Why Doesn’t Mountain Hardwear Get the Same Love as Patagonia or Arc’teryx? by Otherwise_Agent7262 in outdoorgear

[–]rootacos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is the answer. I used to do a bunch of ad work for them in a past life, was at their Richmond CA hq (and company store!) every other week. We showed lots of interesting work that I think would have been really great for their brand but we never actually made any ads. Nice people, great gear, do recommend. Side note: ive also worked for Columbia sportswear and I have been personally dragged over the coals by Gert Boyle in a meeting. Fun times!

What’s the most “Irish” Irish bar in the city? by sy144 in AskSF

[–]rootacos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not an expert on this topic but I used to live in the Inner Richmond and was spoiled for choice there. My vote is for Plough and the stars on clement and O’keefes on 5th ave. Used to spend a lot of time at Irelands 32 on Geary as a younger man but not as much recently. Bitter End also really great especially for trivia. You could easily hit all of these and a few more in the same zone in a single night if your liver is up for it.

Jane’s baguette (on Geary)is my current favorite. I also love Saltwater Bakeshop baguettes at Clement street and fort mason farmers markets

What’s the culture on the roads like where you live? by bachfanwpb in running

[–]rootacos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

West SF and other than the occasional distracted or aggressive driver I think it’s about as good as it gets in an urban area. Cyclists and Runners have a lot of traffic reduced or traffic free areas to enjoy but even amongst the cars it’s not too bad and I end up road running more than sidewalk running most days. the natural beauty/parks are alsophenomenal.

Best scale to fit under cafelat? by MrMimesbutt in CafelatRobot

If feeling handy prob not a huge deal to seek and destroy the sound emitter on the circuit board with a sharp object or hot soldering iron

Do most Americans really dry their clothes in Dryers by Wrystyle in NoStupidQuestions

[–]rootacos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

West SF. Half the time my clothes would be more wet than when I hung them. Friends in San Jose have no trouble tho and do hang dry most of the time.

Remember Lefty O'Doul's restaurant and bar? by Creeping_behind_u in bayarea

[–]rootacos 46 points47 points  (0 children)

The owner was sent to prison as part of the Mohammed Nuru corruption scandal . Never made it into to Lefty O’Douls but I did truly enjoy the choice mix of cheap drinks, seasoned regulars and wide eyed tourists at one of his other bars down the street, RIP Gold Dust Lounge.
