Shame On You, New York Times
His stuffed baby seal puts some women off? How about HIS FACE?
Seriously. Paper of record? Shame on you.
UPDATE:
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHA. Okay, NYT. That time you got me.

I don’t know who/what is more mean.
You for making fun of ugly people (although always funny) or that guy for having that baby seal.
And then there are just so many things wrong with Mr Albert Podell.
Is that a twin bed?

I like the part where you act like the NYT didn’t know what they were doing.

at first i thought, oh god, here we go, reasons why i should move back to michigan (”omg seriously, he lived in greenpoint. in a STUDIO. not even a one-bedroom.”) but then, BAM, old weirdos! who look like CGI characters! thanks NYT, i feel better!

And that first guy is a writer about dating on Match.com? what is this, reverse day? Or maybe he writes about “how to definitely not in a million years get a date.”
That second dude’s got no excuse. That’s why he went mail-order on the russian 22 year old.

When I saw the thumbnail photo on the cover of NYT.com, I wondered, “Why is Richard Nixon holding a baby seal?”

WOW, i thought that was a joke until i followed the link and realized they actually published that… also, does podell really have a santa claus turtleneck tucked into black jeans? good times….

The way the second caption is phrased, it’s implied that an undetermined number of romances were NOT sabotaged. So someone has been fucked in that bed, on those sheets, by that man. WHERE DID HE FINISH?!
Otherwise, this is so the funniest thing the NYTimes has ever done, ever.

John- your logic is wrong. The next sentence can be “But all the others were sabotaged by his bad breath and his fondness for kiddy porn.”

I refuse to believe that seal lover Strauss has EVER had a date, or has EVER been permitted to write for match.com.
As for Mr. Podell, well, if a 70 year old multi-millionaire feels that it’s appropriate for him to be living in a rent controlled one bedroom in Soho, or more importantly, a one bedroom that’s not been looked at for 30+ years, he ought to expect people to think he’s an arsehole. If you’re ugly and getting on a bit, and you can’t be bothered making your date comfortable, even if you are more than adequately equipped to do so, why the hell should you feel you deserve to get laid? If he really wants sex, why not get a really nice hotel room for the night? Fuck, he must be dumb…
Well, at least we know that if the NYT wants to be sure that the only cheeks that their writers’ tongues end up in are their own, they could hire these two.
‘Nuff said.
