Also, sadly, this the party will be underrepresented in terms of white belts and fresh kicks.

But you spelled "douche" correctly, so you've got that going for you.

south-of-market (gentrifying yuppies/dotcom survivors/people who actually applauded Barry Bonds);

the financial district (old money yuppies);

Pier 39 (99% midwestern tourists).

Berkeley may have to arrange some flotillas for this event.
