Reader Alexis sends us a note about an article in Concierge, a magazine I’ve never heard of before, titled “Ten Things Not to Do in San Francisco.”  The gist of the article is this: if you want to gawk at the youth and their “counter-culture,” you should avoid the Haight and go straight the Mission, home of “the real San Francisco-now experience.”

“Today weekend hipsters with day jobs in biotech have moved in, but the vibe remains decidedly experimental.”

Are “weekend hipsters” the new “weekend warriors?”  I think I just retched in the back of my mouth.
