The official press release explains:

The Billboard Liberation Front (BLF) is honored to announce a new marketing partnership with Philip Morris (PM) that finally brings together the rugged sense of American independence with your most important choice as a consumer: your death. The message of “My Life. My Death. My Choice.” informs and empowers the consumer to choose, as their god given right, how they want to die. Philip Morris brings this message to the consumer to remind them that some rights are inalienable in life as they are in death.

Almost as good as the AT&T one.

(Thanks, Rick!)

This is not the first time, certainly, but what a shot. Look at the doom in their eyes.

End times are near, people.

If only everybody in town were as cute as these two.

Somebody totally bussed a pigeon along with their unfinished tortilla chips, and then the pigeon’s mate came over and was like, “What are you doing in there? Let’s get out of here.” The other one shrugged and was all, “I been bussed.”

And then that dude at the table goes, “Look at that cool guy taking pictures of pigeons.”

Yikes. There are enough parking worries in this city without getting any pesky gremlins involved.

Watch your backs!

The Tenderloin Geographic Society hips us all to one of the highlights of SF Pride:

The It’s-It cart. Sometimes it’s closer to UN Plaza, sometimes closer to the Bill Graham.  They usually sell t-shirts.

So, I’m out of town this weekend. Somebody want to pick me up a shirt? Adult small. I’ll owe you some It’s-Its.

Check it out. This band is called 0th, which is pronounced “Zeroth.” And as if that (or the above band photo) weren’t reason enough to go see them tonight at 8:30 at Southern Exposure, tonight’s performance has an extra special ingredient. Part of the band will be here in San Francisco, and part of the band will be in New York, and they will perform together via Skype or something!! How fucking rad is that!?

AND, I think one member of the band is MNDR, that girl in that rad Mark Ronson video with Q-Tip.

This rapture seems to have claimed the earthly body of some kind of skateboarding construction worker.

Finding a new place to live in this city can be tough, you guys. Like super tough, right? Yesterday, Jen Gann broke it down. Like a poet or something:

Get a new voice, get a new email, get super charged Craigslist eyes. Stalk the columns. Separate ads from each other. Know the rental companies, the short cuts in applications, the fastest way to beat another’s application with your own. Offer to pay and pay now. Carry your checkbook like it’s a change purse and use it just as often.

Our cranky old commenter Cranky Old Mission Guy might be on to something:

I have an idea.

How about all us pedestrians pick one day per month to meet, link arms, and walk from one place to another — completely blocking the streets AND the sidewalks — while randomly ignoring traffic laws, common sense, and any notion of courtesy to other San Francisco residents (we’ll blame it on “the fringe element”)? I’m sure the bicycle people will be happy to show their solidarity by not trying to cross our lines!

Sure, he’s being facetious, but really — why not have a pedestrian Critical Mass once a month?
