Say allo to my li’el friend!

Tony Montana, meet your match.

Two female undergrads at the Fashion Institute of Technology were arrested last night on charges of dealing cocaine out of their dorms. Coincidentally, the entire FIT class of ’09 has reported a “mild” to “moderate” recovery of their collective post-nasal drips.

The motive behind the drug ring remains unclear, police say. Although, it might have something to do with the money one makes while selling drugs. We’re not sure though. And let’s be honest, these girls weren’t aboard the express train to employmentville, were they.

Most interesting in this case though is the general attitude of Christine Scafa, 22, and Mickenzie Dippenworth, 21, as they were arrested. Please refer to the photo below:

As the two of them were led from the Seventh Precinct last night, photographers caught them giggling and Scarfa yelled, “We’re not Plaxico Burress!” (We couldn’t make this up if we tried). Although getting arrested for alleged possession and distribution of cocaine is entirely hilarious and facing the rest of your life in prison is inducive of belly-laugh-causing scenarios, I would NOT be laughing if, during my own drug bust, I was snapped wearing a sweatsuit.

Apparently though, a large number of FIT students have been very, very naughty. In their persistent quest to be part of the “cool” crowd (that’s the definition of fashion school, is it not?), they’ve been blowing lines the whole time! And to think, I’ve been getting by on caffeine and taurine – how lame am I!

“A couple of my friends go there and they say that you can just walk up to anyone in any building and they’ll know where to get blow. The joys of fashion school!” says an anonymous source. If I were at FIT would I be the girl eating her lunch on her lap in the bathroom with her lone Red Bull while everyone else sat laughing in the cafeteria sprinkling blow on their Cheerios?

The two struggling fashionistas, it turns out, weren’t even struggling at all. “They come from very good backgrounds as far as we can tell,” says Lt. Brian Murphy of the NYPD’s Vice Club Initiative. Was this a hobby? A new pastime bandwagon that we’ll see hoards of recession-affected young adults jumping on? Should I start selling drugs? If so, what kind? These are all questions that I’m sure will be answered in due time. Until then, stay classy New York.
