As you've hopefully noticed from our past few Best Of Summer 2012 retrospectives, we had a pretty great summer in most regards, from crazy pool parties to club openings. But we realized that some of our favorite posts from the past few months defied easy categorization. Some of these were news or gossip items that we just had to share with you guys, some are looks at L.A. history or local characters, and there's even a retrospective of shamelessly debaucherous tequila tales in there that you can choose to view as either a warning or a challenge. Enjoy them all: I know we did.
