Eat: Cochon 555

5pm, Sun Jun 14th, at The Fairmont; 950 Mason St, at California; Nob Hill; 404.849.3569

The finale of this traveling tour de pork features five 75 lb heritage breed piggies, grilled/spiced/cured/pickled/etc by five top Bay chefs (from A16, Boulevard, Poggio...). Entry not only gets you all you can grub, but all you can drink from the 400+ bottles of vino supplied by five local winemakers (e.g., Krupp Bros, Hirsch, Arcadian) -- shoring you up with confidence regarding your swine fluency.

Gear: Androids on Muni Tee

From an LA screen printing shop obsessed with androids, the shirt comes in aqua, gold, and white, and features eight happy little fellows on a decently standard bus, save some rear rocket boosters and the phrase "Androids Always Win", which should really read "Androids Are Always Late For Work".

Click: Tweeting Too Hard

If you Tweet stuff like "i kid you not, i have a follower who is only following britney spears, russell brand, kim kardashian, gossip girl, and me”, you're probably a putz, and your drivel belongs on TTH, a bottomless collection of 140-characters-or-less proclamations of self-importance. Automatically re-tweet faves, vote 'em to the top with "back-pats", or just go on telling people stuff like, "Went to the gym this morning. As I left, everyone said I was the best!".

Ugh, they just go on and on at TweetingTooHard.com

Eat: Free Dreyer's Ice Cream

Pier 39; Fisherman's Wharf; 415.398.3152

Hit Pier 39 this Sunday for generous free scoops (one per you) of four new Dreyer's flavors: Chocolate Peanut Butter Chunk, Java Mashup (w/ espresso n' cookie hunks), Chocolate Cookies n' Cream Collision, and Nestle Drumstick. While you're there, enter to win an "ice cream block party" for you and a hundred friends -- which'll totally dwarf the weak turnout at FroYopalooza.
