Crosswalk Colorforms Part 2

A few weeks ago, I posted about these crazy lil latex(?) sticker(?) things (robots?) I've seen in crosswalks all over SF.

Between Howard & Hawthorne, SF, 8/2/10Between New Montgomery & Mission, SF, 8/9/10

Looks like the good folks at Haighteration have seen them, too.

We here at Beej Weir's Blog suggest always using the crosswalk to cross the street. And be on the lookout for little yellow robot-things.

One Hawthorne, SF, CA

I work near this new building full of high-end condos.

While I do worry about how much broken glass will fill the streets if The Big One hits and I'm at work, I can't help smiling a little when I look at her every day on my way in.

Why?

Because I know that in her basement/foundation whatever the fuck's down there exists a wall that used to be part of an older building in SF and on that wall there's this:
Hawthorne St & Howard, SF

I love bacon.

Perfect Products.

Praised be the pig.

Are Chest Beards the Mullets of the Millennium?

Is this a thing the kids are into now? Well, the kids who can grow chest hair, at least? Have we really run out of things to do?

And YES- I realize it can be considered a waste of time to BLOG about it. Don't bring me down.

As for the sentiment of the sticker: I'm not so sure.

People who engage in chest beardery seem to be making a very conscious decision to have & maintain one. And, dammit, they want you to know about it.

Meanwhile, people get mullets because that's the way they want their hair cut. There's an unconsciousness about the decision. They think it's cool. It's the way they want their hair.

But, they're not all: "Check out my MULLET!" They get their haircut and move on with their lives.

Apples & oranges.

Besides, isn't it a bit early in the millennium to decide this stuff?
