Dear Nora Ephron,

I'm sorry you feel bad about about your neck, really I am.  And you do write well.  But hasn't it occurred to you that there are people dealing with things far worse than having (and being able to) pay $10K a month for your 8-room, formerly rent-controlled Manhattan apartment or needing to go across town to have your hair styled?  SRSLY.

Sincerely,

"needing to go across town to have your hair styled?"

if she can afford a $10K/month apartment, she can afford to take a fucking cab across town.

I think her particular gripe is that it takes time to get across town, even in a cab. But yeah.
