Unfortunately, the older gentleman working there has been consistently rude every time I've gone in. It's not just one bad day--his attitude has been the same on multiple visits, and I've also noticed him treating other customers the same way.

I hope management addresses this, because the store deserves a friendlier and more welcoming atmosphere.

In an effort to generate incremental revenue many of the sites I frequent (NY Post, DailyMail, MLB…read moreTrade Rumors) have installed partial paywalls to sequester their best content/columnists behind a paid, members-only rope line. I get it. Quality contents costs money... meaning the days of "everything is free on the net" are coming to a resounding close. The problem is that while I frequent those sites for their entertainment value, I'm hard pressed to rationalize an extra $30 bucks a month for content that doesn't have the immediacy and credibility of those sources that I pay for willingly such as the NYT, WSJ and The Economist to name a few. It's probably fair to say that their paywall gambit counts on their advertising continuing to be placed by AdTech "bots" rather that human buyers who might consider more subjective reader engagement metrics such as overall quality of the environments and a more robust match with client objectives. Again, even though I enjoy their entertainment value, it's amazing what you can learn to live without. After a month, I barely remember that they exist. Five stars for amnesia.

It's like Donald Trump's contention that he belongs on Mount Rushmore. I voted for the guy but that's just a resounding N.O. I also suspect that's why my subscription is only four bucks a month.

Real-world news has become so unhinged that in some cases The Onion's satire has predicted the future. One such instance was when there were 2 and 3 blade razors, The Onion ran a headline saying, "F everything, we're doing Five Blades", shortly after Gillette announced the five blade Fusion razor. In 2000, they ran a headline, " Man Consults Internet About Everything ". With AI, etc, it's safe to say that their satire successfully predicted the future. They also ran a satirical headline that said a chocolate company had been ordered to pay "obese Americans" a settlement of $135 Billion. A few years later Nutella was ordered to pay for misleading marketing that made people think Nutella was healthy for them. I personally get a kick out of satire...that is until it becomes reality!

When we call the paper a angry lady usually tell us that our gate is locked (we don't have a lock mechanism on the gate) and that's why he don't deliver the paper when the truth is that he just toss it out his window. I don't understand why the paper think they do us a huge favor deliver? They pay the delivery driver and we pay the paper so nothing is free and should not be treated as a favor.

An option was checked by default and it was snuck into the design and because no one was expecting an extra logo to pop up, it got printed. When I noticed this extra logo and called them - they had a terrible attitude, saying most people prefer to have this logo inserted in their work and it's common practice for union printing companies to add extra logos when printing work by default and they've been doing that for 15 years. No remedy was offered and basically said if we want it fixed we would have pay for a new expedited order. If you don't want a printer to be adding their own logo as a default to your work - I would suggest you use someone else. - - - Giving your business negative feedback does not equate to anti-union sentiment please. What a joke. Who taught you how to respond to criticism? Netanyahu? When printers send back digital proof - people are typically checking for color, layout, cutoffs etc. People don't expect your PRINTER to be adding in extra logos to your design.

It is cool to have a free paper that will entertain you for more than 5 minutes. It just keeps you in the know of what is going on. Ads in there also for places like Barcade, tell of upcoming events East/West beer ngiht and so on. I was actually revising and looking over that very issue again earlier today. (Jan5-18, cover had a story of 48 hours with a certain rock star). That title in itself makes it blog worthy and worth an actual look at the article which was very interesting. One guy actually talked about his waking up in the morning routines of eating cinnabons then alot of other healthy crap like squash, broccoli, beats, and kale but then use of some kinds of drugs. Ironic in that he seemed like a health nut with the food he actually consumed but used drugs and abused alcohol left and right. The bar and restaurant directory in the back makes alot of Brooklyn bars seem very appealing. I have also seen a few spots in there of places us yelp eliters got to sample at one point or another like Nita Nita and Woodwork. Thanks for the Reco's guys. Oh yeah then there is a sex with the natural redhead section on the back page, it is usually very funny stuff that explicitly involves penetration and sexual operations.

I highly admire the "This Week in Pictures" emails which "highlights some of the most compelling images of North America, Asia and the Pacific, Latin America, Europe, Africa." Four stars for The Associated Press (AP) because the emails are plastered with too many annoying ads.
