You Might Find Yourself, who is evidently broke and tactful as fuck because he’s shoving Google ads all up in his RSS feed, alters us to this killer deal over at Walmart. I feel like this is our generation’s Green Album.

Bike Snob NYC: "cunning stoners solve lock shortage problem but leave their wheels free for the taking"

Bike Snob NYC alerts us to a ridiculous how-to video shot in Dolores Park. Of course, anyone who has ever actually ridden a bike in the bay knows that bike thieves will just bust your rear triangle to parts your bike out. NEXT.

That sait, someone who is cool points out the obvious.

What a rad twitter handle. I think I’m going to change mine to kevinisabloggerthatnoonereadsandismildlyinteresting. Dang, it’s too long.

File this one under “if I read ‘the mainstream media,’ I would already know this:”

After being called out for the paleness of my skin and trying to internally figure out how work off that 1,000 calories of shitty American beer I drink a day, I’ve been riding my bike up in Marin a lot more lately. Well, just in time for Spring, the big, bad government is shutting down Hawk Hill. Tears.

Be the Coolest Kid in the Park

For seventy hundred and fifty PBRs at Pops (read: $1500), you could have the slickest cross bike in Dolores Park, getting “pretentious hipster hos” to drop dem draws. This offer only applies to sized tall cool kids, as the bike is a large.
