Thank you for setting back women and New Yorkers alike

Your banker boyfriend lost his job? No need to worry about his emotional well-being, just get together with your girlfriends and form a support group now that he doesn't have the funds to support your every flighty whims~!

And then there are some lovely gems from the group's blog:
This whole messy ordeal has advanced my Botox start date by at least two years. Like every other DABA girl, the economy was wreaking havoc on my relationship and youthful good looks. Phone calls went unanswered, Hamptons invitations un-extended, plans canceled (including, but not limited to, expensive opening night tickets to the ballet, which were scalped instead of being graciously offered to me and a galpal), and so forth and so on. Until – the horror of all horrors – my FBF lost his job, which I guess technically downgrades him to just my BF.

Moreover, the picture recalls a time when being a DABA Girl really meant something. In BR times a DABA Girl was celebrated for her style, her class, her panache. Now, after the recession (‘AR”), the label “high maintenance” is tritely ascribed to DABA Girls. Like artists in a communist regime, we’ve fallen from grace.

Does that count as a Godwin?

Here's to hoping this is one elaborate and well-written satire blog...
