Motorcycle with a crossbow mounted on the handlebars

I can’t tell if this is a badass or a steam punk! What is the answer?

Get hyped on Thomas McNaughton’s Salumeria with TWO pop-ups this week

I don’t know about you, but we’re pretty confident the Flour + Water chef can put together some bangin’ Italian sandwiches, and now’s your time to find out. The first takes place Wednesday 11:30-2:30 at McNaughton’s Flour + Water (pictured.) If you have a job (or don’t go east of South Van Ness,) there is a second pop-up planned at Clooney’s on 26th and Valencia on Friday evening.

The following sandwich is on the menu: prosciutto cotto, mortadella, pepperoncinis, whole grain mustard, olive tapenade, pickled carrot, wagon wheel cheese, foccacia- $10. Sweet.

Future-themed dodgeball party tonight

I guess World Dodgeball Society SF does this thing every week! Here’s the deal on this week’s:

Open Gym Power Power Hour Plus! Yes, we are gonna shoot for the early start time again. Co-ed, No-Sting dodgeball played to the best/worst jams from 8:30-10! Great way to sweat out all those leftover toxins from your weekend or just an excuse to wear short shorts.

Thanks to all of you who unearthed your fav dead presidents last week, but this week it’s all about the future. Please interpret liberally. We will be hitting a new watering holes this Monday (post).

Spread the word! $5 to play.

Or free, if you ask for the American Tripps discount, apparently :)

RSVP and invite your friends!

This is what a $400 T-shirt looks like

At least, that was the price we overheard quoted to an interested (and subsequently shocked) shopper at Afterlife over the weekend.

Are you an enlightened cyclist?

It’s fantastic that there’s so many people taking to the streets these days to ride their bikes to work, play, or wherever they need to go.  Of course, this also means that not everyone has developed the proper etiquette necessary for transversing the city without enraging other pedestrians and motorists (not to mention their fellow cyclists).  Luckily, there’s a chance some of us have observed these proceedings and are now on a path towards cyclist enlightenment–a haughty-sounding but nonetheless noble pursuit.  In case you’re still not sure which side you’re on, check out this video to see if you fall under any of the alluded stereotypes that might prevent you from becoming an enlightened cyclist.
