Is there some place in the Bay Area that sells record mailing supplies?

    If you're gonna live here you CANNOT call San Francisco "San Fran" or "Frisco".

    font class="post"1b,121b, 21I've heard/read this a couple times, what's the science? Dismembering the name of a Saint or what? Most places I've lived have nick names. Why is this place so uptight about it's name?b,121b, 21b/wb,121b, 21Is there SF approved nick names for San Francisco?

    that question pops up from time to time on this board but no one ever answers. i mean other than suggesting online sources. there are times when i'm out of mailers that i get online and need a handful more without waiting for shipping. i hit up a couple of record stores around the area who have some on hand, but would cost about $2 each!b, 21b, 21so yeah, i would also like to know if there is a spot in the bay who sells supplies in bulk.

    Royalmailers is based in Emeryville. You can't just roll up to their warehouse I don't think, but you might be able to arrange a pick-up.b,121b, 21I mean, you can say "Frisco" or "San Fran" all you want I'm just warning you as a recent transplant that people will immediately tag you as an outsider. I don't really care (I'm from the East Bay and rarely go to the city) but the Bay is pretty judgemental and some people get real uptight about it.

    Indeed, even though it's apparently not cool enough to live in Berkeley according to certain ex-residents img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /1

  • Are Berzerkley and Oaktown locally approved? Knowledge me.

    Okay now you are just trying to tet my gangster. No.

  • spelunk is not playin. Everyone I know who is a "native"b,121of San Francisco (born and raised) hates those terms, preferring The city, The Sco, the Bay, or just plain San Francisco. I don't know how many times I've had to hear THE lecture about it. It's kind of silly but hometown pride is strong there.b,121b, 21Good to know about royalmailers.b,121b, 21PS-r*dn*y did you see that shanty structure in kalihi that collapsed? it's crazy.

    font class="post"1b,121b, 21I kid. Actually I'm just kind of interested in the history of this phenomenon...as a transplant (obviously.)

  • spelunkspelunk 3,400 Posts
    Yeah, I mean I don't speak for all social circles obviously but when those "The Town" shirts first started coming out my immediate reaction was "Aw hell no." I get the town reference (sh*t ain't no town, but whatever..) but having the industrial cranes as Oakland's landmark? Clearly an outsider's perspective from driving over the Bay Bridge towards the East Bay...b,121b, 21I also don't understand for the life of me what that whole "Oaklandish" thing with the tree was all about.

    Yeah I'm form Berkeley. Never was a fan of the term Berzerkeley, and never heard any gripes about Frisco or San Fran either. People give me shit for saying hella all the time but I can't help it, it's in my blood. I like "The City" but I feel like it's too ambiguous for a lot of folks. b,121b, 21I'll try that royalmailers place and see if I can pick them up.
