Commented on Former Rivals Agree: Newspaper Owner's Drive To Buy Up SF Publications Is A Good Thing
I'm a huge fan of the new-look Examiner, and I think the Guardian has added a couple pages of short news stories since they were bought, so I'm all for expansion of the Vogt empire in theory. But I don't...
Commented on Google Adds Bizarre Requirement For SFPD's Bike Theft Workshop Attendees
Looks like they've deleted the Google+ question. Nice work on publicizing this. But what's up with the SFPD standing up for the public's right to attend while the Bike Coalition seemed to be okay with leaving it up to Google?...
Commented on Weekend Watch: Prometheus is better than Aliens 3 (What isn't?), Native Americans Can't Jump, and a THIRD (?!) Madagascar
I never considered myself an Alien mega-fan, but back in Junior High a friend and I used to pass the time on the bus reciting the first half hour of Aliens dialogue. So in that spirit, I do have to...
Commented on SFPD Partnering With DEA For Prescription Drug Takeback Event Saturday
Wait a sec, I thought you could now dispose of drugs at police stations anytime now, along with at 12 pharmacies? http://sfenvironment.org/article/toxic-products-recycling/disposal-for-residents-safer-practices/safe-medicine-disposal Also lost in all of the news about drug disposal is that this new program is funded by...
Commented on Seismologist Describes Recent Bay Area Earthquakes As A "Cluster"
I think we need a new term for earthquakes under 4.0. Maybe "quaklet" or "earthquaklet"?...
Commented on SF's New $10.24 Minimum Wage Takes Mayor Ed Lee By Surprise
It's an interesting conversation, but first of all: WTH??? How is Ed Lee so oblivious about the City's minimum wage law??? The Office of Labor Standards Enforcement (who manages minimum wage stuff) reports to the City Administrator--Ed's old job! That's...
Commented on Muni Bus Cleared After Fight Ends In Pepper Spraying (Video)
Can we start a public service announcement campaign to get people to film smartphone videos in landscape mode instead of portrait? These tall, skinny videos make me claustrophobic....
Commented on Business Leader Worries That Visitors To SF Might Not "Appreciate" Getting Ticketed When They Break Traffic Laws
Can we quit the pussyfooting around and just ban private cars on Market Street once and for all? That would get rid of all of these confusing half measures. I'm not a traffic engineer, but allow me to play one...
Commented on As Ed Lee Officially Joins Mayor's Race, Attacks On His Character Begin
It seems a little premature to say Daly will heckle Ed Lee. There are dignified and respectful ways to express anger. What's the equivalent of a chicken suit for a liar? Maybe Chris should light a pair of pants on...
Commented on SF Giants' Brian Wilson, Lou Seal, Cody Ross Join Keenen Cahill In Awesome Video
I friggin' love this team....
Commented on John Avalos for Mayor? Yes: Supe To Announce Bid Today
I've heard John Avalos referred to as the Latino George Clooney....
Favorited Late Author And Activist John Ross Makes Unusual Request For His Remains on News
Commented on Late Author And Activist John Ross Makes Unusual Request For His Remains
God bless John Ross, still setting the bar high from the great beyond. Equally awesome was his New Orleans-style funeral procession from the church to Cafe La Boheme with a brass band leading the way. Someone could make a hell...
Commented on Dave Chappelle: If You're Googling This, Please Don't Be Mad
After I saw him at the new parish last year, I came away thinking that Dave had turned into some kind of lone ranger. Like he won the golden ticket for a life of fame and leisure, but he recoiled...
Commented on Have Questions On How Chris Daly's Going To Run His Bar? We Have Answers.
That's not a very nice thing for such a reallyniceguy to say. Did Chris meet with the cops at Bucks last Friday morning? Because on my morning commute last Friday, there were three empty cop cars blocking the new separated...
Commented on "Suggested" Map For Critical Mass Published, Ocean Beach Police Say They're Ready For Riders
It was a beautiful ride. Hands down the best ride of the dozen or so that I've done over the years. It didn't follow the exact suggested route--we skipped South Beach, which was a good idea because Critical Mass +...
Commented on I Interviewed For The SFMTA Board Of Directors And All I Got Was This Story
Am I the only one who noticed the poignancy of a "Waiting for Godot" comment on a post about MTA/Muni board dysfunction? (I know, I know . . . a week late and two dollars short. Exact change only.)...
Commented on Updated! Debaser's Attack On Local Blogger: Thinskinned, Or Justifiable Retaliation?
Raise your hand if you went back to count paragraphs after reading Brock's comment. On the one hand, this whole thing is a fascinating case study in local Internet etiquette, but on the other hand, "goes all fatwa on Kevin's...
Commented on What Muni Bus Lines Would You Like To See Fare Inspectors On?
The 19 Polk! From Fisherman's Wharf to Hunter's Point by way of Polk Street, SOMA, and the Potrero. I've had some crazy experiences on a couple different legs of it. I've always thought it would be a fun field trip...
Commented on There's an Election Next Week?: The Appeal's Oversimplified Guide to the State Propositions
Weird, I tried to post this comment yesterday afternoon, but apparently no luck . . . . These propositions are so friggin shady. 1A has nothing to do with this year's budget. The Legislative Analyst says, "Although Proposition 1A was...

I'm not sure if you've noticed, but: 1) Mission Mission has, in no way shape or form, merit or power. 2) You cannot blame the degradation of Mission Mission solely on Kevin. 3) Allan is a homeless person by choice. He is not Jesus and cannot save something he threw in the flames, so everyone stop asking....
Haze Valet commented on Updated! Debaser's Attack On Local Blogger: Thinskinned, Or Justifiable Retaliation?
Oh no he didn't!!!? One thing is for sure. Debaser is going to be sick next month... if you like mosh pits... (the crowd should be great) AND There might be a party promoter vs. blogger throw-down outside the Knockout. I can't wait to do something else that night... something of the "epic" sort that one weirdo spoke of. This is like Nirvana and Pearl Jam arguing over who is more "grungier"... except now it is "hipsterer"? I guess I will head to the Castro that night for a cat fight instead... talk about FLAMING....
C. commented on Updated! Debaser's Attack On Local Blogger: Thinskinned, Or Justifiable Retaliation?
Thanks for this, Katie. Points well-taken. Re (1), I guess by "merit and power", I just meant that people seem to like Mission Mission, and to trust or to believe and even to credit it to some degree, and generally to support it; it felt like a friend. Perhaps that's a naive view or sense to have of an internet medium such as a blog, but I think that sense tends to happen when human beings are regularly drawn to something. I think lots of that liking was based on a certain positivity of its posts, a sense of appreciation...
Greg Dewar commented on Updated! Debaser's Attack On Local Blogger: Thinskinned, Or Justifiable Retaliation?
I'm a bit unclear as to where in the US Constitution it says that every patron of every business on any night must enjoy that business 100000%, and is not to speak ill of it no matter what. If someone could find that in the Bill of Rights or something, that'd be helpful. Any business , no matter how great, is going to have someone come in and not like it or make snarky comments. And, thanks to the wonders of science, now, instead of just saying so at the office cooler, can do so online and then the Entire...
DOJ commented on Dave Chappelle: If You're Googling This, Please Don't Be Mad
A pensive, insightful, well-written glimpse of one of our culture's tragic heroes. It says as much about the writer -- and ourselves as an audience -- as it does about Chappelle. I look forward to seeing more from this writer....
