Tourists
Tom and I were on our way to Webzine this morning on the Muni and this guy sat in front of us. He looked at a (straight) couple that had just gotten on the street car with us and said, “Hey, you guys from out of town?”
“Yeah, why?”
“There’s this great event going on today. It’s called the Folsom Street Fair.”
The girl could barely conceal her snark as she said, “Yes, we know.”
That was mean, yo. You don’t just send two tourists into the Folsom Street Fair without at least telling them what it is. I mean, no one hates tourists more than we do in DC, but we don’t play mean tricks on them…
At least the guy we met yesterday in the Castro said, “But if you go, you can’t have any inhibitions.” Fair warning, after all.
