Introducing: Lego Lady

East Villagers are familiar with Lego Man, who first made an appearance in August, 2017.

Until now, however, there was no Lego Lady.

Until now:

Lego Lady and Lego Dog.

There's even a Lego Dog!

I wonder if there's ever going to be a Lego Baby?

Stuck Outside

The beloved 2 Bros. Pizza, on St. Mark's Place, recently repaired the sidewalk outside their entrance.

They were still open, but how were people going to enter?

These two gents pondered that very question:

Pondering.

Here is a close-up:

Close-up.

All they could do was stare inside.

My Name Is Chair

I was walking past the beloved Coffee Project NY the other day, on East 5th Street, when I saw this stool leaning against the wall:

Leaning against the wall.

Not only was it leaning against the wall, like a person(!), but there was a sign on it:

My name is Chair.

How funny — a stool named Chair!

I bet the bench is named Sonny.

Too Much

You have to wonder what East Villagers are thinking when they open an individual portion of food, like apple sauce.

Do they think, when they open it, it'll be too much to eat in a single sitting? You might think so!

Behold, as seen on East 7th Street:

"I'm full!"

Maybe the solution to this is smaller portions, like spoonfuls?

The extra packaging is a small price to pay for a reduction in food wastage!

The Exploded Car

Speaking of the bad old days, I was walking across East 3rd Street this past Saturday, when I saw this exploded car:

Exploded car.

Naturally, I had to take a look inside:

Front seat.

The back seat was missing:

Back seat missing.

And finally, the rear window:

Rear window.

The rumour about how this happened is preposterous, so I won't repeat it.

Let's just say: Nobody saw nuttin'!

Last Of The Discarded Christmas Trees

Here are the last of my pictures of discarded Christmas Trees.

This one, in Tompkins Square Park, was abandoned a week before Christmas!

December 19.

These two look like twins! (January 16, East 7th Street)

Twins.

This one shed all its needles. (January 17, East 7th Street)

No more needles.

This one too! (January 23, Avenue C)

This one too.

That is all.

Looks Like The Bad Old Days

In a lot of ways, the East Village still looks like it did back in the bad old days.

Take this scene, for instance, on East 7th Street and Second Avenue:

Big mess.

What a mess! A vacant lot, a full dumpster, trash beside the dumpster, trash beside the vacant lot, a dirty car…

The only thing missing is a freegan rummaging through it all!

Cum one! Cum all! To the newest club in the East Village (on East 6th Street), the beloved Club Cumming:

It's true!

I wonder if the owners are related to e. e. cummings?

Women and men(both dong and ding)
summer autumn winter spring
reaped their sowing and went their came
sun moon stars rain

Doors On Doors

You see lots of stuff on top of cellar doors when you're walking around the East Village — usually people eating.

I don't think I've ever seen garbage piled on them though… until now!

Behold, on Avenue B:

Garbage on cellar doors.

Wait a minute… why are there doors on top of the cellar doors to begin with?!

Secret Passageway to the Unknown

I was walking up Avenue A this morning, when I saw something strange, something I've never seen before, something that looked all the world like a secret passageway to the unknown!

Behold:

Secret passageway to the unknown.

Someone must have forgotten to turn on the cloaking device!
