If you like The Mutter Museum, try: Anastasia’s Antiques — 617 Bainbridge St. — Trinkets for sale at this underappreciated thriftstore include mannequin heads, taxidermy, skulls and, according to one amused Yelper, a book entitled “How to Use Your New Vibrator.” For those with a macabre sense of humor.

Protein you can't believe wasn't butchered.
Tap House is for shmoozing, Blarney’s is for athletes and Smoke’s is for Kweder. Go against the grain and get your booze fix elsewhere.
Mid-priced Indian with above average taste
At some point during my freshman year, I found myself alone with a guy I’d just met. He had dark hair and eyes, I think, and his name was a generic one I soon forgot. We were at his frat house, or maybe we weren’t. I was drunk, lost and stupid. He pulled me onto his bed, fumbling hands tugging at fistfuls of clothing. I said no and then I said it three or four more times. He called me a tease. A fucking tease. He rolled off me, and I grabbed my skirt.
Elbows plowing through crowds of black, cashmere rubbing with silk, smiles screwed on tight. Quick feet navigating in a minefield of high heels, each well–coiffed Quaker hoping to be the first to deliver a resume, the first to secure an interview.
1. Approach the bar knowing what you want. 2. Lean into the bar and have cash or a card ready. 3. Have patience. Screaming “Hey, bartender!” is more likely to get you served a watered–down drink with a splash of spit than it is to get you decent service. 4. For mixed drinks, order alcohol first then chasers. It’s a vodka cranberry, not a cranberry vodka. For beer, call out a name. Nothing screams my ID is as real as McLovin’s like saying “umm, I don’t know, do you guys have, like, Natty Lite?” You want a Rolling Rock? Say so. Confidence is key. 5. Tip your bartender! In the words of Smokes bartender Jack Smith, tipping should be “a beautiful symbiotic relationship where [the customers] give money and I make their drinks better.” Win win.

Robin Thicke’s new album is like the perfect summer fling: smooth, sexy and a little cocky. Thicke might not be someone you want to introduce to mom, but that’s kind of the point. Whether he’s swearing he “knows you want it, but you’re a good girl” in “Blurred Lines” or wanting to “shop for your underwear” in “Take it Easy on Me,” Thicke’s pickup line–heavy lyrics are breezy fun. That is, if you can ignore that little bit about wanting to “liberate you.” The album kicks off with summer staple and title track “Blurred Lines,” and moves from there to “Take it Easy on Me,” which employs club and EDM–style beats. “Ooh La La” and “Ain’t No Hat 4 That” rely on an electronic sound reminiscent of an age of disco balls and bell–bottoms, while maintaining a modern feel. This theme of blending old and new persists for the bulk of the album, which is difficult to confine in one genre. Bolstered by upbeat enthusiasm, the standout number “Get in My Way” was made for the dance floor, but a few other tracks are so bogged down by clichés that they’re hard to take seriously. “Give it to You”’s declaration “I’ve got a hit for yah, big dick for yah,” is sung with such sincerity it’s almost laughable. The album succeeds because it transforms familiar elements including ‘70s funk, ‘90s R&B, falsetto soul, and a hint of dubstep into enjoyable pop fusion. While Thicke’s other albums failed to impress critically, “Blurred Lines” earns Thicke a place among contemporaries like pop phenom Justin Timberlake and makes up for shortages in substance with unrequited fun. 99-cent download: “Get in My Way” Grade: B+
