thor, we might’ve jumped on him/her a little harder, but since they’ve been around a while I’m willing to give’em the benefit of the doubt and just assume they’re havin’ a bad day. That being said, feel free to throw out a STFU if the need to overwhelms you.
I just don’t think they want to lead off the ‘best of 2008′ review with their blown Led Zep prediction.
Oh stfu, caroline.
i feel like i just got yelled at by my dad.
b’yo, you grumpy ol bastid….stfu! I mean that in the most loving way
Caroline: I don’t know who to tell to shut the f up b/c I don’t know what’s going on. Evensar has such spunk and balls (mmmm… spunk & balls. Do they serve that at Zinc?) that I wanna support her or him. Her snarkism keeps things interesting. And I think its good when people mock T&L on occassion. It democratizes the site.
Can someone put in italics that time Evenstar was going on about how LZ was NOT going to play Bonnaroo and post it next to a paragraph about how LZ is actually going to be at Bonnaroo? Cuz that’d be sweet.
Representative Republics the site. Democracies are doomed to failure. Mob rule…not so good. “A pure democracy can admit no cure for the mischiefs of faction. A common passion or interest will be felt by a majority, and there is nothing to check the inducements to sacrifice the weaker party. Hence it is, that democracies have ever been found incompatible with personal security or the rights of property; and have, in general, been as short in their lives as they have been violent in their deaths.”
Not to go all Madison on your asses. It’s a pet peeve of mine. Flash forward 6 months from now and we’re having a Jets/Sharks choreographed rumble in the parking lot outside of South Street. So please no democracies here.
To what Silmo just said about it being better if Thor and I get mocked a little, yeah, go for it. But remember that we know we’re not fooling anyone into thinking we’re gods or even end-all authorities on food and culture. We write about experiences and observations, and people give their opinions. The few, rare times I’ve posted something contrarian that readers have heavily protested, I was amazed no one counter-posted. You can expect a daily feed from Thor and me, and I’d like to see a daily post from someone else. If you don’t agree with something, please refrain from giving us the “you suck” and give your opinion in a separate post instead. Scared to find out what people will say back to you? Welcome to the internet!
Anyway, evenstar, I’d find it hard to believe you don’t enjoy this just a little, since you keep coming back.
I am soooo confused.
stfu silmo
I had to rewrite that entire comment because it didn’t make sense. It still might not. My head hurts.
same to you C
L - what is this “rewritting” comments bull shit. Live with your mistakes like the rest of us mere mortals
I am a total fuckwit
STOP REWRITING MY POSTS LILITH!
that was awesome…..
Although, I would like to see a good old-fashioned rumble. And Mel Gibson did kick all kinds of ass in Dances With Wolves.
Hahahahahaha Silmo
i would like to place an order for 3 medium sized “welcome to the internet” t-shirts.
How about a towel that says that?
What about “his” and “her” Thor/Lilith wet blankets for your home? Surely they’re in the Land’s End catalog.
we should make and give out tshirts with that on the back
where’s my shirt?!?
“lets go hokies”
t-shirt orders
concerns over led-zep
better read the rules
rednecks
RANT!
ADMIN SAYS: PERSONAL ATTACKS ARE NOT ALLOWED….REDACTED, sets up at the City Market in Charlottesville on Saturdays. I would never again buy from him as he is not only inconsiderate of his fellow vendors, but is consistently very rude & inexplicably hostile to them as well. He’s had several complaints against him, including mine. It would greatly please me, and I’m sure others as well, if he would find another venue for his TERRIBLE attitude. The City Market is a great place with wonderful people, yet this extremely disagreeable individual is the proverbial fly in the ointment. If this board had a rating system, he’d get a very large “F” for his constant RUDENESS to everybody! I’m surprised it hasn’t affected his business because he is such an ASSHOLE!
What does he try to sell?
I’ve heard it’s crotchless knickers with scratchy lace and novelty buzzing/rotating items shaped like famous national monuments. All organic of course.
How are the merchants chosen for the Market anyway? I’ve heard some chatter about applying, but who decides, when, and how long does a vendor stay on?
What’s up with all the Lazarus posts lately? Its hard enough for me to keep up with the new ones…
lilith would’ve never let this happen..
THE POST BIT ME.
/MADE ME ASK QUESTION.
This dead guy bit me and advised my comment demanded moderation. It was weird.
Moderator zombies.
Weird? You are now “one of them”.
