How would you enjoy joining Portnoy for a scorched soy porterhouse pork four-courser at Koi? Glorify your source, but donāt make it feel forced, of course. And try the borscht!
facebook reminded me that today a few years back, august 2nd 2012, i met a time traveler
dude wearing extremely stereotypical hipster gear (plaid scarf, cut-off jeans, vest over ironic tee, fedora) but looked about 35ish.
he walked up to me, this was in 2012 when i ascribed to my assigned gender and was very clearly dressed in a feminine way with my hair all done up and heavy makeup and girly clothes, and he said āexcuse me sir are you good with your history?ā
he punctuates the sentence by showing me a little silver spoon with the new york skyline on it. i decide against correcting him.
having JUST graduated high school, i said ākindaā
he nods and says a little quietly āwhen was it that the.. erm..ā he struggles for a second, then recognition lights up his eyes. āah, the two towers collapsed?ā
iām jolted by the bus coming to a stop. i blink a few times and say āseptember 11th. 2001.ā
he says āright. of course. thank you.ā and immediately gets off the bus.
