Romance & Sex
WILL FUCK 4 BIG MACTHIS IS WHY I LOVE THE SF WEEKLY. Up until last week, I had no idea that the sit-lie law was going to ruin dating and vegan eating in the Haight:
An author named Spencer Walker has written a new guidebook with a section apparently devoted to the San Francisco dating landscape. Titled "Hippie Harlots," the section claims to be a primer on the Haight Ashbury dating scene -- a scene that just may die if visitors aren't allowed to sit or lie down in public anymore.
According to Cook to Bang, the aforementioned primer on home-cooked meals prepared to entice potential dates, Hippie Harlots are found in San Francisco, at ultimate frisbee games, and at Burning Man. And they respond well to fried tofu, writes the author, who admits to "occasionally trolling Haight Ashbury for bohemian booty."
...
Should [Police Chief George Gascon's sit-lie law] pass, the resulting hostility and infringement of civil liberties may make the neighborhood a glum place for hippie hookups. And we might see a decline in Walker's style of cuisine.
So for the sake of everything that's organic and tasty, can't our top cop just leave the Haight be? (LINK)
Spenc sounds like a terrific dude. Cooks to get laid, trolls the homeless for sex. A real casanova. Also, why the hell is sit/lie being morphed into a foodie issue?

Our pal Al noticed this in some random Berkeley dive.
I'm glad I don't spend any significant time in Berkeley.
From their description: "When we close our Cobra eyes and imagine the perfect summer day, this is what we see. A midwest love letter, a daydream of kiddie pools, and mexican beer. Captured in a single take."
¡Que bromantica!
I'm worried about today's youth. Always digging the bad boys. I blame MTV.
I don't know about you guys, but I might like this more than the Simpsons vs. Ghostbusters mural that went up earlier this month.

If you answered 52 seconds, you're just a hair faster than this industry dirtbag:
This amazing, 720p spectacle is brought to us by Blowing It In San Francisco, which after a mere 2 posts has established itself as a fine San Francisco blog. I mean, this is one epic find: it's some dude pissing outside of BENDER'S BAR AND GRILL while cars wiz past and pedestrians stroll by seemingly unaware. During the motherfucking day.
Who said the Mission can't keep it classy?

She set ablaze a burning trashcan fire in my heart. And now I fear that even with these lotted Jordans on my feet and the riot police to my back, I may never catch up with her again...

Saw this wreckage from a grizzly 3-car pile up on San Jose and Dolores the other day. The cops looked far too busy so I didn't ask any questions, but I can't help but wonder why the hell there is a pink bra hanging out the window and why there is puke all over the passenger side door. Hope everyone made it out okay!
Just a friendly message from your local street artist outside of Groger's Western Store on Valencia.
