So Washington Post asked BYT about our expectations for DC nightlife in '09, you know, now that DC is all cool for the first time ever. Read the article here
Well, we lent our expertise and our expertise got butchered, duped by a reporter we trust and love, Fritz Hahn.
Here is how BYT initially answered Fritz's questions:
What are you looking forward to for the year in nightlife?
A Jurassic Park theme barWhat's your hot pick (a bar, a drink, a DJ, a neighborhood) for 2009?A Jurassic Park theme bar
What place/event do you think captures the spirit of the city right now?
A Jurassic Park theme bar
What do you think the D.C. area needs most in 2009?
A Jurassic Park theme bar with a light up dance floor.
This is the response we got from Fritz:
"If you give me some serious answers, too, I will make sure to mention
the Jurassic Park theme bar."
As you read in the interview, Svetlana sent over her "serious answers". So where the hell is our Jurassic Park shout out FRITZ? WHERE?!

reporters are such liars.
I want to know wtf Fritz is doing with those jacked up commas in his sentence "If you give me some serious answers, too, I will make sure to mention the Jurassic Park theme bar."
Wrong as a football bat.
I, for one, think it's both pretentious and not in the recent spirit of bipartisanship and inclusion to scorn a Jurassic Park themed bar.
Ever since my grandmother took me to that movie for the first time, I've wanted this. To pee into a t-rex urinal that roars when it flushes. To get my beer/soda from a spitter draft. To eat a triceratops burger. Maybe some nachos with brontosaurus/apatosaurus cheese.
And , Mr. Fritz, you spat on my dream.
I sincerely hope you get owned by a big, steaming drop of raptor shit (one of dinosaurs closest cousins--you probably wouldn't know this because you hate dinosaurs, which, no offense, is a little weird/creepy).
Love,
TM
Wait. I was wrong (punches self).
From where we see things....a Jurassic Themed Bar is the only real solution to our economic crisis
Libby,
If there is one thing the history of evolution has taught us it's that a Jurassic Park theme bar will not be contained. It breaks free, expands to new territory, and crashes through barriers, painfully, maybe even dangerously."
p.s. Fritz, we so know it's not your "editors".
Life will find a way (to finance a Jurassic Park theme bar)
rawrrrhhrhrrwarrr
He even ignored our dinosaur related serious answers:
(b) what's your hot pick (a bar, a drink, a DJ, a neighborhood) for 2009?
The Stegosaurus (orange juice + sprite + grenadine + pineapple juice + rum)
there should be a byt party at the Dinosaur Hall. deal.
I love how "light up dance floor" got twisted and morphed into "I think we can finally see a decompartmentalization of D.C. night life." Jesus, that sounds like something *I* would say.
Fucking liberal media.
hush Jason, that was me trying to give them tit so we could get our dinosaur tat. (that came out wrong).
So, when they asked for *serious* I naturally went into "what would jason do mode".
FOILED.
I'm really having alot of fun reading this.
Next BYT party should be at the Natural History Museum under the T-Rex just to spite Fritz.
this is the greatest thing i've read in a while.
also, it's not so far-fetched...there's already a pirate bar in silver spring, a dino bar can't be far behind....let's make it happen people! hope! change! pterodactyls!
Fuck all yall LOTL4LYFE
hsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
While reading this, I actually got my hopes up that such a marvelous thing could exist... My wings have been crushed. Thanks, Washington Post.
your attempts at humor are as lame as ur DJ/dance nights. what will this site do now that hipsterdom is over?
LOL: you are so boring
so....Drunk-Ass-ic Park?
I can kind of see how skinny jeans and old t-shirts make hipsters look like tyrannosaurus rex dinosaurs ...
oh shit, I forgot to write the funny part of that joke
where's the funny part of the joke? & would that be the same Paul who got kicked out of the girls bathroom at rock & roll during jello wrestling??? because that was the funniest thing i've seen all week.
but i digress - i think the article wasn't half bad, even without the nod from fritz.
I propose we pack the midnight showing at Landmark:

Srsly, does this movie NEED a synopsis?
