You Know You've Lived in SF For Awhile When...

1. If you have a car, it's been towed at least once. And more often than not, you wonder why it is that you keep your car.

2. You know your local panhandlers, and have heard the same panhandling stories over and over again and you want to scream, "I'm a local!"

3. You know that kid who dresses dapperly and sings for money on the Embarcadero, but more often than not, you are just angry at his mom for exploiting him.

4. You know that the Sunset is out there, but you never ever go.

5. You probably spend more time drinking during the daylight hours than you do after dark.

6. You have a million ride-sharing apps in your phone and you think it's really weird when people don't.

7. You have a winter coat that gets a lot of use in July. And you never leave the house without a sweater.

8. You know all the bars with outdoor patios, and you feel bad when you don't spend at least a few hours in a park when it's really nice out.

9. You probably play cornhole.

10. Going across the bridge is a big pain in the neck and you usually count the minutes until you can cross back into SF.

11. You have had a Blue Bottle coffee.

12. You hardly ever use an umbrella unless the rain is sideways.

13. You are obsessed with how much people pay in rent, and your first thought when you see old people walking around SF is "They must pay nothing."

14. You stay on top of new restaurants and bars.

15. Brunch is a big deal.

16. You enjoy Monday through Thursday nights out, because amateur B & T'ers come over on Friday and Saturday nights and my god will those people please learn how to order drinks?

17. You know exactly where you pre-party for rock shows at different venues (Independent - Mini Bar, Rickshaw - Brass Tacks, Warfield - Showdown, Fillmore - Social Study or Fat Angel)
