Sure, Craigslist can tell us where to find that missed connection, a holiday gig, an iPhone or a strictly platonic encounter, but can it tell us what New Yorkers are thankful for this year? The answer lies in Craigslist's Rants and Raves section, where the lively banter revolves around everything from burning a hoo ha to images of hippos. Out of gratitude, I've concocted a festive pie chart of over 100 recent Rants and Raves. Full breakdown and exerpts after the jump.

Click to enlarge.
Some highlights:
On hipsters:
What a thought. Both female and male hipsters rubbing their cheese-encrusted genitalia together, the female hipster generally disappointed with the size of the male hipster appendage and the male hipster generally pissed off that yet again, a female hipster turned out to be not so nice under all the layers of deceptively complex hipster clothing. Pasty, cheese-encrusted etc.
...Imagine two filthy hobos gyrating in mud in the buff, you're on the right track. What's that smell.....smells like boiled onions??? Yep that's right boiled onions! Every hipster knows what I'm talking about....their filthy little secrets!
On Indians:
...I now knew she did it bareback, so to speak. Anyhow, to the nasty ass Indian who just started shit on this board, CARE TO COMMENT ? Don't EVEN say anything about whores or whatever, just tell us how badly you treat YOUR women, huh ?!!!!!! You POS no deodorant wearing scum under peoples shoes. P.S. IMMIGRATION is WATCHING.........
On she males:
I really like the passable she-males I have been out to the movies with one named Valerie. She is 5'11 latina she-male and NO ONE could tell the difference she has big 38DD boobs nice hourglass figure and an ass bigger than most women I know.. She has a tattoo on her breast with the name of her ex todd. Sometimes she takes the 7 train watch for her you may see her ;)
On being a corporate executive:
I make $800,000 per year, which is well below average for most CEO's. For a forty hour week, that comes to about $384 per hour. You working class drips are just jealous they we were smart enough to take control of your nation's wealth and resources. Whether we inherited most of our money doesn't matter. You should have gone to Yale like I did instead of wasting your days working in that restaurant.
On what to do if you toast your hoo ha with Nair:
This sounds bizarre, but really works: after aloe vera to get rid of the worse stinging, save your own URINE (!) and dabb it onto the little muffin in the evening. You'll see, by the next morning it will start healing. You should dabb some urine on every day for 4-5 days.
Wont smell, just make sure you let it dry before you put undies/clothes on.
No creme will heal skin problems as fast as urine!
Happy Thanksgiving.

Our Intern Mary has applied her sharp analytical mind and excellent Excel skill to Inside Inside, the wretched memoir by Inside the Actor's Studio host James Lipton. We've already examined the man's choice in epigraphs (pretentious), his favorite holiday (ridiculous) and his taste in women (whorish). But now the hard data is in.
This data is culled only from the first chapter but one can fairly extrapolate that similar proportions will be found throughout the 464 pages of the book. In one paragraph on page 8, he mentions: Ibsen, Chekhov, Shakespeare, Moliere, Aeschylus, Goldoni, Sheridan, Wilde and Maeterlinck.

There are many important factors to take into account when deciding which trash gossip blog best suits your needs. Like: how many times per day would you like to hear about Amy Winehouse? Rosie and the Gays? "Icky icky poo" Bob Barker? How do you feel about the word "shiteous?" Intern Mary has made one of her signature charts, tallying 50 consecutive posts on Friday from both Harvey Levin's AOL/Telepictures (Warner Brothers)-owned gossip site and Mario Armando Lavandeira Jr.'s own place on the web. Which queen of new media should you prefer? It's like, are you hungry for Funyuns or those Andy Capp fries?

Boy, y'all sure had some feelings about whether or not it's ever acceptable for a man and a lady on a date to split the tab! As you recall, my position was "Yes, of course, what century are we living in?" Your positions ranged from "I thinks the man should pay, but only if he is getting some" to "Men should pamper me like the princess I am!" to "I am gay and happier about it because of this post" to "Is this Jezebel?" We recruited Intern Mary to help us discern the misogynist forest from the self-hating trees.
The people have spoken!

Pitchfork, the music site "often compared to Rolling Stone in its prime," can, they say, make or break an album. But rarely do we get to see the men behind the curtain. Men, you say? Oh yes, we say. Our Intern Sheila checked genders on 10 business days of Pitchfork's bylined reviews from each of the last two months, as well as from March, 2007 and from September, 2006. In each of those periods, reviews by men named Mark appeared at least twice as frequently than any reviews by women. The good news: Pitchfork appears to have doubled its contributions by women in the last year—their lady-numbers have jumped from 4% to 8% of all bylines! Wowza!
September 2007
50 reviews sampled
4 by women - 8%
7 by dudes named Mark - 14%
August 2007
50 reviews sampled
3 by women - 6%
6 by dudes named Mark - 12%
March 2007
50 reviews sampled
2 by women - 4%
10 by dudes named Mark - 20%
September 2006
50 reviews total
2 by women - 4%
9 by dudes named Mark - 18%
I trust we've all learned something here?

Each morning we wake up, open the front door, grab the newspaper, look at the forecast for the day's high temperature, and dress based on that forecast. (Occasionally we also shower.) And every day, around noon, we find ourselves complaining that we're too hot because the paper was completely wrong. So we asked Intern Mary to track the weekday results of the city's three major papers and the New York Sun against the actual high temperatures over a two-week period. She also looked at the online predictions, for those of you who get your news that way. Her findings may surprise you!

Online
The Daily News was the worst offender here, deviating an average 6.78 degrees from the day's high. The Post and the Times, both of which use AccuWeather for their online predictions, were the closest, with only a two degree deviation. Overall, the online temperature matched the actual high a pathetic 10.25 percent of the time, giving a ninety percent chance that forecasts are off by at least one degree. Special mention goes to the Sun, which was 23 degrees off on Aug 21st and 21 degrees off on Aug 22nd.
Average Variation By Paper
1) Daily News: 6.78 degrees
2) Sun: 6.53 degrees
3) Times and Post 2 degrees

Print
The Post takes the title here, being off an average of almost four degrees from the day's high. The Times is the most accurate, with an average 1.54 degree difference between forecast and reality. Overall, the print temperature matched the actual high only 17.3 percent of the time. So print temperatures are more accurate than online temperatures, but are still wrong more than 80 percent of the time.
Average Variation By Paper
1) Post: 3.77 degrees
2) Daily News: 2.62 degrees
3) Sun: 2.61 degrees
4) Times: 1.54 degrees
What's the lesson here? Watch T.V. NY1's "Weather On The Ones" is usually right, right? But if you can't stand to do that, maybe you actually have to buy a newspaper!
