Nice shot of the iZombie! I was at a bar last night and the only ones who weren't texting, Twittering, facebooking, etc. were myself and the bartender. Why do people even leave their apartments to sit and stare at an iPieceofcrap?
Yeah, that pic encapsulates it all. There's something about the set of her mouth that equals entitlement, not to mention the whole aesthetic.
Wombacher, I'm def. stealing iZombie, though I wouldn't be surprised if you or others coined it before. I got the same sinking feeling recently when I heard some random ad about a sand-proof carrying case so people can take their iCrap safely to the beach.
To paraphrase Public Enemy, iCrap = the new "Channel Zero."
I wonder if the izombie knows she's walking past Liv Tyler's town house? Maybe she's Liv's assistant.
I think I would just feel like an asshole if I was walking around holding an ipad. The thing is just too big to be inconspicuous. It's like walking around reading a book or newspaper.
Anapoli is a lovely place, & seems a lot more bustling than poor, beautiful Hinsch's was towards the end. Very welcoming too. Let's hope they have many more years.
Filmatix nailed it. I do believe the iZombie is the social entity,quasi style arbiter, and hyper self promoting L.Sykes. Welcome to the "fabulous" Far West Village.
