The first version of steeez.com was started in the Fall of 2007. From The Vaults is a new feature consisting of old steeez.com content that was kinda decent.

I love when it’s Parent’s Day in Williamsburg, Brooklyn! Yay!

Easy way to deal:

1. Brunch as early as possible - The scrappy batch come out to eat post-noon, so to avoid Mom asking questions about why all the girls look like your Aunt Donna in the late seventies and why all the boys look like Portuguese Water Dogs, dine early.

2. Teach ‘em about subway poles - They’re just as dirty as the steering wheel of the rental car Dad drove down the BQE in. Make them fucking hold them. Nothing’s worse then some top-heavy, tucked-in Mom and Dad stumbling all over the L train as it pulls outta the Bedford Stop towards the Museum Mile.

3. You won’t get robbed, Mom - So go ahead and loosen your grip on your Coach bag. And Dad, your cellphones and pagers might get stolen so go ahead and untuck your shirt and hide your tech-holster-pants-holder.

4. I know, I know - My beard makes me look 10 years older and I should shave it… Whatever…

5. Hide the edgy wall-hangings - A gold frame around a transgendered, Sherlock Holmes-themed, gang-bang, B&W inkjet print ain’t classy. Slip a picture of your grandmother behind the glass for the duration of your parents’ visit. It won’t knock your street credit - We pwomise…

Oh yeah - Always walk one-sidewalk square ahead and make sure your girlfriend doesn’t wear that fake, faded Moody Blues t-shirt (or if she does - make sure she crams the night before.) Oh… and avoid all night life - Rent a movie instead.
