Well, in the latest sign of the coming apocalypse, two women jump Sponge Bob Squarepants in this video posted this morning by the folks at TMZ. There's really not much more to say, is there?

Mahsa Saeidi-Azcuy, a 29-year-old assistant district attorney in Brooklyn who's currently on The Apprentice, has resigned from her legal gig to focus on, we guess, being the best apprentice she can be. Or on being a star. Which is happening!!! Apparently, jurors had started to recognize her, which made being in the courtroom awkward. 
Chichi (aka Uncle Chichi or "Cheech"), the West Village poodle who is possibly the oldest dog in the world, has recovered from his illness and appeared with his owners today on morning blah-fest Good Morning America. He seemed to be doing pretty well for a dog who may be as old as 24, which is 168 in dog years!
Last week, we alerted you to a man with a plan. A bizarre, maybe totally brilliant plan to punish the bigwigs at BP for their negligence leading to the oil spill in the Gulf via a band of voracious vuvuzela players stationed outside of their headquarters in London. We managed to catch up with the mastermind behind the idea, 31-year-old Adam Quirk, who is understandably pretty busy nowadays what with his day job as a web video producer along with the Vuvuzelas for BP project. As of now, he has $4,251 pledged, and seven more hours to go. (You have until 7:27 p.m. EDT to donate.)

Here's a rather beautiful video of New York City by Andre Merilo, via NYC The Blog. Things move, people drink coffee, women wear sunglasses, day turns to night, and so on. It's entrancing, really. (It's also long, but it will make you proud to call New York your home.) Video after the jump.

President Obama's junior year digs at 142 West 109th Street, New York, are for rent, and for a mere $1,900, you could catch your sporadic Z's in what the New York Times describes breathlessly as a "one-bedroom third-floor walk-up with a windowless office and only a little corner to call a kitchen"! 
A while back we drew your attention to a rather amusing site called Hipster Yoga, where altered "hipster" yoga instructions are applied to photos of skinny-jeans-clad young people with ironic facial hair. Like so. We had the pleasure of speaking to the blogger behind the site (he also runs Hipster Kitty, which is exactly what you think it is). His name is Jon Raasch, and he considers himself a quarter hipster. Appropriately, he's from New York, and he currently lives in...Portland. 
Jon practices his third-eye gaze.
Single men and ladies, it's finally your East Coast chance to be taken apart and maybe put back together again by Patti Stanger, of you know, The Millionaire Matchmaker? That utterly heinous show that also, somehow, satisfies, perhaps because she's always telling the millionaire men to grow up and actually be decent human beings? (Disclosure: Fan here. Sorry.)
Pity the poor slob who has a full scholarship to a slightly less than tony college but instead chooses to pay in full at more "statusy" NYU -- from which he subsequently graduates with a "ticket to financial security," gets a job, and promptly loses it during the worst recession ever while still owing $275,000 to the college loan people, who have him by the balls now and forever. 
Kids, tell your parents that cartoons do save lives, and they should stop pressuring you to use the Wii Fit and just let you sit and watch your G.D. shows, okay?

We are so happy when what might have been a tragic tale ends with hugs all around and a life-affirming lesson.
