Mission Mission

This monster is most likely going to spend the rest of his life behind bars.

Car-ma chameleon.

I mean, college is for chumps — but check out this awesome list of participating restaurants:

More info here.

Or, I guess this could be 4:45pm what with how early it’s getting dark lately

Anyway, nice shot, Carinabot!

P.S. If you like this, Carina has some work in a show this Friday.

780 Valencia has had a rocky couple of years since The Summit opened and closed and 780 Cafe picked up the reins. It’s still a great cafe with a strong coworking community – but starting today if your order consists of a single coffee it’s going to come in a paper cup. That’s because 780 has instituted a new $5 minimum to sit – and if your order doesn’t hit it they’ll send you out the door.

You know, for all those insane stunt bonus jumps you come across as you ride through the city.

Like this one.

I loved the blood orange version over the summer. Trying pear soon.

When people who work at music venues are asked what they do for a living, they should respond “I act really shitty toward children, generally.”

Behold the results of the SF hoodie survey!

Based on the 500+ people who responded, it looks like San Franciscans (at least those who read blogs) own approximately 4 hoodies per person (though there’s a long tail of many SFians more than 10.) The Outerlands lay claim to hoodie per capita, seemingly out of thermal necessity. Using Nate Silver precision, we can extrapolate and jump to the conclusion there are over 3 million hoodies in San Francisco, making it the predominate life form in our city.

Of course, this poll was heavily weighted towards the Mission.

More over at Burrito Justice, including an interactive map.
