Judges might look at me funny in court, but fuck 'em.

Is there a special reason you re-posted this? Did the original get lost?

My SO loathes Telegraph Avenue, not because it's squalid or grungy, but because she thinks all of its denizens are suburban kids from Orinda there to act out.

I lost faith in the Telegraph scene when Pink Man went to L.A. to get "discovered." Fuckin' sellout.

Leagl, you and MR have been doing a marvelous job and all, and I'm just hoping that the board is 2K compliant. I guess we'll see in a moment . . . .

How can your SO not like Telegraph Avenue, with the smell of fresh human feces, the urgent requests from street folk for "money for drugs?" and the ever so fashionable deadwear for sale up and down the sidewalk?

Sheesh, she must've gone to Stanford. :smack:

My sister (remember her, she's the bohemian chick whose clothes went up in a ball of fire on Highway One last September?) went to Stanford, rebelled, and has been dating a guy who worked at Ameoba on Telegraph. She's been distraught all week because he recently dumped her, but I secretly think that she's really upset about the cut off of really really cheap used CDs.

According to the Onion, he's already dating a new chick.

Girl From Coffee Shop Seen At Bar With Guy From Record Store
OLYMPIA, WA—Marissa Quirk, 21, that girl from the coffee shop, was spotted Monday at McCoy's Tavern with Greg Clarke, 23, the good-looking hipster guy from the record store. "I go into Crazee Espresso and Rainy Day Records a lot, so when I saw them at McCoy's together, I was like, 'It figures they know each other,'" said Dan Duckett, 22, who has long harbored a crush on Quirk. "It reminded me of that time I saw the guy from the vintage-clothing store with the cute girl who always announces the bands in the student union."

It's not even any of that that bugs her -- it's the suburbanites from Orinda. So clearly she had quite enough of the suburbanities at Stanford . . . .:wink:

I take it she really, really hates Fourth Street then. RestoHard must give her the heebie jeebies.

Me, I can't tolerate Jamba Juice well, but the Menlo Park farmer's market makes me crazy...everyone in their rumpled college sweatshirts calling home on the cell phone to build consensus about organic vegetable offerings. Menlo Park yuppies on Sunday, Telegraph poseurs on Saturday. WTF?

Its a matter of principle. We can't have the proles running about acting as if they're landed gentry. Sometimes, they just need to be reminded that everyone knows they're transparant.

Nice to see you on the flip side snidely condescending,

Edited by Leagleaze to remove potentially identifying information. Sometimes it is not clear what might be outable, so I will ask people to please be cautious. If you have any questions please feel free to PM me. Thank you.

Looks like IT has blocked this board's IP, and I can't get to it from work. Fuck. Any ideas?

I can get on fine from home, using the same PC. Looks like it's definitely an IT at work issue...

Do I need friends more like exDebtSlave and less like the ones I have?

That depends. If you're upper crust, you have the luxury of collecting friends like DS and LessinSF. If you're a climber, maybe not.

Because clearly the Baseball Hall of Fame is within its rights as a private institution to choose its speakers. Even more so, when such ungrateful guests have absolutely nothing to do with baseball.

They do, however, have more to do with baseball than baseball has to do with politics.

One that may work is that there is a "view printable version" option on this board. If you have a fairly good friend that could e-mail that page to you every couple of hours, you'd be at least caught up as to the goings on here. If it's a fairly overly nice friend, you could create a "Alex de Large captured" sock, or something and have them post your witty replies under that sock.

I was rather surprised that such a plate managed to get through the Department of Pubic Safety. I'd also imagine that the car gets pulled over on a fairly regular basis.

Texas must not be tough on vanity plates. One of my friends used to have (a long time ago) vanity plates that read "X QUEEN". She was not a pagent girl... She has owned a camaro before though.
