Mission Mission

…and yet, it’s no secret that the Mission’s dreamiest antiques/typewriter shop/performance space is also home to a bathroom that makes people exclaim “I would pay rent to live in there!” upon exiting, and that’s not just because they can’t afford to live anywhere else in the neighborhood anymore.

Now you can share your love for her claw-foot tub, overstuffed armchair and exquisite lighting with the world by voting for this very restroom to win the title of “America’s Best Restroom” from renowned restroom experts(?) Cintas. Check out the other nominees while you’re at it (the old Vaudeville theater in Minneapolis looks pretty sweet) but remember, civic loyalty comes first.

Caryn and Kristin are hosting quiz night for the first time tonight at Shotwell’s! They’ve been working real hard; it’s gonna be epic!

Also, Shotwell’s has food now sometimes, so there will be food.

And with Team Oracle’s victory, the streets of San Francisco go wild with honking! #notreally

It’s getting crazy on Russian Hill and Pac Heights after Team Oracle’s victory. Drivers throwing Grey Poupon. Jags with hydraulic lifts.

Dammit, another low-rider Bentley flying a Team Oracle flag got stuck on the crest of Divis and Broadway.

Not the Puck one, but the new one who lives over off Polk by the Hemlock. Jaime Jams ran into one of them the other day and had this exchange:

I just walked down to the Real World House, and I met one of the girls, Jamie, who’s on the show. And she says “Yeah, totally we’ll bring the whole gang down” to Debaser. “TV cameras and all.” Haha.

Whether or not they actually show up, tonight’s Debaser should be a blast either way.

It’s called RIPPERS, and the art is this awesome, AND this week is special:

Disc Jock Forest Juziuk brings his mutant disco/post-punk party from the front of El Rio to the back for a full blast subwoofer’d crusher! No cover & only the finest rippers available!

Special guest DJ is none other than Nihar Bhatt of Surface Tension & Warm Leatherette! Check out his completely ridic S*cloud -https://soundcloud.com/niharb

RSVP and invite yr frieends!

That’s one of the claims made by Eileen Hassi, co-founder of Ritual, in the above video.  I know that most my fellow San Franciscans take their coffee ultra-seriously, almost to the point that it can be considered something that goes as religion in this atheist town, but that’s quite a statement.  Now, I don’t understand you people, as I don’t drink the stuff myself; and personally, I think you’re all a little crazy, but I’m crazy too in other ways, so I’m not here to poo-poo in your cup (although I’m certain you’d be ecstatic if a certain weasel did).

Anyway, these CAFFEINATION guys are travelling around the nation searching for the best coffee with which to burn their tongues, and naturally their first stop is to our fair city, where one of them ends of drinking seventeen (17!!!) cups of coffee in two days from a myriad of spots.  What, don’t believe me?  Check it out yourself.

‘Tis Chumpkin season once again, right now at Shotwell’s.
