Honky Talk
Gotham blogger Streeter Seidell posted the White Folks’ Guide to the NYC Subway System last month, and the scathing responses are still flooding in.
"There’s this thing called Columbia U. Maybe you’ve heard of it," writes the mononymous Cracker, "And I’m a nice Catholic boy from Long Island in Washington Heights. You know, northern Manhattan. Get out more!"
Apparently, the satirical aim of some Seidell’s map eluded many of his readers. The map calls bullshit on our sanctimonious civic pride—particularly for its alleged "diversity."

It’s like Duke Ellington said: “Take the A Train. But, uh, get off before Harlem.”
