Two notes form the weekend-

-I was walking down 16th street wearing my baggy Giants sweatshirt. I like baggy things. Harlan and I pass a homeless guy and the guy actually said "I like your sweatshirt. It looks good on someone as big as you."

Yes, some homeless guy just called me fat.

-Walking down 17th street (or was it 18th street?), Harlan say a sign that said, and I quote: Put Your Trust in "Jesus"-- just like that, with the quotes around "Jesus." As she pointed out, doesn't putting something in quotation marks make it ironic? Like they're saying Jesus with air quotes around it. So, was it just a weird sign put up by somebody not clued in the ways of irony or was the irony intended? It's so hard to tell in the Mission.
