“Josh Duboff: A few years back, my friends and I for some reason decided to go to the Halloween parade in Chelsea. On our way back to our friend’s apartment afterwards, a beautiful man dressed in a tuxedo (a red rose in his lapel!) biked in front of us. He was holding a white sign that had “I’m sorry” written on it. We all shouted some variation of “What are you?!!” at him at the same time. “I’m… a formal apology,” he responded, and we all swooned as he biked off into the distance.”
