Mission Mission

Do:  When staying at a nice hotel, using some of that aromatherapy shampoo and conditioner on your mustache so you’ll be smelling sweet things all day.

Don’t:  When making a delicious warm pot of tom kha gai, accidentally spilling a little fish sauce into your mustache so that no matter how much you wash it, it will continue to smell like butts until you shave it off in reluctant desperation.

A note from Sam S.:

I wanted to share these awesome shirts I made Friday for one of my favorite players angel pagan. The shirts have been a hit with baseball and metal heads alike! Go giants! I’ll be slangin these at Tempest bar in soma today for what I think will be the final game 4!

Yeah, I sure hope we don’t have to play multiple Game 4s! Kickass shirts in action:

Esteemed Mission writer @brittneyg asks an extremely important question about San Francisco:

An illuminating Twitter discussion followed — more here — and thanks to @therealWBTC, we are collecting DATA – how many hoodies do you own?

Do hoodies outnumber San Franciscans? Add your zip code and we can answer that eternal question — who has more hoodies, the Mission or Outer Sunset? And how many dogs have hoodies?

Hardly Strictly continues all weekend.

Oakland Nights… Live is presenting an election-themed episode tonight at its usual location near MacArthur BART. Co-host Julie is putting the finishing touches on her outfit.

RSVP and invite your friends!

Well, it’s going to be quite the shitshow this weekend what with Fleet Week (where you learn what it’s like to live in Afghanistan with American warplanes thundering above you while you try to live, work, and poop); Hardly Strictly (no need to worry about lines or tickets–just ride your bike to the park and lock it to a tree); America’s Cup (as if Larry Ellison hasn’t already demonstrated to everyone how big his dick is by blocking traffic and making everyone late for work downtown with Oracle World); and of course, last but not least, your own San Francisco Giants attempting to recapture the magic from two seasons ago (but hopefully not the riots).

Remember how rad that was? Everyone was so nice to each other and you could defuse an argument in a second with just a timely “Go Giants!” comment. Maybe we should try to be like that all the time?  I suppose I’ll simply settle for not trying to set any MUNI buses on fire.

Just a behind-the-scenes scene from The Bold Italic’s west coast tour. Los Angeles was a blast, Portland is next.

Babes ‘n’ drills!

Oh and Luke says he actually got it in Jenner, and that nobody believes it. Shame on you, everybody!

Here is a pendant shaped like a pickle jar:

And here’s one shaped like a terrarium!

Adorbs, right? Both are available from the Mission-based Yellow Owl Workshop.
