Where do I go in San Francisco? Based on 768 Foursquare checkins.

I’ve written about Where Do You Go before, but I thought it was interesting to follow up with things in my new neighborhood.

Hah! Andrew Martin jokes about today’s “silly bikes.”
However, the latest trend is for the minimalist courier bike, which supplements the disadvantages of the road bike (no mudguards, bags, lights) with the bonus disadvantage of having only one brake and no gears at all. It’s more difficult to ride one of these up a moderate incline than it is a mountain bike, yet that’s the point: they show the rider is super-fit, which is why they particularly appeal to men worried about turning 30, who are not super-fit but want female passers-by to think they are.
There is a group of people who have me mixed up for someone else and keep sending me email. I’ve replied and emailed them on numerous occasions that I am the incorrect person, yet I still receive weird and even awkward emails.

Err… what? Here’s another gem. Names blocked out.

Yikes! I feel bad for the poor little dude, whoever he is. That said: Reply to all -> “Hi, I think you have the wrong person.”
A few weeks later, another email.

Ahhh!

Do they have these in adult sizes?!
Edit: They do! (Thanks to mactavish for the tip)
Though I do still kind of prefer these Monster Hoodies (which apparently are no longer in stock!):

I love this Threadless shirt, called “The Communist Party“, created by Tom Burns. Though I’m a sucker for puns. It reminds me of the Bad Religion song “Atomic Garden” which has the following verse:
And I’m glad I’m not Gorbachev
’cause I’d wiggle all night
Like jelly in a pot
At leats he’s got a garden with a fertile plot
And a party that will never stop

I love this!
“I think it’s fantastic,” Nash said after Tuesday’s practice. “I think the law is very misguided. I think it’s, unfortunately, to the detriment of our society and our civil liberties. I think it’s very important for us to stand up for things we believe in. As a team and as an organization, we have a lot of love and support for all of our fans. The league is very multicultural. We have players from all over the world, and our Latino community here is very strong and important to us.”
I’d really love to see the San Francisco Giants wear their Los Gigantes jerseys whenever they play in Arizona.
