True story: Right after leaving the theater to see F911...
I was waiting at the bus stop by the Van Ness AMC theater. As I waited, I noticed a guy with a girl, the guy was doing all kinds of cool tricks with a yo-yo. Apparently he does these tricks for the tourists down at Fisherman's Wharf. Anyway as he practiced, a car drove by slowly, and the passenger, a young man with long ratty dark hair yelled "Yo-yo!........For me to POOP ALL OVER!!!!" then they drove away. The yo-yo-ist didn't pay it much mind and continued his practice.

All I could think was- how pathetic and sad must some people's lives be that they have to yell obnoxious things at strangers on the street? And why would they choose to live here in SF, a city that is supposed to be about peace and kindness and tolerance?

No, my anecdote has nothing to do with F-911 except that it happened right after. Isn't that refreshing?

10. Triumph is funny...
Yelling obnoxious things at strangers on the street is not.

6. He looked around 24 or so.
He looked and acted like a total a-hole with know idea of what love or happiness are.

Sad...

5. Yeah. I love Triumph!
But the guy did get it wrong. Besides, Triumph doesn't bug people minding their own business on the street. He seemed like a total loser.

7. I love the Bush man who scares tourists at Fisherman's Wharf
Edited on Sun Jun-27-04 01:35 AM by BEFOREATHOUGHT
He has a buddy who distracts the tourists then he jumps out at them with the Bush/branch in hand. They jump everybody laughs. It's all in good fun and never gets old.

Even our great SF has Assholes.

15. It's pathetic
even if it isn't a big deal, whatever happened to civility?? Still when you have a Veep as a role model who thinks if it makes you feel better you should just holler out whatever you please, all kinds of rude behavior is to be expected. ;)

14. Some people are just
such losers that to get attention they have to yell at someone who is having a good time and minding their own business. People like that are pathetic because they have to get their 'jollies' by trying to spoil someone else's fun. :-(
