Mission Mission

I haven’t decided yet whether this is just for looks, or if it’s a signal, ala the bandanas in Cruising. Like, if Matthew Broderick is peeking out your right rear pocket, it means you want a kiss from Daddy?

Like it? Want it? Well, it doesn’t actually exist yet. You have to vote for it or something on Threadless. Local designer Jessica S. explains:

Hey, so I recently got a design approved by Threadless for a competition to see if it get’s printed. I live out in the Mission and the design was entirely inspired by the hipsters that inhabitat the area. I was wondering if you guys would like to post a link to the design in support of Mission designers… so I can spend the prize money on expensive Mission coffee.. boosting the local economy.

Everyone wins!

Thanks for reading and sorry for the spamish email.

So, just in case you were wondering: the gentleman decked out in festive attire made from chicken feet and tinfoil wandering last Sunday’s Noise Pop & Shop at Public Works wasn’t some derelict who wandered in from under the overpass completely crazy. That was none other than visionary artist Jason Jaworski, fresh from the scene of his latest performance. See? Art – the more you know!

I think she was so overwhelmed by all the snow bullshit that she actually thought a blizzard was going to find its way inside the Transbay Tube and into an airtight BART car, and get her a little wet.

Or maybe she just really hates when the person in the seat in front of her sneezes and doesn’t cover their mouth.

Or maybe she was practicing some kind of understated routine for the Glee tryouts.

It’s a solid look. Don’t you just want to drink beers and eat Pringles and play Gradius III with this guy? Yep.

Kiya from Self Edge once told me that since he always wears denim he even wears denim when he goes swimming. Cutoffs in the pool. And that kind of seems somewhat normal, like Tom Sawyer and friends swimming in a swimming hole with cutoffs.

Denim on the treadmill however? A very peculiar choice.

But maybe it’s good. Maybe we should all practice running in jeans for when the time comes we have to outrun somebody we just suckerpunched outside Pop’s in the middle of the night. While barefoot.

What a find!

(What a disaster! Good thing two decades later they’re partway done with a solution.)

This photo “by William Gedney” is dated “circa 1966-67″ but I’m pretty sure I saw these two at the Oh Sees show the other night. They were drinking microbrews and didn’t seem very into Sic Alps. I’m pretty sure.

According to these t-shirts they printed up, the rallying cry for the Save KUSF movement is “UNFAIR.” I mean, yeah they were treated unfairly, but it’s kind of a whiny rallying cry, no? And anyway, the world is unfair. Seems hard to protest against unfairness. How about “DICK MOVE” or something?

But seriously, KUSF needs our help this week more than ever. The Bay Bridged explains here.
