This is a snapshot of some street graffiti I encountered over this weekend stenciled on the sidewalk in the South of Market Street area of San Francisco.

So what exactly is better than cocaine? Sex? Who knows what they were talking about.

This photo was taken near some gritty apartment buildings and businesses in the South of Market area in San Francisco.

Usually one sees a lot of graffiti on walls and on the outside of various buildings. This was stenciled onto the sidewalk, which struck me as being quite different as you don't see graffiti like this very often. There were a few other messages stenciled alongside it, seemingly to complain about gentrification in the neighborhood.

Cheers.
