autumn/winter means gourmands galore.

i'm excited to whip out my Blue Sugar and Pi

i'll be at the sf store at 8.30.

apparently there are people camping out. kind of ridiculous.

Were You From Then Buddy?

30th and noe now.

most likely the second thursday in november to be precise.

it looks decently promising.

patrick wolf's discography on shuffle.

he's a fucking god.

the knife- you take my breath away.

I hate Pi (and MJ)...but otherwise, not a bad wardrobe! Mugler Cologne, Dior Homme and Pour un Homme are some of my all-time favourites.

aah, you should see my autumn/winter collection.

I'm a sucker for gourmands, and a/w is the only time you can really wear them without the risk of phototoxicity and nasty sweat blends.

I've recently fell slave to niche scents from CdG and Christopher Brosius.

YOU sayed somethings i already said and i remember the other place i was talking about it's called cafe mason. Anyway I'm a native so you got any questions i know more than 90 percent of these people.

There were like two overlaps? One of which i didn't realize until i remembered the name of the one across from the Loris[Pinecrest]

Anyway, i think anyone who is providing recommendations is a native, so step off the horse. Perspective doesn't have to come from someone who has lived there longer.

That's gotta be impossible.. it's been closed all year.

You're talking about the ORIGINAL Original Joe's?

The one on Taylor half a block north of Market?

I was referring to the one in the loin, on [i believe] Sutter and something. I'll ask a friend today and get back.

I shit you not, i made the venture through the Loin with some of my friends just to go there, it's really good, and the staff is all Vietnamese.

Current summer lineup:

Terre d'Hermes

Pour un Homme de Caron

Marc Jacobs Men

Givenchy Pi

Mugler Cologne

Dior Homme

Prada Amber pour Homme

i work at urban outshitters, and have the misfortune of encountering Lark and Wolff on a daily basis. Overall, it's shy of mediocre. Quality is better than typical UO stuff, but still not too great.

The line is straight up boring, and price jacks are not justified and we offer the same ill fitting shirts and pants at a fraction of the price. the end.

black gold is such a joke.

really, one of the few good things in the collection doesn't even seem to be on sale[the waxed/resined pants/jeans].

You can't ask for much late night in San Francisco.. but here's my list:

Sparky's Diner (I've been going here for half my life at ungodly hours..)

Bagdad Cafe

North Beach Pizza

Japantown Denny's (food is god awful as you can imagine, but it's a fun scene)

Original Joe's (it burnt down last year, but'll reopen this fall)

agree on everything but bagdad cafe. sure it's open late night, but i found to be not all that great.

to add to the list:

La tortilla on castro and 18th[closes at 2am]

Crepes a Go Go on 11th and Folsom; best crepes EVER open until 4 ish, or when they don't get business.

King of Thai Noodle on Geary and Mason[closes at 2:30 on weekends]

Naan and Curry on O'Farrell and Mason[24hr]

Mel's Diner on 4th and Mission. Overpriced 'diner' food with squeaky vinyl. [-1am/24hrs]

Lori's Diner on Mason and Geary. same as Mel's only always 24hrs. The other two on Powell are NOT 24 hours.

That cafe across the street from Lori's who's name slips my mind. 24hrs.

I was just at Original Joe's in May? Did i miss something?

thats a great crotch, er, i mean fit.

i'd buy.

i fucking love the tamale lady!

before moving here[or right when you do], pick up Broke Ass Stuart's Guide to Living Cheaply in San Francsico.

It's basically a bible, that should never leave your side. I frequent the pages, and you, along with every other Franciscan, should.

I live on the border of Noe Valley and The Mission. Gorgeous area, 6 minutes from Castro. As for recommendations as to where to live, try the Mission, Castro, SOMA[only if you have a car, the T is a bitch], Noe, Pacific Heights, or The Marina. Do NOT live in the Tenderloin, Bayview, the Sunset or Visitacion Valley. The Loin, Bayview, and Visitacion are some of the most dangerous places to live in San Francisco. and the Sunset is just FUCKING BORING. Fog all the time, no sun, and avenues for [hella] days.

Anyway, that's just my POV. PM me if you have any other questions. I can recommend housing if you would like.

yes, no?

possibly maybe?

I am thinking of starting a full fledged proxying service in San Francisco. I have had a few clients, but only now realized i could make it work on a larger scale.

http://superfuture.com/city/city/selected.cfm?city=4

There are available stores, and there are still quite a few uncharted stores here in SF.

But really, the main reason for making this thread, is to see if there would be interest.

Vest: Vivienne Westwood

Shirt: UO

Jeans: Cheap Monday

Shoes/necklace: my line: Grae.

i usually do SF proxying, but I'm in LA for the summerrr. If you can/want to/ have no other option than to wait 2 weeks or so.

the jimi wallet of course.

i adore mine.
