On By the Numbers: The McSweeney's 'San Francisco Panorama' Experiment
got the last one at L.A.'s Book Soup yesterday. it's a nice looking thing, but discussions i've seen on the content are rather slim. that's probs due to the fact that it's freaking ridiculously heavy and most people probs won't read it. but having made it through only a few pages myself, i've got another reason: the awkies chills i'm getting for the san franciscans who wrote it, and the whiff of disarmingly hesitant gentrification and cloying social justice consciousness that emanates from the pages. at least as far as Panorama goes, the cliches of the bay are confirmed as reality. awkies chillll.
or, maybe i'm just not into dave eggers. go figger.

well you sat me down, balsa. you're the cooliest of 'em all!
btw, awkies chills:
The chills one gets when witnessing extreme awkwardness displayed by another individual.
A combination of the terms "awkies" and "douche chill," the latter being the chills one gets when witnessing extreme douche baggery.
Ex: "That blog comment said 'probs' so many times it gave me awkies chills."
