I did not realize when I moved to Brooklyn that it is actually another dimension and that people who entered it are at risk of turning into aliens. Now, however, this fact has been made eminently clear to me.

I just went out into the back yard, and saw E.S. whitewashing the fence.

Obviously I have to move back to Manhattan as soon as possible.

    How could you miss the erotic potential of this? You obviously haven’t been watching the right porno movies.

    In this post-Trading Spaces era, I don’t believe we use the term “white washing” anymore.

    That was a faux finish.

    I’m sensing a motif forming here. Therapists from other planets and boyfriends becoming aliens. Can step-class body-snatchers be far behind?
