“Doctor Who,” “Community,” and Cult TV Fans : The New Yorker
Emily Nussbaum says: Cult shows, such as “Doctor Who” and “Community,” often have this quality: they shrug off the condescension that people have toward their “lower” genres, using their constraints to find a greater freedom. When you look at a show like that from a distance, it might seem too narrow to contain much of interest. But it’s so much larger when you’re on the inside.
Well said! :D

If you ever wanted something decadent and mouthwatering you would come to Momofuku Milk Bar, also known as “Milk”. On the corner of 13th street and 2nd ave you can get “Birthday Cake Truffles” that will slowly reduce you to utter helpless ecstasy while you rock back and forth in a fetal position wising you had more.
Or get a cereal milkshake with corn flake crunch and taste something truly and exceptionally different.
