I can't be a newbie forever. In fact, the
LA Times says a Los Angeles veteran is anyone here "at least a year." For me, that's less than two months away. So how about:
- Atwater Villager
- Atwater Village Idiot
- It Takes An Atwater Village
- Three Glasses of Atwater a Day
- Smoke on the Atwater
- Where It's Atwater
Me, I'm leaning toward the first one, and letting Adult Video News have its acronym back. - AVN
ReplyDeleteI like SMOKE ON THE ATWATER! Considering the LA River is full of all kinds of interesting things, from random refuse to weird hazy smelly mist. (Kind of smoke.)
ReplyDeleteI think criteria for being an Angeleno should simply be "Can you handle a celebrity sighting without totally gawking" or "Did you then narc on the celebrity to Defamer.com"? Then yes, you are an Angeleno.
You should stay AV Newbie forever. Who wants to ditch THAT kinda name-recognition?

Don't lose your identity - everything is new when you look with "new" eyes.
ReplyDeleteI must concur. You are the Newbie. You shall always be the Newbie. Perhaps, not as a citizen, but as a brand. Own it.
ReplyDeleteRob - I like Atwater Village Voice! But I wonder if I would feel compelled to make political commentary. (More often.) - AVN
ReplyDeleteSherru - Looks like I'm busted as an Angeleno. I don't gawk, but I do have tips@defamer.com always handy. - AVN
