Freaks and Tech Geeks, a San Francisco Story

Recommended Posts

JBD and I (and anyone else who lives here join in) have decided to make a thread about the craziest, most liberal, most expensive and hilliest city in the world (the car chase scene in Bullitt!).  We will periodically make posts about the city of Shrimp Boy, $3500 one bedroom apartments, the Warriors, Asperger's Syndrome meetups, a zombie downtown, Chip Kelly, virtual reality, super high-end weed and $14 cocktails.

 

Joey has promised to make videos.

Ahhhh, feel right at home.

 

Too bad out old pal Baclo left. He's a former Bay Area resident and I'd love to hear his take on things.

 

Couple pics from last weekend

I took that 1st picture after visiting Bi-rite creamery one of the best ice spots in the city and maker of the best ice cakes on earth. I paid my bill of something like $80 for a cake a pint of ice and a few cookies. Laughed about that and walked outside and over heard tech people pitching apps, guys with beards talking philosophy while riding their fixies, planning their trips down the street to Delphina for pizza, and about about 17 different languages form the 100 or so people in line to get ice cream.

 

It's almost like watching a reality show walking around that area. (Formerly el barrio de mission , currently, hipsterville)

Just to get everyone comfortable. Saw this street sign this week.

 

A Tale of Two Types of Losers

 

Gambling Landers wears a green baseball jersey, is bankrupt, rides a Huffy and coolers easy winners.

 

Tech Landers makes $300,000 a year coding, can't make eye contact, rides a track bike with brakes and just wins.

 

As a side note, the pedestrian townhouses in the background are $3 million plus.
