Via our buddy Josh‘s RSS subscription to a Craigslist search for “Gameboy”:

Selling some of my ex bf’s gameboys – $20 (richmond / seacliff)

He couldn’t cut it(had premature “issues”) so I decided to dump him and sell some of his stuff

I’m asking $20 each or OBO
All of them are in good condition with no weird stains or problems
If you have any questions feel free to ask

P.S
I been kinda lonely lately so I’m willing to trade a gameboy or 2 for some “fun” from a guy
Yes I am a real girl and yes I am easy on the eyes

Modern romance! Just think, maybe you guys’ll hit it off and start a very special band!

The young lady on the right has the right idea. Why not set yourself apart by buying a regular Macbook instead of Macbook Pro? Don’t just be another sheep in the herd.

Jordan misplaced his bike on Wednesday. And by misplaced, I mean “misplaced” into the greasy hands of a no-good thief somewhere in the Mission. It was stolen is what I’m saying.

Anyway, he wants it back and was hoping to get the word out:

My incredible Rivendell Atlantis was stolen from me in the mission district on Wednesday. It has a distinct look, especially with the large saddlebag and matching front rack bag I had on it.

This bike has sentimental value to me as a gift from my now-departed grandmother. I have proof of ownership and know the serial number. There is a $200 reward for finding the bike if I’m able to get it back. Any advice on how I might track it down is greatly appreciated as well.

We’ve all been there, and it stinks. Give us a shout if you’ve seen it or know anything, and we’ll put you in touch with Jordan.

Honey In Yr Brain doesn’t understand why all we ever do on nice days is go to Dolores:

There are other big, huge lots of grass in SF with much better views and not as many piss-poor onesies than Dolores Park..SOME WITH PLENTY OF TREES TOO. There are beaches, hills, pools, docks, parks, reservoirs, lakes, rivers…ALL OF WHICH I HAVE FAILED TO SEE BECAUSE I don’t know ANYONE who actually goes to bed at a reasonable hour to wake the fuck up in time to make it to one of these BETTER options.

I love you Dolores Park, but the amount of tall cans I can drink in you hung over “JUSS’ CUZ IT’S NICE OUT” is running dry.

Blam! Real talk? Or what?

She then goes on to ask for volunteers to join her on her mission to try something new. Read on.

P.S. Whoa, this is the second time I gave a post this exact title. I’d totally forgotten. Here is the first.

You have to admit that you’ve always wanted to try this yourself.  MM reader Alexander K. happened upon this scene outside of Mission Creek Cafe, but noted that unfortunately the escape did not go as successfully as planned, as you can see after the jump . . .

Didn’t get your fill of hackneyed hipster humor this week? You poor thing! Well check this baby out. In this video, a couple of young vacationers want to know what this whole San Francisco “hipster” thing is about, consult the ultimate hipster guide (Lonely Planet travel books, of course), then hit up such hipster hot-spots as Blazing Saddles bicycle rentery, Ritual Coffee Roasters, Aquarius Records, and Dolores Park. This stuff writes itself!

Of course, the first things I thought when I saw this were,”uhhh, that is not a single speed bike,” and, “aren’t those shots of Mars Vintage and Rasputin in Berkeley?” I guess that makes me a you-know-what-ster.

From Missed Connections:

Paxton’s Gate, Saturday around 4PM – m4w – 34 (mission district)

We spoke briefly in two neighboring stores. You showed me your new rock. Wish I’d asked for your name.

Illicit! Respond if you’re feeling saucy I suppose, newly engaged girl (not pictured).

Wow! Top K-Pop band K.R.A.Z.Y recently chose Clarion Alley to film their latest video. Watch these heartthrobs show their synchronized stuff:

Disclaimer: may not be a real K-pop band. Might just be some bored teens that weren’t good at skateboarding or basketball.
