Default In case there was any doubt that San Francisco has gone into the crapper

 
Francisco transportation officials said workers repairing an escalator had to call in a hazardous materials team to remove human excrement.

Bay Area Rapid Transportation officials said a crew pulled apart a broken escalator at the Civic Center Station and discovered such a high volume of human fecal matter that a hazardous materials team had to be called in to remove it, the San Francisco Chronicle reported Thursday.

Officials said human excrement is a frequent cause of malfunction for BART escalators. They said homeless people will often use the stairwells for sleeping or relieving themselves once the stations close.

The only thing it lacks is a homeless guy saying "Why do you care if I crap on the escalator? You didn't build that!" And as Mitch Hedberg fans already know, an escalator can never be out of order. It is just temporarily stairs. Sorry for the convenience.

You know what date is on this coin? 1958. It's been traveling 22 years to get here. And now it's here. And it's either heads or tails, and you have to say. Call it.

I'm not sure, but I suppose you could pose that one to Dear Abby.
