Rumblings: America’s Favorite (Least Attractive) City

crash>>> That’s more or less the honor bestowed upon us by Travel + Leisure and oh, the joy: We know that you also simply cannot wait to look at another charticle itemizing the pluses and minuses of our fair city. And then discussing it! Why does it sometimes feel like we’re just Philadelphia, and the rest of the world is a controlling, abusive, obsessive-compulsive, list-making husband that we have to humor when he comes home from work? [Travel+Leisure]
>>> Quick: How many Northern Libertarians does it take to get the botton of a Tootsie pop enormous, seemingly cosmic car wreck? Our guess: 20 demolished cars, 1 med student calling his mom (pictured), and another 15 people to debate whether or not where this happened was “actually” Northern Liberties. [Inky]
>>> And lastly, congrats to Philebrity.tv contributor David Kessler, whose Shadow World series is the subject of today’s Philadelphia Weekly cover. He sure does make those Kenzos beautiful. [PW]

    My own personal zeitgeist says we’re losing the chip on our shoulders – eff the lists, eff the fifth borough BS, eff movetophilly/uwishunu, we are our own person no need for validation and National Geo Next Great-ness. WE LOVE OUR TOWN !
