Closeup of Anti-Whoring Sign at Powell and Market

Frank Chu and the "Jesus Loves You" guy seem to get all of the crazy-loon-with-crazier-sign attention. It's just not fair So, here's a shot of the sign that the guy at Powell and Market, near the cable car turnaround, has by his side screams "damned whore, repent!" at passersby.

NOPA Says 'No' To Flashy Traffic Signs

Trouble is stirring in San Francisco's adorable NOPA district. It seems some residents are none too thrilled with the "large electronic traffic information signs" planned for Oak and Fell Streets. The city wants to install these big electronic signs near Divisadero, directing drivers to parking garages ans such, and the neighborhood's residents don't like it because, obviously, they're ugly.

The morbidly curious, a smattering of animal enthusiasts, and, of course, the media will line up to get into the SF Zoo when it reopens to the public at 10 a.m. tomorrow. In addition to a Tatiana-free environment, zoo visitors will also notice a few other changes. For instances, new signs reminding visitors that they are "guests in the [animals]" and not to "tap on glass, throw anything into the exhibit, make excessive noise, tease or call out to them." (We can't imagine to whom they're referring.) Also, reinforced-glass will make its debut in the tiger grotto, as well as loudspeakers telling visitors to scram come closing time.

SFist Editor Emeritus Cheshire tipped us off to a site he helped put together that helps you make your own jukebox label. It's pretty cool, actually, in the same way those Church Generator Signs things are cool. So, inspired, we made up our dream jukebox selection, which you can see to your right. Man, we loved Creed back in the day.

Now, SFist doesn't usually go to modern dance performances (we're never sure when to clap, for one thing), but last year, our yoga class went to the ODC theater to see our yoga teacher dancing in the corps for Chris Black and the POTRZEBIE Dance Project's The Ecstasy of Saint Whatshername.
