Mission Mission

I’m at karaoke night at Jack’s, I’ve just finished singing “Excitable Boy” by Warren Zevon, a girl is starting into “Dock of the Bay.” I look up at the TVs and see a mudslide about to wipe out a bustling rural highway. The mudslide wipes out the bustling rural highway.

The man in the helicopter shooting this live NHK footage sees this and points the camera away. The man behind the bar sees this and changes the channel.

Cheers! “Norm!”

So hopefully a tsunami does not arrive.

Adding to the collection of odd stuff locked up on the street. I’m sorry, I just can’t stop showing you these things. But we’re accepting submissions! If you can really wow us you can win a weird interaction where the MM staff chain you to a pole and pretend it’s funny for a little too long. Oil up your peepers and start looking!

Once again. Cart/segway/wheelchair. Cart/rolling basket. Mug about my girlfriend. Tire. Construction thing dressed up in corduroy.

Our buddy Suz reminds us of just a couple of the many reasons we should patronize Mission: Comics and Art.

Plus, don’t miss tomorrow night’s big event!

Thanks, Suz!

This warming technique was captured by gonzo street photographer Corntard on Mission Street last night. It looks like it’s definitely working.

And look! The kooks over at Mission Mission on Tumblr have already put together a kickass mashup.

It gets much better. See for yourself:

From the comments section of our recent post about SFPD’s citizen satisfaction survey:

I actually had to fill one of these out after experiencing a nice little taste of a Shotwell and 15th mugging that busted my ankle and foot. The officers on the case were actually totally amazing–spent all night with me at SF General and came to my work several times with info on the case. And they made an arrest about two weeks later. And they were both tall and gorgeous  Have to say–pretty awesome.

Well done, SFPD!
