Power outage fun

But did y’all keep Smithsfits going with a little a cappella? “I ain’t no god damn son of a bi-i-i-itch!!” sang the entire bar, in unison.

If you’re gonna try for savesies, at least use a healthy cone

Iconic 17 Reasons sign rises above the Mission once again, kinda

Okay, so not really. But it’s good to see some of our neighbors at least trying to keep its memory alive. Nevertheless, I think I like the previous crew’s message a little better.

Cranky Old Mission Guy took the photo and would like some clarification on the scribbles in the lower right.

Pee-wee cake

Wow! Looks almost as yummy as the real thing. And even yummier than that dumb reunion.

UPDATE: Our buddy Raun was on the scene:

KKKatie hits the White House

Looks like she’s definitely back in action in a big way. I’d say this tops yesterday’s cop car.

The Smiths and the Misfits, together at last

The official description says everything you need to know:

Josh Yule and Jay Howell spin all Smiths, Misfits related tunes.

It’s this Saturday at the Knockout. RSVP and invite your friends here. And do dress the part if you’re feeling so inclined:

Muni pass wall art

Says an enthusiastic editor at Design Sponge:

This is such a clever, chic display of old bus passes that I’m tempted to traipse over to San Francisco to amass my own collection — bravo to SF Muni for making such awesome-looking tickets and for using great color combos!

– and then discontinuing them forever! Read on for the whole story on how this display was made and why and, of course, the “before” shot.

[Thanks, Kristina!]

Freaky rogues gallery

Local cult cartoonist David Enos is the man responsible for this ghastly wanted poster. So blame him when these creeps start showing up in your nightmares.

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."
