Kittenz with Lazers / Kittenzilla Vandalized

December 24, 2010 – 12:02 PM

Some assholes buffed out the Kittenzilla mural on Divisadero, not more than one month later. No LOLZ. I recently saw the “real mural” when we ate a Nopa, and it was cool. Whoever buffed it out, obviously spent some time and even bought different spray colors. Anyway, the original article is here… The mural was [...]

Naked Man with Owl

December 19, 2010 – 12:30 PM

Nice pic on FFFound. There’s also a funny article on SFWeekly about the popularity of owls. The owl thing just won’t go away. What is it about them that has every woman between the ages of 25 and 45 so insane? We see owl tattoos, more of them than you’d think. Owls symbolize wisdom, owls [...]

Olympus Goes Correct

December 16, 2010 – 12:52 AM

Super simple commercial gone right. Love the vibe, honesty and authentic tone of this, not that I would buy this camera personally. Advertising has generally lost any sense of authenticity in the last five years, and this is a prime example of a brand trying to be sensitive to their audience and market without fake [...]

December 14, 2010 – 3:59 PM

Zombie Woman SF

December 13, 2010 – 8:19 PM

Saw this woman crossing the street the other day and was shocked. Had to scratch my head a few times wondering if it was a zombie, but seeing her up close it looks like she has cake frosting all over her face. A cake frosting fetish? Shot by someone named Travis – he has some [...]

An epic song, Cerrone, Supernature. And on the topic of science, how cool is this recent discovery of a fruit bat in Papua New Guinea called a “Yoda Bat.” He looks like he is smiling. Check out the article.
