Amore for Amir

5 Oct

Which men’s hair grooming product do you think Amir Farokhi uses?
170-9326Is that the sheen of Brylcreem or does he perhaps use a hair tonic? Whatever it is, it’s helped him achieve perfect Kennedy hair, something this country needs right now more than ever.

3603822926_1ce492b179We’d like to hastily present this installment BOY CRAZY WITH PECANNE LOG©: Amir Farokhi, candidate for Atlanta City Council’s Post 2 At-Large. Since Amir’s campaign is so flush with cash, he is able to buy his own mansion in Atkins Park as well as keep some Pete Souza-esque photographer on payroll. If you join his fan club (give his campaign money), you get a little handwritten note from him. He has the penmanship of a gifted 7th grader, but I’ll still treasure this correspondence always, as well as his tasteful letterhead.

First off: Amir can dress! Nice pattern combo! Like a fresh spring day. And way to roll up your shirtsleeves and be “one of the people.”

Yes, he’s confident enough to have naked torso in the background of his policy chats. Eyes off the plaster nipples, people – this election is about the ISSUES.-1

City council candidates: they’re just like us! They wait anxiously for the train car with the least number of passengers dragging oddly-shapped black plastic bags, and try to ignore the pregnant woman wretching into the platform trash can three yards away. 3595284160_1f18c5b9e9

I agree with all his campaign slogans, except for the Schlotzsky’s motto.

Was anyone at Miss Darrow’s exclusive interview on public art with him yesterday at Eyedrum? Did anyone ask him why adults aren’t allowed to play on the Noguchi Playscapes? That’s one of my greatest concerns. Those things are AWESOME.

Does anyone think it’s creepy that not one but TWO Post 2 At-Large candidates attended Duke law school?

The other hottest city council candidate is beekeeping enthusiast/master of flattering lighting Alex Wan.

Says one famous muckracker, “did you watch his video on his website? felt like someone was asking me out for a drink.” Ultimately, though, winning the District 6 race doesn’t come down to looks, seductive videos, or even how gay you are, but how you can capture the NIMBY hearts, minds, and (especially) fears of all the bungalow owners who occupy those neighborhoods.
