How to talk like a San Franciscan

It's an interesting list that fails to include one essential, a real San Franciscan lives in SF not elsewhere in the Bay Area!!!

I'll bet LucieV would disagree with you, SAB :-)

If the list includes fending off panhandlers at every turn as well as dying of old age while waiting for a taxicab to show up I'm sure it is right on target. Only thing more authentic would be the usual telling everybody that old falsehood that there's more to do culturally in thecity than in Los Angeles.

I'm sure lots of native born San Franciscans who now live outside of the City will. I know lots of transplants who still live in the City and have done so for far longer than many "natives" who now live on the Peninsula.

If you look like you know where you are going - you probably look like a "SFan" and can also consider yourself one. :)

As for talking like a "SFan"- more or less the same. If you ask a whole bunch of Q's - one might surmise you are not a local.

Really cute, mlgb! Thanks for posting!

That is cute - definitely enjoyed it. I am not a San Franciscan, but I always wished I was :)
