Mission Mission

Hey, look at that!  Crystal Williams, fellow Mission Drupal nerd and one time Foursquare mayor of Mission Bar can add sex symbol to her resume.

Smoochy smoochy!  I couldn’t help but follow up on Ariel’s Missile Toes post from the other day, as we keep coming across more Mission mistletoe…

Your mistletocations for the week, as reported thus far:

• 23rd and Valencia (Pictured above, in front of Beretta)
• 21st and Valencia (From Ariel, of course)
• 16th and Dolores (MrEricSir says)
• 16th and Church (Quoth MrEricSir)
• 18th and Dolores (MrEricSir, okay?)
• Above the escalator at 24th St. Bart (per Daniel)
• 20th and Valencia, by Dog Eared Books (Jeff tells us)
• 16th and Guerrero, outside of Andalu (Makeout King MrEricSir, back for more)

Swoon!  That’s practically a full make-out sesh right there.  I got smooched under one of these bad boys last night and let me tell you, it was a much cheaper way of getting lucky than pumping my bf full of cocktails.

Good luck, y’all!

Laura peeped this on Mission St between 17th and 18th.  Sounds hot.

Some 6th grade teacher was clearly grading sticker tags last week.  Although I was not too impressed with this particular piece, anything assessed to be worthy of the esteemed “four spiders” designation deserves some props.

I’ve been digging Dirty Thieves lately.  First off, it is the only place I know of in the Mission that has Stranahan’s Whiskey, which is some of the best goddamn whiskey that I’ve ever had.  Then there is the subject of their death trap of a men’s bathroom.  Not only will you do a face plant walking in there if you are rolling a few PBRs deep, but someone drew a giant vagina on the trash bag covering the urinal.  Even more troubling than the fact someone put their hands near that piss bucket?  There’s actually a glory hole in the middle of that vagina.

Mission Mission advisory to women: you probably don’t want to sleep with any guys that spend more than 60 seconds in that bathroom and look particularly elated leaving it.

Fuck ya

Zing!

This is just kinda sad: In a major act of retroactive cover-your-ass, Kevin Montgomery — aftergoing all bro-douchey on local coverage of the detention of Amuse Bouche vendor Murat Celebi-Ariner last week (an important story in the, uh, Mission) — of Mission Mission shows new concern for the plight of the immigrant.

…

Follows a long story from a reader, presumably, about a kid scooped up and thrown into ICE detention. And you wanted us to know this because?

Let me get this straight, SF Weekly: some guy on the internet said something you don’t like so, in response, you launch a personal attack and lambast the general importance of Latino immigrants’ struggles, presumably, because they didn’t jump on some tired “street food” bandwagon?  Really?  Aren’t you supposed to be above that?  You are print journalists.  Homeless people use you for warmth.  I’m some guy behind a monitor who spends too much time at Bender’s.  I’m only used for warmth once every three years, average.

I know Mission Mission does not always tout the Weekly’s party-line and, yeah, we had a different take on this one, but we don’t get why that provoked two posts worth of vitriol from one of the Weekly’s editors.  I don’t think using the situation to promote a general discussion around the Missions’ immigration problems is so absurd.
