Society Snaps (So Send Us Your Society Shots)
San Francisco socialites have been fellated for far too long by such hard-hitting glossies as 7x7 Magazine and San Francisco Magazine. Hell, even the pages from new society (excuse me, “philanthropy”) rag Benefit Magazine -- "the Lifestyle of Giving” is its tagline, God help us -- might lead you to believe that the upper crust would like nothing more than to head over to Bayview-Hunters Point and act as human shields from gunfire, saving the baby children. That is, if it weren’t for their goddamn too-tall Pacific Heights palace walls.
So, let's show them that these people are not, in fact, Jesus reincarnate. Without getting breaking out the guerilla moves, if you catch any San Francisco-based society ilk in an unusual act -- i.e., trying to use a BART ticket machine, going into the bathroom at Otis one too many times, counting the emeralds and rubies from their treasure chests, having a soul, sporting synthetic fibers, eating -- in public and snap a shot of it, send it our way and maybe we’ll post it. But, please, act within the limits of the law. If we come across an image of Dede Wilsey taking a dump, we’ll know that you crossed some sort of line and, sadly, must then refuse to publish it. Alas.
Send your pictures to editor@sfist.com with “Society Snaps” in the subject line. Be sure to tell us where and when you captured such glory. The staff at SFist and those who fill the pages of the social registry thank you.

Awesome, but do celebutantes count as socialites?
Love it! -AnotherMatt
Sorry, this sound like a bad idea.
How about a photo of Ed Jew taking a shower?
This is quite possibly the worst thing I've seen on this site ...ever.
Just so I am clear: Because there are a few glossy mags out there that arent emulating street sheet - you guys want to post bad pictures of supposedly famous people?
How about you run around town painting moustaches on billboards?
Seriously, are you a bunch of eight year olds over there?
Dahlings I think this is the most terrible idea I've ever heard. My Wellesly girlfriends and I are going to boycott this interwebsite thing of yours if you continue to make fun of us wealthy people. Nobody wears rubies anymore anyway, why would we count them? That's so 1950's Judy Garland. Speaking of Judy, it's time to party. Coke is the what all the finest ladies about town are doing these days, it really helps with the pleasure of being rimmed by San Francisco Magazine and 7x7.
@ 1995 I was standing at the Clinique counter in Neiman Marcus & was rudely interrupted by a frantic tall guy who was obviously well known to some of the salesgirls - he had a big hickey on his neck & was demanding "emergency concealer!" He said his mother was expecting him that evening & couldn't get away with wearing a turtleneck... Billy Getty! Who at that time had a "roommate" named Gavin Newsom. If only I'd had a cell-phone camera then!
It is WELLESLEY, actually.
SFist thinks that rich people are silly. Ok, we get it. Can we move on with some actual news please? Or at least some making fun of Ed Jew?
Please let us know when anyone from any tax bracket "heads over to Bayview-Hunters Point and act as human shields from gunfire, saving the baby children".
