Mission Mission

Says our pal Mike:

After three weeks in Europe, that was pretty much the one souvenir I brought home.

Now that is a great shirt.  But do you remember the first time?

Previously:

• New Benders Shirt Best Shirt Ever
• Sexpigeon Muni Shirts
• Titty tee
• Is my Fuck Columbus shirt offensive?

The whole thing, gone in 60 seconds! (Okay, apparently it’s in the shop for cleaning or refurbishment and it’s due back probably in a couple weeks.)

Note to motorists: they forgot to screw the parking meters back on the parking meter posts, so you can park here for free for basically forever.

At Thrift Town.

SFist this morning published a list of reasons you might be a bandwagon 49ers fan. Topping the list? You live in the Mission:

Once a bastion for Latino families, introverts, and homosexuals, San Francisco’s Mission District is now home to long lines of beards in black Giants caps waiting for ice cream, bread, groceries, Chinese food, and evenhaircuts at a fucking barbershop. Is it because The Mission has the best the city has to offer? Hell no. You can find the greatest of anything all over this unparalleled city of ours, not just on Valencia and Mission streets. It is because nowhere more in San Francisco do people love to be a part of something, to be a part of organized fun than in The Mission. If the shocking rise in baseball fans among the PBR set during the 2010 Giants World Series is any indication, we could see double that with football fans provided the Niners win Sunday’s NFC Championship.

Fair. Read on for lots more astute analysis.

Photojojo explains its new product:

Ahhh, the Mission District. The Burrito Capital of San Francisco. It’s a little known fact that Photojojo HQ sits smack dab in the middle of said capital and have we got a burrito for you.

Feast your eyes on the Photorito Lens Wrap!

Only $20. Read on.

I’m always tempted to go for the $2 Fat Tire deal at Rosamunde, but then I remember it’s in a can. No such catch tomorrow, when Racer and Radeburger drop to $1 in celebration of two years of Rosamunde in the Mission. Happy birthday, dudes. (Starts at 5 P.M.)

Congrats to Lost Weekend on funding their community screening room! Seems like a smart move to provide an experience you can’t get on Netflix, and a good place to meet babes. Follow the link for a quick video explaining the project, in case you missed it.
