“Cable car’s full.”
Three more people jump on.
“Guess full doesn’t really mean full.”
Wrong Car
Tourist:When will we get to Hyde?
Cable Car Driver:We won't.
Tourist:But when will we get to Hyde?
Cable Car Drive:We won't. This is Mason.
Tourist:But when will we get to Hyde?
Cable Car Drive:You're on the wrong cable car. It's four blocks over the hill.
Tourist:Oh.
“We didn’t even pack sweatshirts. And couldn’t figure out which would be cheaper - Saks Fifth Avenue and Neiman Marcus.”

Tourist:This is for the cable car, right? What's the difference between a cable car and a trolley?
Local:Depends, do you want the one that you hang out the side or the one that's closed and you sit inside?
Tourist:To hang out the side.
Local:Then not here. Go up the block and to the right.
Tourist:You sure? What are those - aren't those cables?
Local:That's for the bus.
Tourist:What's that? *pointing*
Local:A bus.
Tourist:Oh.
“I told you to save our seats. I can’t believe you didn’t save our seats.”
—Says the woman who went to the back of the cable car when about 30 people were getting on.
“All these people are cutting.”
—Says the woman waiting for the cable car a block up from the “actual” line.
“I’m trying to get to Haight street. H-a-i-g-h-t street,”
—he says to the bus driver.
