  • No toilet stopping

    No stopping this toilet, folks. If you take a number two here and can’t flush, you’d better plunge it yourself — or you can expect a steep fine from SFMTA. And don’t even ask how they’ll tow you. (Spotted on Caledonia and 15th St.)

  • Imanes mierda, ¿cómo funcionan?

    Looks like there’s some kind of Latin Juggalo festival in town, if this poster is any indication. The idea of Latin Juggalos is a little odd considering Insane Clown Posse fans are notorious for being, well… gringos. It’s good to see that they’re branching out. (Spotted all over the Mission.)

Be sure to stand in front of this and measure yourself before someone paints over…

    BpURGER? Is that a hamburger made with genuine BP-brand petroleum? (And yes, that’s the new-ish menu at Pork Store on 16th.)

  • Celeri

    Oddly enough, this misspelling is actually correct French. But something tells me that’s not what the folks at La Loma Produce were going for: this is the place that brought us the estraberi, after all.

  • New mural coming along at 17th and Capp

    For the past few weeks, the building on the corner of 17th and Capp (across from Uptown) has been getting muralized. Surprisingly it hasn’t been tagged (yet.) While it’s not finished, it’s nice to see some color at a corner that’s more known for a different type of “color,” i.e. the kind where a Royal…
