No this is not the first, Gwyneth-related post, (and yes, she is my “white whale”) I was inspired by this link my sister sent me today, when we were idly G-chatting about bullshit, to discuss why Gwyneth Paltrow and her wealthy peers makes Broke-Ass-itude so appealing.
Having been a long time disgustee of Gwyneth’s brand of [...]
This past CMJ season I had the chance to attend a show at one of the most hateful and awful musical venues this side of Terminal 5 at a little place called Santos Party House. The floor space was cold and weird with its white concrete walls, huge plaster columns and blue and pink and [...]
Until now, I’d never heard of 5A5 Steak Lounge or Van Gogh Vodka. But I’m pretty sure it’s because they run in different circles than I do. My wallet makes me more of a Palace Family Steakhouse and well vodka kind of cat. But that’s cool, I’m down for the fancy stuff when I can [...]

As a purveyor of cheap fun, it’s my honor to inform you that I’ve secured you FREE seats for a sneak peek of the new movie Humpday, an indie film starring Mark Duplass and Josh Leonard. I just watched the trailer and it looks like it’s gonna be pretty fucking hilarious. Unfortunately I don’t get [...]

If there is one thing that we love here at Broke Ass HQ, its music. From Ashley’s post about the crushing on Natasha Khan, or the sweet, soulful sounds of Stu’s [and now my] obsession with Stax Records, we live for the music. Lucky for you, I have been working less on haikus and more [...]
I need to be careful when telling you about the JeJune Institute. I say this because so much of the thrill and wonder associated with it comes from the surprises it holds. So let me begin by just saying that taking part in the JeJune Institute is hands down one of the most enjoyable ways [...]
The big summer holiday weekend approaches, folks and in the interest of planning ahead and maximizing fundage before Friday I am taking a three-pronged approach to this post. First things first…
Drinking Alcohol
Last Friday after work in the West Village, just before the pre-apocalyptic skies moved in, my boyfriend and I were in the market for [...]
Every week we feature a different person from the community shedding a little light on their life of brokeitude. Who knows, maybe you’ll learn something about the human spirit…probably not.
The Bryant Park Film Festival is great for chilling outside, enjoying great weather and checking people out. It’s not so great, however, if you’re actually really interested in hearing the films dialogue. Fortunately this week’s selection should be long on visual impact so even if the noise of the city drowns out the actors voices, [...]
In honor of Gay Pride Day this past Sunday, I’ve compiled a list of 10 awesome people who currently are or should be gay icons in the LGBT community, but for some reason are not revered at a Judy Garland or Streisand level. Thus, I demand a recount to include the following people.
And a-gay we [...]
I was on my way to work the other day when I walked by Taqueria Los Coyotes. I noticed they had a huge banner outside that read “Buy One Burrito, Get One Free” and I made a note of it so I could share this information with all you lovely people. Unfortunately, I wasn’t observant [...]
I know all you Bay Area folks are probably out in the sun, getting down with your gayness right now and not looking at your computer. But for those of you who do end up checking the site, there’s an awesome event Monday night.
In my opinion, Stax Records was probably, if not the best record label [...]
Do you want to experience the weirdness of Burning Man, but want none of the mud, questionable sex, or, any actual burning “man”? If you answered yes, then, get your hippie hipster ass to The Bklyn Yard for The Love Canal party on, duh, the Gowanus Canal, for what seems like the second coming of [...]
Yes indeed, it’s the time of the year again where I start soliciting your love and affection by asking you to vote for little ol’ me and this super-duper cool website. The venerable San Francisco Bay Guardian is holding it’s annual Best of the Bay competition and I’m asking you, yes you kind reader, [...]
Our awesome friends at Shotwell dropped us a line yesterday to let you know that they are moving to a new space, so you reap the benefits.

You can get a new, slammin outfit to hit Pride and still have enough cash [...]
