Gawker
Not a lot of news on the Aleksey Vayner front this morning, except to note that the douchebag had YouTube take down his infamous video; the American heroes at IvyGate have re-upped it and it can be found here. Also, an observation: We've been getting a considerable amount of mail from shady organizations who are now creating fake Vayner profiles on their websites in hopes of a link. How sad is that? You go from promising young sociopath to spam-baiting joke in a week's time. There's something almost poetic about it. Also, we (and, apparently everyone else in the world) received a copy of Aleksey's birthday party e-mail: You'll find it after the jump.

Subject: Party Invitation for You / Press Release
Dear friends,
I would like to invite you to my party in NYC on August 19th, starting
at 8:30pm, at www.Bar12.com ? A nice bar/lounge located in Midtown
Manhattan. Enjoy the company of great people, live DJ,
all-you-can-eat-appetizers, large plasma tvs, dance, and great specials
on all booze!
Besides celebrating my birthday, I just published a book, Women?s
Silent Tears and would love to use these as reasons to get together and
party with my friends! The book, available at www.LuLu.com/alekseyvayner
- is a gendered study on the Holocaust, through the eyes of survivors.
All proceeds from its sales go to fund Youth Empowerment Strategies
(www.EmpowerAChild.org), a non-profit organization for immigrant
children that my great team and I launched this summer as well (Another
great reason to party?!) Attached you'll find Publisher?s Press
Release, should you find the topic or the cause of interest to someone
you know.
So I really hope you can come, and have a great time! Celebrate, dance,
eat plenty, and of course for some of us ? just get wasted!!!
(Under-age invitees need not worry, you?re set)
1. Please reply to this email if you WILL or MIGHT come = having
semi-accurate headcount will significantly ease my life.
2. If you want/need a place to stay in the city, let me know and I?ll
take care of that on first-come, first-serve basis.
3. Under 21? = reply to this email so that your name is on a list =
getting in will not be a problem at all, guaranteed.
4. Party has no cover. You are welcome to cheap to help cover cost.
I hope to see you soon, and I hope that you are having a fantastic
summer!!!
Much Love,
Aleksey Vayner

First inductee in the douchebag hall of fame. Wow.
No open bar? That's some bullshit.
Anything and everything about this pompous little fool does indeed make me cry silent tears.
Really classy, reminding "Under-age invitees" not once but TWICE that they're more than welcome -
This is starting to make me miss your Meatpacking District coverage.
"You are welcome to cheap to help cover cost."
Up until now, I was completely unaware that "cheap" was a verb. Thank you, Aleksy.
ok maybe he is describing the woman's experience as unique, but without her name on the front cover it just seems like he is calling his own book unique IN THE TITLE. which is obviously what he is doing and i guess i shouldnt at all be surprised.
if anything makes me want to celebrate, dance, eat plenty and just get wasted!!! it's a Holocaust survivor story.
Guys like this are why people hate America.
Does everyone at least get a goodie bag to take home with lots of cheese in it?
having fun with cut + paste:

Aleksey Vayner, a first-generation immigrant from Tashkent, Uzbekistan...
JAGSHEMASH! My sister was voted best prostitute in the same town as Aleksey but he make sexy with chickens and goats all the time. Why he no like her?! - Borat, Yale '89 (Kazakhstan Campus)
Do you think the DJ played "Pretty Fly for a White Guy" at the party? It just seems to fit.
What is this fu**er's last name for real? Someone said Garber, as in Victor Garber? Gawker where is that listed, no links you provide let us in on his true identity. If such a think exists....
Yeah, Scott, "Pretty Fly for a White Guy" probably made the cut, but only for a momentary change of pace from all the putrid dance music cheeseballs like this seem to go in for.
"Enjoy the company of great people, live DJ,
all-you-can-eat-appetizers, large plasma tvs, dance, and great specials on all booze!"
Oh well, at least he provided free munchies. A few years ago, I received 2 invitations in one year to birthday parties which were thrown by the birthday boy and girl - and which helpfully informed invitees about the price of dinner.
Then again, the appetizers at his bash were probably the cheapest crap anyway.
So was Cindy Adams invited?
And what is the administrative overhead of his self-promoting charity? Does it have 501(c)(3) status? Is proper documentation on file with the state of NY and the feds? All the website offers is "Coming Soon"...
I was at this party, we had an indoor "Ferrari Fight and Crash/Dance Comp"
'twas epic.
Seems the party was a "fund raiser" for Meister Douchebag and his sister's (who apparently shops exclusively at Sluts-R-Us) favorite charity... Themselves. There wasen't even token immegrant orphan - apparently, his connection to Brad & Angie isn't as close as he claims. It was definitely a Cheez-Wiz and Ripple kinda' event.
Already over.
That chick in the middle clearly goes to FIT and is just impressed with herself that she's out with a 'yale boy', even one who self-publishes at LuLu.
Why haven't the folks at Smirnoff tapped this twit for their Preppy-Playa(h) promotion yet?...He seems a natural.
Sheesh, I wish I'd know back in the day you can apparently major in Delusional Buttmunching at Yale...Definitely would've gone there instead.
Uzbekistan is waaaaay too ethnic for the prepsters.
And his name was reported as Garber in the Yale article on him in PreFrosh. Gawker had it yesterday, in that horrible post you thought was a blank page until you scrolled down to the bottom and poof, there it was.
Like I said yesterday, the best way to preserve this guy's douchebaggery so that it may stalk him through the cybersphere forever (and to protect IvyGate from being sued) is to post the video as widely as possible. He cannot sue everyone, and if he is proven not to pursue some people, he has no legal justification for pursuing one.
I would bet my life savings (£2.50, I'm an academic, so all my income goes on sweet, sweet booze) this guy has a martial arts dance routine worked out for 'Kung-fu fighting' he breaks out at every party, wedding, or wake he's ever been to.
check out the description of the book on his lulu page. The boy could use some grammar lessons.
...and yet no one commented on the fact that when you click on his link, it's the promo of his literary bombshell: Women's Silent Tears.
"(D*uchebag) successfully draws on survivors' very personal reflections to present a unique gendered perspective on the Holocaust in Eastern Europe through deeply moving stories of what women endured at the hands of the Nazis."
WOAH, let's party.
oh, and review are by:
Members of the Jewish National Fund
(read = my uncle larry and aunt frieda)
and
Writer on the Holocaust Review
(what the d*uche is "Holocaust Review", and if it exists, can't everyone "write" for it? or if literally taken, it's a flyer that his nephew vladamir colored on...)
