Tha Tin Man lean.

It's Christmas, yo. I just finished the most epic meal ever: Filet Mignon roast, Brussels sprouts, chanterelle mushrooms, and masher's. A delicious bottle of wine later, and my Pops and I are watching The Wizard of Oz. Upon watching the Tin Man scene, I noticed a funny similarity. When the Tin Man does his dance solo he does this, well, he leans:


I've only seen this one other time:


Happy Holidays :)

Whip it real good.

Considering she's nine, this seems fitting to be on Sesame Street.

The Dread.

Dreadlocks. Let me state that I do NOT hate dreads. One of my good friends used to have dreadlocks and I would twist them for her. She was beautiful, and so was her hair. But if you asked her if she liked her hair, she probably would have scoffed and flipped you off - that shit is rhetorical. However, I must admit a pet peeve of mine: White people dreads.

I am under the impression that people who have dreadlocks need them to better manage their hair, and most who have dreads have really curly hair and happen to be ethnic. White people do not fit into this equation, and this is where my problem comes in. Since I grew up in San Francisco I must say, White People dreadlocks seem politically IN-correct and culturally insensitive. They also allude to poor hygiene and taste.

Agree with me, or don't - gotta speak my mind. Ahhhh, Zen.

Kardashian Kristmas.

Yeesh. The present day xmas card (bottom image) could easily be the advertisement for the next season of Keeping up with the Kardashians. Amazing.

1990's


2000's.

The new MIA

RyeRye kinda sounds like a mishmash of MIA, SantoGold, and Lil Mama.
Combine that with a music video that crams together the most bootyshakin, tworkin, pop-n-lockin, double-dutchin' that i've seen since TLC and Salt-n-pepa 'Push It'.

MIA sounds bored and uninspired, but pass the torch girl, pass it. Plus it seems fitting to listen to a song called 'Sunshine' when its pouring outside.

Hipster Babies.

Yes, it is real. Thanks to Angelina Jolie giving her kid a mohawk, we now have to worry about what our BABIES be dressin' like. Yeesh. As if I am not stressing enough about what shoes I'm going to wear, now I have to make sure that my child (when I have one) be lookin as fly as me, if that is even possible.

I don't know if I can go so far as to say this is an epidemic, but it is definitely worth considering. Now that there is a baby store on Valencia, and hipsters are now having kids, The Mission is like the new Noe Valley all of a sudden. So say good-bye to drunken nights at The Attic, and get ready for coffee and strollers rolling over your toes. All I know, is that my friends are beginning to have hipsterbabies, and they are damn cute, but beware....


Case in point:::




Too cool for school. Literally. I home-school my child, because, all the other kids are wearing BabyGap, snorrring.


Ray-bans of course.



My baby drinks Pabst, not because all the other kids are doing it, but because it just tastes better. One tall boy for the babyboy!



My baby would totally wear this, and lets be real, I would totally wear this.



Hipsters are always 'over it'.

"Who the fuck is Justin Beiber?"

Mr. West, the 2010 Blues Brother.


“I’m never at my worst because even at my lowest, it’s a learning experience. It’s something that I’ll bounce ideas off of, so I can take negatives and flip them into positives at all time.”

Multi-faceted: Runaway.

Runaway, Yeah Yeah Yeahs.



Runaway, Del Shannon.

Tears are fallin, and I feel a pain. Wishin' you were here by me, to end this misery...


Runaway, Mr. West.

I'm so gifted at finding what I don't like the most, so I think it's time for us to have toast..

The many facades of being Paranoid.

Paranoid, Black Sabbath.

All day long I think of things but nothing seems to satisfy...


Paranoid, Mr. West.

You worry about the wrong thangs, wrong thangs...

La ropa!

The Sartorialist has been hittin' it hard lately. Here are some shots of significance.


The Golden Poppy...


I love the balance between rugged and delicate. Her shoes scream 'princess,' while her hair yells 'bitch.'


Only a skinny bitch can pull off tan sweatpants...



This is gonna be my no-brainer: Fur coat and bitch-heals. yes.

Raised Sidewalks

They're all the rage now. It might seem minor, but this traffic calming tool is quite an advance, displacing the comfort of cars for the safety of pedestrians. One was just put into the parking lot at Stonestown shopping mall, the only one thus far.
