See how that balances out?
Actually, I don’t think these ads are necessarily pro or anti semitic.
But I didn’t see how the prior ads were “anti-gay.”
On It Goes…
Are you up to speed on this one?
Laird Harrison of KQED has the deets on the original “My Jihad” campaign.
Then some lady spent money on ads making fun of that campaign. An example can be found here.
But then the SFMTA responded by quoting Maya Angelou since it couldn’t figure out any different way of responding to pressure.
Which, at the time, wasn’t clear to me because Maya Angelou is still alive, right?
So now, I see this ad and now I understand:

OK fine, a mystery solved…

Back in the day down there betwixt San Francisco’s Financial District and the Golden Gateway Apartments, tourists would come along and just hold their hands out, with astonishing results.

Ah mem’ries;
First it was all like this (Yes, this is the view you’ll get of the 415′s famous wild parrots from our Filbert Steps.)
The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill
But now it’s all like this. (Gee, should I get a Chinese character inked on my Europid skin and be a laughingstock for the rest of my life or should I get something cool like this instead? Mmmm, decisions, decisions…)
Wow! That’s a good one, Deanna Wardin of Tattoo Boogaloo.
That’s the best tattoo I’ve seen in the 415.
The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill were made famous a few years back by the movie with the same name. Get the new Special Two-Disc Collector’s Edition today, why don’t you?

You know, when I see all the “improvements” what have come to the Mid-Market since Willie Brown stooge Ed Lee worked to undo the tax signed into law by Willie Brown stooge Gavin Newsom in 2004,* I think, wow, how much better would things be in the Mid-Market if Mark Pincus had donated $100,000 to Mayor Ed Lee (you know, instead of just $50,000) so that the City and County of San Francisco would have then “invested” $3.5 million into Zynga (you know, instead of just $1.75 million).
In closing, please remember that all social problems can only be solved through investments in real estate.
*Yep. Gavin Newsom the Tax Raiser, the Job Killer. It was a different era.
Believe it or not, this is a color photograph of the Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill.

Ever more deets, after the jump

These South American parrots should feel right at home in a south-of-the-Equator tree, non?

Will their chicks soon join the flock in Telegraph Hill?
Or maybe they’ll just end up hanging out in Sue Bierman Park eating flowers:
It will be one or the other, probably…
