I almost fell off my bar stool when I read “The Loft That Mediabistro Built.” A piece about, Mediabistro (which includes AgencySpy) founder, Laurel “The Boa Lady” Touby’s SoHo loft in yesterday’s New York Times... Apparently, when she sold her operation, she walked with $23 million, and decided to blow a few million of that on a home “Everyone would be jealous of.” Sorry Laurel, it’s a fucking shithouse. A perfect example of someone coming in to a pile of loot, then blowing it on uber expensive modern arty tchotchkes no one in their right fucking mind would give house room to. Check out the $30,000 couch that looks like it came from a Greyhound Bus depot. Ouch. Why am I not surprised that the interior was designed by the same people responsible for “The Museum of Sex.” Anyone wanna buy AdScam for a mere $23 million? As it's Friday, you know bloody well what I’d spend it on!
Damn right!
