• LAist found Satan's ice cream truck trolling the streets, and they recorded the music.
• Some crafty Torontoist readers didn't like the dearth of ski hills in downtown Toronto, so they just built one of their own on their deck and (of course) recorded a video of them all taking turns on it.
• Bostonist knows the city's subway and bus system, the MBTA, has problems. So does this 17-year-old who submitted a report and told the MBTA brass how to fix it.

We found ourselves asking ourselves lots of questions when we decided to post this piece of urban art that SFist reader Mike found on the corner of Sutter and Larkin last week. We were like, is this not suitable for work? It's just graffiti, and it looks just like all the beautiful vagina clichés that are cliché for a reason. It's like a lovely clam, or a caterpillar transforming into a butterfly, or a head of cabbage resting in a loaf of French bread (see full image after the jump). This tagger is the Georgia O'Keeffe of the streets, we tell you. (But, if they hadn't written "VAGINA," would we be at all sure, it was in fact, a vagina?) more ›

SFist reader Mai sent us this precious find that she found last Friday at 22nd and Valencia. Below is Mai's transcription, about which she said, "I tried to stay as true to the capitalization as I could." Thanks, Mai! more ›
