Torontoist is one of thirteen cities in the worldwide Gothamist network. Each Sunday, the editors of every site—from LAist to Londonist—choose their most interesting article, a list that is compiled into the network-wide feature Elsewhere In The Ist-a-Verse.

• LAist watched as the Lakers won the NBA championship, then as people “celebrated” by vandalizing, looting, smashing, and burning things in Downtown L.A.
• Gothamist had its full of the controversial, from a scandalous Calvin Klein billboard (with threesome) to the killing of Canada geese in the name of airline safety.
• Seattlest went twenty-nine days without rain, and girls went feral and old men turned on each other.
• Houstonist talked to Roger Clemens, who said he hopes to clear his name.
• Bostonist took umbrage when a local sports columnist asserted that Dominican baseball players love steroids. And they taught commuters how to use doors.
• Shanghaiist geeked out with a series of inspirational techie speakers during the city’s TedXShanghai event.
• SFist wrote a cheeky response to oil heirs Peter and Billy Getty’s new blog on SFGate, and the former brother defended himself enthusiastically.
• DCist was amused by a local ad seeking a Lil’ Wayne impersonator who doesn’t necessarily have to look anything like Lil’ Wayne.
• Londonist, once again, enjoyed gawping at hundreds of happy naked cyclists. And why not?
• Phillyist is trying to find a home for the unlikely pairing of Ceiling Cat and Basement Cat.
• Chicagoist was paid a visit by Johnny Depp and Christian Bale for the Public Enemies premiere and they brought some nasty weather with them.
