overheard

two women walking up Hillway at UCSF

one turns to the other out of breath and says "i need to move back to New Jersey"

...

two Latino boys walking past the Hippocrates statue on Parnassus at UCSF

one of the boys laughs loudly and says to his friend "that's Hippocrates ma'fucker, even *I* know who that is!"

Who the f*** moves to New Jersey from SF??? Well, it could have been worse. She could have said Texas instead of NJ.

it was all very cinematic, and she was aware of that...you know like in a movie and a tornado happens and the character looks at the camera or something and quips with a dumb new york accent "i need to move back to new york..."

Q: "Who the FUCK (the word is FUCK, not F***) moves to New Jersey from SF?"

Q: What is wrong with New Jersey & what in the fuck is so great about San Francisco?

at least you didn't ask who the fuck would move to Chicago from San Francisco, becausse then I would have the only option but to assume you were a moron

Hi John!

you're missing the context, which is, these ladies were walking up an extremely steep hill, the kind only found in san francisco...so, "i need to move back to new jersey" as a joke...geez.

armand, don't get you blue-collar (ascot, natch!) cheerleading all in bunch. i've never been to new jersey so i have no idea if anything is wrong with it...some people say concord (rolling stone magazine says so) is the new jersey of the bay area so who knows, maybe i'd love new jersey...i like the sopranos, and the Boss, and Bon Jovi.

and fuck off...do you really want a litany of why san francisco is great?

hi armand, come back from chicago already...i'm getting to bed at a decent hour and i'm sick of it...
