Hey Yospos. It is me, Peanut and the Gang. I wanted to talk to you a little bit about San Francisco.

I wanna travel a bit, and I'm thinking SanFran would be a great area to visit since I've only been on the east coast all my life. I'm thinking maybe a week or two total, probably end of September or mid-October. Since half of Yospos lives in the bay area, I'm wondering if you could give some advice as to what would be suitable for a tourist to check out and enjoy (It'll probably be just me going). And maybe what are some good hacker houses to live in because they're the cheapest lodging, clocking in at a reasonable $1000 a day.

everything worth doing in san francisco has at least a two hour line so find things with the longest lines and stand in them [actually eating or drinking at these places is optional]

I'll also be there in the middle of the day so hopefully the lines will only be a mere 1hr 59mins.

My brother works at Cisco, not to be confused with San Francisco, which is a 42 hour distance away by automobile. That would be the suckiest commute.

Idk if this is a joke answer. It looks like a place that sells crabs, so I'm guessing it's the rotor hotspot.

in attempt to be useful after scrolling through hoards of useless information, here is my list that can help you see cool poo poo:

1) go to mount diablo, the view is incredible and not many people hang out up there. you can also try twin peaks if you have the time.
2) you can check out golden gate park. if you like frisbee golf, or have friends that enjoy frisbee golf, they have a course there.
3) check out alameda beaches. they're pretty nice to see the san francisco cityline without the san francisco bustle.
4) go to haight and ashbury. got some really weird and neat poo poo there.
5) there's union square, the japanese tea garden, and south of market street which is a pretty cool walk.
6) in terms of nightlife, just yelp it.
