Re: “Arrested Development Chitty-Chat Club!”
I've watched all but the very last one, and I think that "bloated" is a fair descriptor. While the episodes definitely do get better after the first few, I think all of them would have been better if they had been forced to edit down to 22 minutes.

Re: “Author Takes on "Post-Feminist" Literary Scene”
Yes, because a grammatical error was the most discouraging part of this story...

Re: “Dear Bus Jerks”
Did you ask this person (politely or not) to move? If not, you are the problem.

Re: “Project Runway Wrap Up!”
Not saying this is cooler, but it was actually a ping pong social club, not pinball.

Re: “Portlandia: A Guide for Visitors Gets a Bafflingly Terrible Trailer”
This makes me uncomfortable in a way that I don't fully understand.

Re: “Fressen Artisan Bakery Opens on Northeast Sandy”
Ugh, I had forgotten how awful Black Sheep Bakery was. Just stopped in for the salami, brie, and greens on pretzel baguette, though. SO GOOD.

Re: “Gotham Tavern”
I just enjoyed a great lunch here, so I'm baffled by the negative reviews. I had a great sandwich and a generous side salad with tasty dressing for $6, while having my food served to my table instead of waiting in a line. I am a little squeamish to try this one again based on the other recent review, though. I can't believe any restaurant in this economy would insult a patron like that, but as my server today was so friendly and pleasant and the food quite good, I think I'll take my chances and try dinner sometime.
