FLIRTY WORK

            Your Not-So-Valentine's-Day Valentine's Day Options

You’re not ready to fully commit to Valentine’s Day. Fortunately, there are options for that. Like Toca
Madera, where they’re launching a new card game called “We’re Not Really Strangers” to break the ice. And
Tiki-No, which will give everyone candy, chocolate-filled martini glasses and love-themed karaoke. And a
tiki bar.

Friday

HOOP DOGGY DOGG

            Oh, Just Snoop Dogg Playing 2 Chainz in Basketball

It’s NBA All-Star Weekend, a frenzy of hoops-related activities. Among them, a basketball game between West
Coast and East Coast artists, led by captains Snoop Dogg and 2 Chainz, featuring players like Fabolous and
Waka Flocka Flame at 747 Warehouse. Tickets are being released at surprise retailers. Godspeed.

SEQUIN GLOVE SERVICE

            Prince vs Bowie. And You Have to Decide.

There’s a battle going down at the Viceroy’s poolside on Friday night. In one corner, you’ve got David Bowie
and the Beatles. In the other, you’ve got Prince and Michael Jackson. In the middle, you’ve got a bunch of
people dancing silently in headphones. Their movements will be strange, but effective.

Sunday

FATTY SHACK

            Your Early Morning Mooshu Pork Burritos and Sichuan Tater Tots

You can generally expect to eat well when brunch starts at a place called Little Fatty. What you might not
expect: Mooshu pork burritos. And fried Hainan chicken and waffles. And Sichuan tater tots. And Chinese
donuts. And Bloody Marys. Okay, you expected Bloody Marys.

Monday

VIRTUAL REALITY SHOW

            In the Future, All Movies Will Look Like This

February, 2018. You walk into the Ace’s Segovia Hall to find it transformed into a virtual reality film
festival filled with Voyagers, the world’s first full-motion VR chairs. And there you will sit for three
immersive films touching on intergalactic travel and alien abduction. But man, those chairs.

PRIVATE PARTS

            These Are the Most Private Islands in the Universe

Go to them. Go to them now. Oh, and here’s a gentleman’s guide to grand romantic gestures, in case you had one planned for
later tonight. Plus: if you’re planning on seeing Black Panther on Friday, but have
no idea what’s going on in the world of Black Panther, this will make for a good primer.

Hadley Tomicki lives in Los Angeles. He is probably going nowhere on the 10 Freeway this very second.
