Tonight! Let’s Watch “Inside Job” and Then Riot

We weren’t born into the broke-ass caste; the wealthy jerk class forced us into lives of penny-pinching and PBR. But you don’t have to take my word for it: Go see Charles Ferguson‘s Inside Job tonight at the Red Vic Movie House. This two-hour documentary by the older Brian Boitano

Check Out San Francisco Made of Paper Tonight at The Curiosity Shoppe!

Nailed it, Chloe…nailed it. It’s no secret that we residents of San Francisco loooooooove our city.  If we didn’t, we wouldn’t live paycheck-to-paycheck, in, like, the fifth most expensive place in the country.  Yeah, it’s foggy sometimes and flipping over the handlebars of your bike when the wheels get stuck
