Epic Classic

This car should be in an awesome low-key indie movie.

I would’ve rushed over to determine its make and model, but I was eating. Car geeks?

UPDATE: It’s a Corvair. Thanks, FFO. Now, has a Corvair been in an awesome low-key indie movie or what?

Sports Car Drivers Park However the Hell They Want When Visiting the Mission on Saturday Night

That guy’s not even in a real space. He backed into the little triangular area that CR-V behind him is supposed to be able to use to get out. And he’s blocking the bike lane. And he’s probably partying at Blondie’s. Nice, dude.

Tasteful Tag Defaces Small Diagram of Paper Towel Dispenser Instead of Actual Paper Towel Dispenser

Subtle work, Jaut!

(You might remember Jaut from that time I went to a panel discussion featuring four real-live street artists.)

What Happens When A Party Bus from the Marina Makes a Stop at Debaser?

What happens!?

You see a lot of non-ironic preppy outfits instead of just ironic preppy outfits. Quite refreshing.

Obscenely Tall Photographer

Further research revealed that:

1) No, he was not wearing stilts.

2) Does not play professional basketball.

Nonetheless, just imagine the possible angles!  Sir, if you have a flickr account full of birds-eye views, kindly send it our way.

Obscenely Tall Dancer

This dude was so busy freaking out all the children with his fancy stilt-work, he had to leash his attack puppy to a fire hydrant to guard the Airstream (and prevent unnecessary hipster maulings).  Yes, it’s being towed by an Acura SUV with a kayak.

Let’s see, I’m just going to categorize this one as “Life in the Mission” and call it a day.

Global Warming is Real

Amiable DJ Shutdown

We witnessed most of the most pleasant DJ-police interactions we’ve ever seen in Dolores Park over the weekend.  Look at those wide smiles on the faces of everyone involved!  The whole scene lasted less than a minute, with the officer walking up and having a word followed by the DJs immediately complying.

Everyone must have been pretty techno’d out because catcalls of “Fuck the Police” were muted and sparse.  Or maybe it was just because the sun was going down (albeit epically).

Bye Bye Bombay

Flickr user mexist managed to capture the last of Bombay Ice Creamery’s refrigerators being carted out onto the street:

Bombay Ice Creamery had to shut its doors due to a couple health violations, but I suspect there are other interests involved since they had such prime real estate. We’ll miss that delicious Kulfi.

So long, Bombay.

Global Warming is Real

Two conclusions from today’s 77-degree day:

  • Climate change is real
  • Most of you don’t care about football

Saturday Sunset Epic Once Again

I happen to walk by this spot a lot, and I’ve even made a post almost exactly like this one in past, but yesterday’s sunset was just too amazing to ignore.  Couple this with our amazing summertime weather while the rest of the country is freezing over, and San Francisco once again solidifies its claim as the most jealousy-inducing location in the United States.  Take that East coast!

Go watch your Superbowl, America.  We’re gonna be outside ALL DAY.
