Things That I’ve Noticed That Are Different About San Diego As Compared to San Francisco

1. Sprawling plains vs. self-contained districts.
You can walk for nearly people-less miles dotted with ’70s-styled stores in SD and still be in the same town, whereas a block and a half can mean the difference between the safe frivolity of the Castro and the dire straights of the Mission in SF.

2. Christian evangelicalism vs. homosexual bohemia.
Been gettin’ a lot of looooong looks since I’ve been here. Mm yeah…

3. Dirty buttons vs. hand-free convenience.
The walk/don’t walk (man/hand) signs in SD don’t just change in accrodance with the flow of traffic. You gotta get your hands dirty and do a little work.

4. Diet vs. regular.
Being chock-full of Faganese-Americans, I guess we San Franciscans are more apt to buy the fat-free variety than our rotund San sisters to the south.
