Google Earth and the wonderful “Street View” option has sucked up many an hour of company time, at least in my life. Thus, it is with attendant joy that I bring you the link to one of the most awesome websites I’ve seen in recent memory, Atlas Obscura. Described in the words of the creators, ... Read More →
Dear St. Patrick,
Please let me go somewhere fun on YOUR DAY.
Please let me eat some of that awesome corned beef and cabbage that I love!
Please let me find my green face makeup and shamrock necklace in my apartment somewhere.
Please let my friends agree to go to that place that serves green beer.
Please don’t let me ... Read More →
I had completely forgotten about the Alite Launch Party until I saw Monica post this on facebook:
dj’s + urban forest + free booze + dog lounge + live screenprinting + sex charades = why would start your friday night anywhere else? come check out SF’s urban camping company and their goods.
I couldn’t agree more! I ... Read More →

Oh, my poor suffering laptop. In the five years I’ve owned it I’ve drown it in Oolong, infected it with viruses, used it, abused it and neglected it like a guy who followed me home from a bar. However, unlike that guy, I still need to use my laptop. When my monitor started to give ... Read More →
In case you haven’t noticed the pattern, pretty much any time there’s a major drinking holiday in the Bay Area our very responsible friends at Berg Injury Lawyers like to pay for your cab ride home. Even though I have no idea how this is at all profitable for them, it sure is incredible PR. ... Read More →
In case you couldn’t tell by the groups of people wearing Leprechaun hats and shiny green plastic beads with giant shamrocks, it’s St. Patrick’s Day. It’s one of the few minor holidays where you can close your eyes, spin in a circle while pointing, go into whichever bar you land on and find that it’s ... Read More →
I have a strong premonition that you’ll be feeling the effects of St. Patrick’s Day Shitshow 2010 on Thursday morning while you’re getting ready for work, avoiding your ghastly reflection in the mirror at all costs and wondering what you should be more ashamed of: the dangerously irresponsible amount of alcohol you ingested the night ...

The Depreciation Guild is set to release their sophomore album, “Spirit Youth”, on May 18th. Kurt Feldman answered a few questions about the band over email in front of their appearance in Austin at SXSW and their spring tour with Serena Maneesh. The DG will be playing at Bottom of the Hill at 17th and ... Read More →
How do I know spring has sprung? The son-of-a-bitch birds explode with an endless array of cheery chirps outside my window every God-forsaken morning.
It’s like clockwork. An hour before my alarm goes off!
And there’s one ballsy little fucker – a male cardinal, or as I like to call him, the feathery devil – that finds ... Read More →
Ever since I wrote about, and subsequently went to see, the Maurice Sendak exhibit at the Contemporary Jewish Museum, I’ve fallen in like with everything about that place. I like the architecture, I like that it has cheap tickets ($5) every Thursday after 5pm, I like that it’s across the street from work, and I ... Read More →
We here at Broke-Ass Stuart remember a kinder, gentler, funkier time when there was an entire network devoted to playing awesome new music videos. Men named Pinfield and women named Idalis would introduce block after block of original music videos from various genres interspersed with interviews with musicians and video directors, which would be followed ...

Before moving to New York, I never gave much thought about going to brunch. It was something reserved for holiday buffets and visiting parents. Not the boozy hot mess it is now. Even when I have friends visit from out of town, they give me funny looks when I suggest brunch as if to say, ... Read More →
If you’re into contemporary dance, and you’re in San Francisco, then you must know about ODC. They’ve been holding it down in SF since 1976 and are on the forefront of all things dancy…although I’m pretty sure “dancy” isn’t a technical term.
I have two pairs of tickets to giveaway to a really cool event their ... Read More →
“How much should I spend on massages each month?” – DW
Wow that is a super specific question AND you don’t sound like a broke ass! Ok, I’ll go easy on you. It is a fantastic question and one that is similar to questions that many people ask themselves. If you have read any of my articles you will know by now that I can’t directly answer most questions like this. Well, I could just say “$100,” but I would be way short of my article length expectation.
(Pretty) Girls and Lasers, the electro duo everyone seems to be whispering about, is moving their monthly party to Happy Ending, and the LES couldn’t be more ecstatic. The boys will be in the DJ booth all night long, starting at 10pm, and from 11-midnight, there will be an Open (and FREE) Vodka Bar! There’s ... Read More →
Apparently myself and team Broke-Ass have been nominated for INORUM’s “New Face of SF Media”. And they’re leaving it up to the public to vote for the winner. Here’s what they have to say:
Sites like SFist.com and the Muni Diaries are doing more than just keeping San Franciscans in the know about the latest bar ... Read More →
Amidst the stress of paying NYC rent, trying to afford the train, cable, the phone bill and assorted other expenditures it’s nice to be able to satisfy a food craving for only a couple of dollars. We’ve covered pizza, tacos, burgers, falafel and booze on this site but I wanted to take a moment to ... Read More →
