HIGHLIGHT OF NYC TRIP and happy monday!

Last summer, when Jamie was on a boys' trip gallivanting around New York, he sent me a pixtext highlighting a gaggle of teen girls PILED AROUND around a building in midtown. The caption read something like, "Could this be a Jonas Brothers sighting??? Oh wait, NO. Just a freaking new Abercrombie + Fitch opening. Are they serious??"

He was infuriated for days and for the past 6 months, has continued to vent about tourists traveling to metropolitan areas only to hit up a store they could find in their local suburban supermall in Minnesota or Wyoming or something. ((nothing against those states)) And as a point of disclaimer, we definitely went into an H&M clothing store....there are probably 6 locations within 4 miles of our home in SF....hey man, i needed a $3 beanie!

It's become an ongoing joke though, one we try to let in as many people as possible (because we really think we're hilarious). Literally, every time we see a group of tweens, we keep our eyes peeled for the next A+F store and/or the band-group-boys-actors-whatever-the-JB-claim-to-do. We're so incredibly "cool" that we don't know what the freaking Jonas Brothers are about. It wasn't even until this year that we figured out what a Hannah Montana was. We're hip. We're cool.

Hmmm...gaggle of people.
Can't tell if they're teens or just shorter tourists.
But around the apple store?
Is there a new laptop launching?

Are they giving away ipods??
I wanna know! I NEED to know!!

Eep!! Can't contain the excitement!!

Is this really, really for REAL??

Yesssssssssss.

And yes, Ali, your recent BBMAK post had PERFECT timing ( i still love that song).

haha i loved this post. I only just learned like a month ago that the Jonas Brothers were the new boy band of the month. I totally thought they were like a 'doo wap' group from the 1940's which is why I didn't think it was weird that I'd never heard of them. Perhaps they need some new PR. Yup, new iPod would be much cooler. (Man, are we getting old!!)

I saw the Jonas Brothers for a few minutes on TV last night. I want to say they were on 60 Minutes, but that sounds very wrong. I must be mistaken. I do not know who Hannah Montana is (though I think even my dad knows), and I have no idea who Chris Brown is.

Hilarious!! I don't understand the Jonas Brothers craze!

Sarah said...

I LOVE BBMAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So hot, such a great song!

Jonas brothers - well you know my feelings on them. They're not even cute. What is wrong with these kids that they like the Jonas Brothers and a man voiced brat like Hanna Montana (forget her real name).

Sorry kind of went on a rant there.

Does Jamie realize that the A&F is most likely due to the super hot 1/2 naked men they put in the entry to their stores?

Sarah said...

i am listening to the bbmak song from ali's post as i write this -- totally FORGOT about that song, but it only takes like two chords to be swept off to the poconos.

too funny that it actually was the JB!

and patrick has a hannah montana beanie AND gloves. weird story.

lauren and brad said...

I don't get the jonas bros either. I agree with Sarah, they AREN'T EVEN CUTE. Whatever.

BTW, please tutor me on how to add cute hearts, arrows and words to my pictures. I need help!

Ahh yes, I'm not sure if I should actually be putting this in writing, but!...ever since our nieces introduced us to that crazy trio of curly haired skinny pants wearing brothers we have been hooked. We have at least three of their songs downloaded from iTunes. I know, not exactly the kinda thing you want to admit but it makes us feel so young and hip!!
