I'm always amused by the completely transparent attempts of bars to be "good neighbors" by posting those "please be respectful and quiet" signs. Its like drug dealers giving out dime bags while pleasantly requesting users not steal to pay for their fix.
Hey anonymous 2:07 - No it's not. It's not like that at all. I think a better analogy would be if drug dealers asked their clientele if they wouldn't mind being quite after they used (but only if they were using right at the spot where they purchased from). Or maybe if the UCB were selling comedy shows and drinks outside of the venue as well and then asked them to...hmmm, this is hard. Let me go back to what I was originally saying, no, it's not like that at all. But at least the sign is "amusing" to you (in a "transparent" way). Sounds like UCB is doing their stated job! Hooray for people who wear shorts with extra pockets like so many famed explorers!!!!
I'm confused - The writer is trying to sleep and they're too noisy, or he's trying to walk down the street and they're in the way - How can you complain about both?

UCB = BAD neighbor. BOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
see what happens when you start to openly tolerate a proliferation of cargo shorts. nothing good... nothing good.
Instructing drunk people to keep their voices down or be considerate of others--it never works.

It's the swooshing sound of the cargo shorts rubbing together that is the main problem.

@ David @ 3rd St
The sign leaver was sleep walking.
