It is a miracle that not one person got hurt or a fatality. I walked by there around 10:00 pm and it was a interesting thing you normally don’t see. Oh yeah on that comment about hipsters, that is them in a nutshell. Seriously put some care in the world you (fill in the blank with slander towards hipster)

I'd like to apologize on behalf of all numbered fuckers for putting such intense competitive pressure on Allan. He dropped the ball on this story so badly that the Chron has yet to cover it, and he completely missed this critical piece of car crash related news. MM vs SFgate (SFgate loses)

Sorry, Allan. Your excuses just aren’t going to cut it. I want my money back for this blog.

Mark H., I appreciate your criticism, and believe me every day I wrestle with whether or not I should devote more time to a given post. When I was working the first Forlorn Candy Corn post for instance, it tore me up inside that I was unable to do further research into the origin of the character, the process by which it is applied to a given wall, and the artist or artists behind it. But I hit "publish" anyway, in an effort to get what little shred of news out there into the ether in as timely a fashion as possible. Were I to invest the time it would take to suss out the details and check the facts, one of those numbered fuckers like Johnny0 or Plug1 would surely scoop me. And then where would I be? Sitting on an unpublished candy corn goldmine with my thumb up my ass, that's where.

who crashed into the bank? how much money in damages? Was the driver insured? Did police offficers make any arrests? God damn. Bad blogging like this will ensure that the dinosaurs will still kick your ass. I hope the chronicle doesn’t crumble, otherwise i’ll be left with crap like this. All your retarded comments gravitate toward the pseudo-witty. Don’t you people want to know wtf happened? Jesus Christ.

Perfect expression of anger toward the financial system. Now if only I could drive my fucking house through a fucking bank I’d feel much better about the clusterfuck Wall St has ignited.

[...] (This weekend, February went out with a bang, literally – with another shooting on Capp St. and holy mother a car crashing into the Wells Fargo on 22nd and Mission.) Goodness knows you can’t ask for a more roaring start to a month than a free show by a [...]

I walked by this when the car was still halfway through the building and the whole corner was jam packed with gawkers. Best part was a hipster walking by saying “ugh, bored people will just look at ANYTHING, won’t they?”. Um, dude, a fucking car drove through a bank. I guarantee you are not on your way to do anything more interesting to look at than that.

Passed this mess yesterday evening. It reinforced my hatred for cars. Banks I hate, too, of course.

I agree. Either of us could have come up with much more creative titles for this. But I think straightforward was the way to go. Let the mess speak for itself.
