I'm spending a week in SF (15-21 of June) and want to know what is some fun, non-touristy stuff to do, and if there are any good parties going on.

Recommend away.

non touristy things...hmmm

swing by colibri in union square on monday evening for live music and tapas style mexican plates.

the cable car museum in nob hill is pretty cool and free to enter, wouldnt consider it "too touristy"

golden gate park is huge and has lots to offer.

have you been to sf before? if not you probably wanna check out the touristy stuff. nontouristy stuff we do for fun would be like smoking bud, eating out, drinking, outdoor activities, hanging out at parks, festivals, concerts, ball games, etc

David Carradine sez,

1. The Jejune Institute - absolute weirdness, brought to you by French philosophes. Check it: Hit me

2. The End-Up, awesome awesomeness - 6th and Harrison, usually free before 11 to 12 on weekends, open always

3. Golden Gate park for just about everything including drugs and/or discgolf

4. Things to avoid - clubs in the financial district, the police, and sleeping with that ancient hippy just because you're on mushrooms

5. The cement slides in the Castro - Slides

6. Hitting random bars/house parties in the Mission - suggestions - the Attic on 24th for happy hour ($3 cosmos that WILL fuck you up) and then getting authentic (interpret as hand-washing optional) burritos, Pops for $1 beers on Wednesdays, oldies night at the Knock-out, other such activities

7. Calling all Asian people 'Lucas'.

8. Dolores Park - 18th and Dolores - on a nice weekend day. Tons o' smelly people.

Paix.
