Sweet, three new magazines to subscribe too, all focusing on the lifestyles of wealthy Washingtonians! I already treat the Washingtonian like my Bible, but who can't else can't get their fill of luxury magazines that show how DC's rich and richer spend their not-so-hard-earned cash?

They even have the perfect target audience:
"The beauty of those caption magazines is people who are in it will buy it," he
said. "And those who want to be in it will buy it."

AKA the douche bags and the people who are too poor or too boring to be douche bags. Where can I sign up?

Winningest quote from the article: "Celebrity is the sex of the 21st century as we become a more voyeuristic society," said Husni, chairman of the university's journalism department. "And where is there a better place to be a voyeur than in D.C.?"

  • It's so like Julie Cooper and Newport Living! P.S. The Washingtonian failed to name Columbia Heights as one of the best places to live. What gives??

  • Perhaps they have a homicide limit? I just don't know. It could also be that the city doesn't pick up our recylcing. Fuckers.

  • Yeah I guess all those people putting up McMansions don't want their children getting shot in the yard...

  • First of all, there are, like, a billion better places to be a voyeur than DC. That said, it's so cool that you guys are hardcore enough to live in a place that's not going to be featured in these so amazingly elitist magazines. Way to represent. J.

  • 1. It would be a lie to say that if I could afford a nicer area in DC, I still wouldn't move there. A pure lie.

    2. Jake, we need to find you a good woman.

    3. Jake, I will read your copies of the gossip rags during the OC's commercial breaks .
