The lovely thing about Times writer Katherine Bindley’s report is how hard she struggles with not writing something along the lines of DICKBAGS, MANY OF YOU, especially when she takes to quoting the invitation: “‘We are here to announce the balance is restoring itself to the ecosystem of the New York dating community,’ the party organizers said on their cheeky Web site.” Somewhere, buried deep within the confines of the Sunday Styles editorial bullpen, there has to be a style guide filled with euphemisms like “cheeky” their writers are forced to use in place of designations like “goddamn ridiculous.” It’s probably a great read.
