13 Ways San Francisco Is Definitely Trying to Kill You
Since you live in San Francisco, you probably pat yourself on the back a lot about what a healthy lifestyle you lead and how you're going to live to be 95. After all, that's what fresh air, getting lots of exercise, eating organic, and drinking in moderation (hahahahaha) are all about, right? And you're probably right. You probably will live to be 95. As long as one of these 13 things doesn't get you first.
Don't say we didn't warn you...
1. This donut from Bob's Donuts
All ONE POUND of it.
2. Bay to Breakers
Technically, you're gonna feel like death the day after, which we're pretty sure counts.
3. Earthquakes
You know it and we know it and yet we all still choose to live here...
4. Measles
Thanks a lot Marin Moms. Thanks a lot.
5. Jed York
If you're gonna have an aneurysm while you live in SF, this man is going to give it to you.
6. Levi's Stadium
If Jed doesn’t get you, the scorching temps at this murder sauna of a stadium will.
7. The Pacific Ocean
No, not great whites. Hypothermia. And the rip tide. Okay, and also sharks.
8. CrossFit & SoulCycle
Not doing them (although, ew), but rather dying of boredom while your friends who are fanatics go on and on about how great they are.
9. These raccoons
Who are just stone-cold chillin' in the middle of the day, rules of nature be damned.
10. Drones
Let's be real: it’s just a matter of time before one crashes into your face.
11. Eating the edibles at Dolores Park
Fine, you'll just think you're dying, but still.
12. This coyote
If not you, then your dog. Which, frankly, is almost worse.
13. Sitting on that one BART seat
You know which one we're talking about.
