Coin pusher is really a fun game. It is quite addictive. And I guess if you don’t have tactics to get more coins, then you will really lose all your coins playing it.

I think Clooney’s Pub is really a fan place. Is there an age limit in entering that place? That coin pusher game is an additional attraction to Clooney’s Pub. Maybe one of these days I will try that place.

So, I live in the apartment immediately upstairs from Clooney’s. I can attest to the fact that this bar has not been “colonized” because it I think it is a strain of bar that is resistant to any outside culture. Everyone entering immediately becomes Clooney’s; Clooney’s can never become the new Mission. Funny enough, I used to live above Gestalt and then moved here to enjoy the peace and quiet (in 2007, this felt like almost moving to the country, I was, like, ‘I’m practically in Bernal!) but now it’s different. There is part of me that would like the regular patronage of Clooney’s to change because maybe they would SHUT THE FUCK UP but I think if there were more “hipsters” (whatever that even means anymore), they might be equally loud as the current patronage, just in a different kind of way. Less aggravated random yelling and fighting, but more hyena-like laughing and maybe like lots of different boomboxes on bikes. Anyway, I have NEVER noticed the coin-pushing machine and I think it’s new.

“Ya Basta” – Where does it say that? And why do you think there’s some imperative to post about an already very well covered yearly event on every single blog that deals with a neighborhood in which it takes place?

so far you are the only one being condescending towards Clooney’s and their patrons. fyi they have Belgian beer on tap, do you ever go there or do you just like to get your feathers ruffled for shits and giggles?

I’m not sure how you’ve managed to deduce all of the above about me, since afaik we’ve never met. Is it the fact that I’m commenting on MissionMission?

If so, have you ever heard an old saying about throwing stones in glass houses?

Dude. You REALLY need to relax. A Belgian beer and some artisanal food might do the trick.

Have you heard of Clooney’s? They have both of the above. You should check it out– it might do you some good.

Your reduction ad absurdum exemplifies my point. You’ve won. You’ve conquered, You and your mates on the G-bus have prevailed. The Mission is yours, sir.

This is one of the last places that the hipster cum douche machine hasn’t yet turned to shit, although, per Helen above, it may well be on its way.

Why do you feel the need to invade every last possible space with your interconnected irony? Like the Spanish Empire, you must acquire and destroy everything you set your eyes on. The fact that there is a place where old, unhip, working class farts start drinking at 6am and don’t want to be bothered with your ironic ping ponging means you have to invade it and MAKE IT YOURS.

What is your over-arching need to turn every square inch of this place into your personal playground?

The post is condescending to Clooneys? Then you imply that it’s core customer base are “professional drunks”. Like anyone / anywhere wants to be called a professional drunk. A bit condescending wouldn’t you say?

Also I love how this ace says that a “genuine” customer would never order a Belgian beer. They sell Stella on tap. Loser.

From now on I’m going to call two beers before going anywhere, so he can judge me and decide where I’m allowed to go.
