I Heart Street Art today looks at a big PE on somebody’s garage door.

Now that Xanath has fallen, will the red tide of veganism put soy queso on every pizza at Pi Bar? (via vegansaurus!)

New in the running for Comment of the Year is this gem by one William Applebaum, on a post about Potrero del Sol Park:

you should keep the mission hipsters in dolores park. it would suck for them to ruin our skate park. they litter alot and play shitty music and the hipster girlfolk are nothing to look at really.

if we will stay out of your hipster heaven and then will you please stay the fuck out of our skate park?

otherwise i feel i might need to start hurting hipsters in many different physical ways and finish letting the air out of their tires on their bikes and selling them for cheap to the homeless that live under the 101 highway.

thank you.

No, thank you, William.

Link. Thanks, Cortney!

And it’s a nice one too! Hilly, green, wooded, with views of Sutro Tower and the freeway and skaters skating in the skatepark, a playground full of lots of interesting gadgets, and a bandstand from which Thee Oh Sees can totally rock my world.

Dolores has a cute little competitor.

(Also, I realize this is not necessarily news, but everyone I talked to was like, “Have you been here before? I haven’t, this is great!” So I’m sure it’s news to plenty.)

That’s right! Thai/Vietnamese Brunch! At Doc’s Clock for god’s sake! Mission Mission pal Linda L. has the rundown:

Heads up!
There is a new pop up eatery on Sunday’s at Doc’s Clock, a little enterprise called Three Papayas.

Thai / Vietnamese brunch. Cheap as all hell, only $8 an entree.
The menu changes every week but the Three Papayas Salad is always featured. All home made, all fresh ingredients!

Nice place to duck out of the sun, have a morning cocktail and eat.

Took the liberty of writing down last Sunday’s menu. You can friend them on Facebook for more info.

-Bunny Chao: South African Indian Curry
-Three Papaya Salad
-Pork Ramen
-Vietnamese Crepe (pork and Shrimp or vegetarian)

A couple of weeks ago they feature pork dumplings and Chicken Pho

Noon to 4pm

I can’t wait!

The first Yelp review adds that the enterprise is the brainchild of “underground superstar chef” Tawei, formerly of guerilla-ish operations at Yamo, Bender’s and Thee Parkside.

Update: Pork Ramen photo by tackyy.

Check it out, another Tumblr blog featuring cell phone pictures of weird shit on the streets of San Francisco. This one’s somewhat unimaginative name is SF Shots, and last week (Shark Week, appropriately enough) they came across this: a god damn shark draped across the top of a trash bin at 16th and Valencia.

…asks Brolores Park.  (link)
