"This was New York City’s second installment of The Underground Rebel Bingo Club"

Oh god.

Highlights:
"The 500-odd contestants eyed their bingo cards, drank heavily, and scrawled cat whiskers, flowers and the occasional phallus on one another using the washable markers distributed at the door."

"But many who cried “Bingo!” misunderstood the simple rules (“Two horizontal lines!” Mr. Gordon said several times with exasperation)"

"“Shoreditch kids” (the country’s “hipster” equivalent)"
