    I sure wish I could afford to live in San Francisco — smart people, free-thinking, marvelously accepting, and clever, clever, clever!

    Ummm, of course it’s fucking “shopped”… no picture should hit the internet without hitting photoshop for at least a few minutes

    another person; and that this activity took place in a train!
    Also I noticed that only one person was using the swing at any time!

    i wish i were there!
