Gnomi addresses the moron fashion photographer yesterday who did everything from blocking people from getting on and off the train at Washington Square to smoking on the platform and signs it:

That chick who insisted on being able to get to the waiting area despite your desires to get that perfect shot.

This little kid just stood in Washington Square with his hand out today. It was amazing how many runners gave him a hand slap.

Brookline Police charge a local man with gau'ing berserk at the Golden Temple on Beacon Street early Friday morning:

Upon arrival [officers] observed the kitchen to be in disarray with dozens of broken plates, prepared food, and other items scattered on the floor. Mr. Homan was placed under arrest and brought to the police station. Fallon ambulance determined that they were going to transport him to Beth Israel Hospital. While the subject was being escorted to a room he slapped a nurse across the face and became very belligerent. During a struggle to restrain the subject, he also managed to hit the officers.

Also in Brookline, police report that when they responded to 229 St. Paul St., where some new residents moving in were reporting the theft of their stuff, they noticed a resident of the building carrying a stereo into his apartment. They asked to take a look and when he said yes, they discovered the missing items. Busted.
