Bowling Gone Wrong
Seriously Zodo’s? Were you even trying? I imagine some evil rival bowling alley might have paid for that ad in your name just to fuck up your reputation… if, in fact, there were a rival bowling alley around here. Actually, come to think of it, what the fuck are you advertising for anyway? If you […]
Unearth Your Inner Futsukayoi
Early in the morning in Kobe, Japan, I witnessed my friend puke in an alley behind our hotel while our host yelled “Futsukayoi!” over and over. Multiple mornings over this past, particularly heinous weekend, I noticed many people wake up, drink a beer or slap a bag of wine and get immediately hammered.

How we destroy our streets with Halloween. How we cost the city boundless amounts of money and are a general drain on society. Isla Vista is Santa Barbara County’s unwanted stepchild, the bastard offspring SB just couldn’t get rid of. The city of Santa Barbara doesn’t want Isla Vista, Goleta doesn’t want Isla Vista – nobody wants us. So what do we do? Sure enough, we act out like any child denied the attention it wants.
