The Non Pretensious Map of Frisco

You hear it all the time, people trying to engage in renters-bragging about what section of Frisco they live in, using phrases like "The Marina" or "Cow Hollow" or SOMAPOTMISS or Mission Bay, or Dogpatch --as if every block required it's own Nomme-De-Absurdism. They seem to be making these names up every other week (as in the case of SOMAPOTMISS) in order to justify paying some ludicrous rent increase or in order to maintain some semblance of street cred or "sense of neighborhood" (as if anyone in Frisco has such a thing).

Hang it all. I am just going to refer to the stupid areas with the original District Zoning Notation.



So conversations will go:
"Oh you know, I live by Hayes Valley..."
"Oh you mean District Six."

How about:
"I live in Buena Vista but always go to the Mission for drinks, and sometimes the Castro to catch a flick!"
"Oh, so you mean you never leave District Five. Kinda lame, man."
(The entire width of Frisco from bay to breakers is 8 miles wide. This guys world fits in about 6 sq miles.)

And by the way, if you are thinking that SOMAPOTMISS smells like how it sounds, you'd be right.

More Fake Liberal BS

This crap is what you'd hear from the fake independent radio station coming out of The Mission.

The problem with this crap is twofold.
First off, the simplistic, knee jerk reaction of this piece shows that the songwriter clearly doesn't understand the complexities of foreign policy, and is still trying to merely use some twisted combination of white guilt and pathos in order to sell his message.

Secondly, I am again amazed how people who claim to have issues with "Drill Baby Drill" and other such jingoistic chants, are incapable of seeing that this crap is just like it, only with the Desktop Theme changed. It's the same idiotic uninformed crap that extremist pundits on both sides get very rich on preaching to the idiot zombies.

Frisco Sucks.

I suppose this was intended to be a parody, but in reality, it's quite the documentary. Sigh.

It's definately gotten worse with the web2.0 emergent crap cascade.

The local fake indie radio station just flat out lied right now and said Frisco is full of "thin girls in sundresses." I guess Frisco takes the idea of thin as an ironic adjective defined not only by Reuben and idealized by the people who crafted the Venus of Willendorf.

What I am saying is that most of the Frisco women are FAT. Which is why the facebook photos are shot at oblique angles. And why, for that matter, they hide on facebook, or wear baggie jeans and hoodies out to upscale clubs. To be fair, how can you not expect anyone living in a year round 60 degree F temp to not put on weight?

This is not to say all Frisco women are fat. Some of the women, of course, are on cocaine.
