Can't Get No Satisfaction, Mayor Bloomberg Style

The headline is a pun in itself, but I'm sure there are plenty others to come (ooh, matron!).
City officials pull the plug on vibrator giveaway, leaving thousands dissatisfied

This has to be quote of the summer.
“There’s a lot more important things the city should be worried about than a free-vibrator giveaway,” complained Park Slope bar owner Melody Henry, 42. “Bloomberg doesn’t want anyone to have fun. You can’t have a giant soda. You can’t have a vibrator.”
Any fule kno that only Mayor Bloomberg is allowed to shaft citizens in New York!

“The production company affiliated with the event is currently in
discussions with the Mayor’s Office to hold a promotional event with
proper permits at a later date.”


Ooh yes, you must have the permits. Where do you think you are... America?

Sam, you nailed it. The 'permit' angle is the US version of H&S. If they don't like something, it's always about licensing. See further reading below.
