Jane Brody, like George Costanza, knows where to find the best public toilets in NYC. Here's a sentence I never thought I'd read in the New York Times: "My own approach [to the dearth of public restrooms], whether traveling by subway, car or on foot, is to be sure to use the toilet just before leaving home, office, restaurant, museum or theater." It's good she includes her high-culture consumption in what would otherwise be a sentence about practical toilet-going habits that I'd imagine are shared by the rest of the toilet-having world population.
I'm starting to think "Jane Brody" is in fact a writer from The Onion, and has been all this time...
Brody and Winerip should get together and hang out. They are equally condescending and would enjoy eachother's company in the way that only people who love to condescend about everybody else and their dog love to do.
ReplyDeleteMother Brody taught little Jane very well. About being discreet, not so much. -- JM
ReplyDeleteHe's smart enough to find his own toilets.
