GOTHAMIST, GRUMBLER, GET A TWO-HANDED GRIP ON NYD

Last week New York Dick got into publicity bed with two online hotties, the ever awesome Gothamist and the insightful and enlightening Grumbler.

The Grumbler took an in depth look at NYD, going for the details in an interview with author Galen Smith. Trends in penis defacement, why so few examples of female genital graffiti, snow penises; all great questions but the wrap-up "have you ever drawn your own dick graffiti?" brought up a little known defacement phenomena. Smith does not do any defacements himself but often is at a loss to understand why some posters that seem to be naturals for pecker defacements don't get them, or stay un-defaced longer than one would expect. Smith admits that he sometimes wants to scrawl on the posters "WHY AREN'T YOU DRAWING DICKS ON THIS!", but doesn't.

In their article "The Best of the Best: Dick Defacements," Gothamist recognized the penis defacements featured in NYD as yet another example of New York's dicky Gothamness, "We are, if nothing else, very mature, New York City." But in an apparent nod to the occasional un-defaced poster situation that the Grumbler touched upon, Gothamist muses, "how has no one boner-bombed the New York Lottery's Minute to Win It guy yet?" Although we at NYD do not have any photos of schlong additions to this spokesman/poster there must be some delicious examples out there, I mean, we want to draw nasty stuff on this poster every time we see it, which is a lot. Wake up NYC and do what has to be done!
