Daily Grumble

All morning I’ve been smelling what I thought was baking bread, but it turns out it’s just my neighbors burning their Passover chametz in a metal garbage can on their fire escape. Gothamist reports that the FDNY is getting buried with calls about “rubbish fires” all over Williamsburg and Borough Park. Welcome to NYC, noobs! In other Holy Week news, my super wished me a “Happy Pesach” down at the mailbox today and cheerfully noted that our building is now almost entirely Jewish “again.” And he gave me such a look. I ruin everything! Anyway, now I’m jonesing for a KFC biscuit or something.
