SAOM is much amused by this nonsensical spectacle and orgy of po-mo scenesterism and released teen angst; especially this diametrical revision of the term Pillow Fighter.

Costumery: Pillow Fighter
The underground arts organization NewMindSpaceNYC organizes an annual mass public pillow fight, wherein people show up at the designated place and time with pillows, other weaponized bedding, and sometimes costumes, and have at each other.

Urskin & The Polar Boss
Polar Bears is the name for a group that meets socially to go ritualistically "swimming" during the coldest time of the year--the Polar Bear Plunge. They believe the periodic icy bath to be invigorating, therapeutic, even spiritual. The Coney Island Polar Bear Club is a New York City regional chapter of this world wide club, who meet at the Coney Island boardwalk to take the plunge in the Atlantic every Sunday from November to April.
Sister Spanky, had joined this group and become a regular, and had been imploring her friends to join her for several months. After many failed resolutions and attempts--it is harder than one would imagine to make it to Coney Island by 1 PM on a Sunday in winter--one day in early Feburary, 2010 Urskin managed to make it.
It turned out this particular plunge was being taped for an episode of The Cake Boss, a reality-based TV show about a bakery and its stereotypically New York Italian staff.

Pit Lick - Primer
There is a girl in Italy. Presumably she is some sort of student, with a incomplete grasp of English but rather fluent in Internetinese. She seems to have discovered and become something of a fan of the Nudity Dares of her own volition, and has even gone so far as to issue one.
She had started her own internet-based endeavor in deviance: Leccarsi L'ascella (Armpit Lickers.) This meme/fad consists of people licking, attempting to, or appearing to lick an armpit; the act photographed, and the photo posted to the Internet. So as a sort of cross-cultural international meme-propagation quid pro quo, some of us in the USA have adopted this cause.
