Narwhal Free-For-All

KayVee.INC yesterday published this parade of costumed narwhals. I’m glad I still have six months to figure out how whether being a costumed narwhal for Halloween is doable or not. Click each one for link to photo page.

Neighborhood Whippits Users Now More Environmentally Conscious

Whereas they used to just ditch their paraphernalia wherever.

Popcorn Party

Bay Area Bites on Friday published a rundown of popcorn quality at a number of Bay Area movie theaters. They had some nice stuff to say about the Roxie:

They make fresh popcorn every night, popping it in peanut oil instead of the more commonly used canola oil. They also offer real butter as a topping and charge $4.50 for a large tub, the least expensive tub of popcorn in the survey.

AND Jennifer Hudson has something to do with it (unless this 3-year-old photo is out of date). Read on.

(Thanks, Brittney!)

UPDATE: Indeed, the Roxie says, “If you haven’t been in to see who is gracing the small, medium and large portions lately, you need to rectify that.”

Bitch Who Knows?

Penelope Popsicle just found this, the first phrase we’ve seen that might be able to compete in the same league with TOLD YO ASS!

Action in the Streets

Again, tell me they were filming a movie or something and this wasn’t all some kind of violent result of Kevin Montgomery’s nerd mixer clashing with the Self Edge denim bonanza. (Kevin and Kiya are not the best of friends.)

Glee's Jane Lynch Dines Fine

In the Mission, the best we’ve been doing is the occasional Bratt brother. In SOMA, they get JANE MOTHERFUCKING LYNCH. I wonder what she had for dinner.

For more legit news like this, read South of the Slot, a wily and deadly blog about SOMA, written by the one and only wily and deadly Brock Keeling.

P.S. If you’re not watching Glee, what is wrong with you? Even former MM editor Kat Malinowska is into it! She’s very discerning, AND a former professional TV blogger.

UPDATE: She ate in the Mission too!

Biographical Info:

"I joked that living in the Mission would be the end of me. And there were nights where it felt like the case.

One night I went out with my friend Allan to the bar that no one goes to on 16th Street, where I lost half my drink and money on the dance floor. Later we skated down 16th to Evelyn Lee, where I fell off my board and landed on my head as the 22 bus sped past behind me. A sobering moment. At the bar, I sulked and nursed my wounds until Allan put on Amy Winehouse’s 'Valerie.' We danced, he dipped me, and I felt better."
