Initially when I heard that a beautiful building in the middle of Manhattan was being turned into a warehouse-home supply & hardware chain, I nearly fainted. I was completely against the idea. It is a travesty. A blow to the local businesses in the area. An eye-sore, an unimaginable stab to New York’s unique flavor, a blasphemous act, a fine display of ignorance.

Last night, I needed to convert toy guns into real guns through use of black plastic coated spraypaint. Immediately, I thought of nothing but the goddamned Home Depot because in Manhattan for some reason – anything you want or need closes by 7-8 pm. At least when you’re way uptown…and Home Depot was my savior and the savior of a film shoot.

Now, I don’t hate it as much.
