Some day a real rain will come: The back of a dump truck delivering 20 tons of dirt to businesses on Sixth Street in San Francisco tipped and crashed into an adult video arcade this morning, narrowly missing three patrons. The back of the truck tipped over to the side and into the wall of the store, shattering windows and dumping dirt into the part of the store that houses booths for video peep shows.
Firefighters used a thermal imager to ensure that no one had been buried dead or alive under the mound of dirt. Then they closed off the area and waited for a building inspector to deem the building structurally sound.
This is the second accident in as many years to damage adult stores at the corner of Sixth and Mission streets. On Dec. 15, 2003, a 14-Mission bus slammed into the Golden Gate Adult Superstore across the street from the Liberty Bookstore. Seventeen people were hurt in that accident.
I'm sorry, but this has to be asked...
Truck fetish, or dirt fetish?
You seem to have forgotten "architecture fetish" and "rubble fetish".
Yeah, I was trying to just include the more mainstream (read: redneck) items in there. Sorry I missed the more esoteric ones. *snicker*
I guess where that truck driver is from, drive-thru porno shops must be the norm.
If your truck is big enough, all porn shops are drive-through porn shops.
Don't you think it's marvelous what fine businesses line the "UN plaza"?
judging by the signage in the bart station they're trying to make it more UN plaza less civic center or something.
Wow, read this before attempting to drive into city, would have actually been stuck in trafic if I hadn't read this. Almost as good as 511. Thanks
You can count on me for all of your traffic reports, as long as they involve explosives or porn.
Hopefully we'll all live long enough to witness a truck accident that dumps explosive robot tentacle porn.
I know you meant, "... from a giant puppet," but feel it should be clarified.
I should leave my phone number with you. I might need these reported as they happen. The fact I'm 3k miles away is of no consequence.
We need more traffic reporters like you. And more traffic like that to report.
I am in love with your icon, and wonder if you're open to sharing it.
When user icons go poly.
that decides it: travis bickle needed a dump truck.
Um...
/me trying to think which businesses on 6th would need 20 tons of dirt.
Oh so many bad puns could be said about this.
Must Refrain!
I guess trucks and buses hae porn shops in that neighborhood.
and by hae I mean hate
I think the fetish in question is skat. As in; "That is a pornairific dump!"
By the by, icon creation around here is very high end.
