GEORGE: This a new couch?

DR. SELMAN: So what brings you back?

GEORGE: Well, it’s been six months.

HILLY: Well—

GEORGE: I’m a little groggy, I have to admit, because I had to work last night. Went to this benefit at the Central Park Zoo. What animal did you like best?

HILLY: This huge porcupine and the little fox and an owl that was just gorgeous.

GEORGE: And Al Gore was there.

HILLY: Whatever.

DR. SELMAN: Personally, I’ll leave the petting of wild animals to other people, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!

GEORGE: And then as usual, I started getting a little rambunctious, didn’t want to go home, so I put Hilly in a cab round midnight, and ended up in some apartment sitting around with kids half my age playing this game I invented.  read more »

In light of other publications' recent instructions about office dress code, we thought it was time for our own in-house reminder about appropriate attire.

Lady reporters, as per the recent slew of gossip-girl-about-town "novels," are required to wear 2.5+ inch bitch heels and a constant air of anxiety and lustiness mixed with exasperation. (Yoga mats are optional attire.) Male reporters are required to wear something horribly pleated up front, the scent of bourbon, and must also wear tidy sweater vests and "unusual" blazers, just this side of professorial.

Male and female editors both are permitted to bare midriffs, intentionally or otherwise. Male editors must shave at least once per month.

The web editor is instructed to wear a white belt at all times; also, a t-shirt promoting a band that is based in Brooklyn which was purchased at a concert in 2002 or 2003, New York's "irony is dead, no really, Graydon Carter said so" years. White pants on Fridays are mandatory, with flesh-toned thongs or underwear beneath. Your amount of muffintop-overspill is at your discretion.

George Gurley is required to wear human shoes in the office.

The editor-in-chief must wear khaki pants and should decorate his blue button-down with no fewer than two coffee stains each day.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
