Jessica Wachtel New York, NY

I often wonder what I'd do if I lost my inspiration. Then I get on the bus and see a woman rip a hair out of her head and start flossing her teeth. It's good to know that as long as human nature stays so perfectly impeccable I will always have my muse. Jessica made her great escape from Boca Raton to New York City in 2006 only to find out that people are not only as belligerent, but worse as a result of the close quarters and sheer number of people calling the city home/ vacation/ insert here. After years of spectating, she has decided it's time to detail her adventures in the world of the "Are You Kidding Me" open forum style for the entertainment (possibly enlightenment?) of others. Her life's goal is to figure out why people think it's a good idea to stop at the top of a crowded staircase to dig for a map in their fanny pack during rush hour with 200 angry New Yorkers on their heels.
