SAN FRANCISCO (KCBS) -- The KCBS newsroom received calls Friday afternoon reporting an unusual and unpleasant smell in San Francisco.
Most of the callers reporting the odor were in the city's Sunset and Richmond districts.
A city spokesman said the sewage treatment plant didn't report having any problems and that everything appeared to be functioning normally.
A Public Utilities Commission spokesman did say that he smelled something unusual in the Civic Center area.
The stench could also be smelled for a time in the financial district.
In related news, most showers and bath tubs in SF reported to be out of order and unused for years...
The odor of a rotting city...
the 49ers are back in town for a pre-season game
Butsecks?
Is it the combination of body odor, patchouli, marijuana smoke and urine? That would make sense.
When I was in S.F. last year I was overwhelmed at the number of dope smoking slackers and homeless cretins milling about. Their combined stench is as described above.

Could it be a divine plague?

Nancy Poot-losi in town?
"A Public Utilities Commission spokesman did say that he smelled something unusual in the Civic Center area."
It couldn't possibly be people sleeping in their own urine and feces. (San Francisco has such a clean transit station near the Civic Center.)
The whole city smells like a toilet that hasn't been cleaned in decades...
Swamp ass swamp gas.
Oh, the release of gases from underground prior to a quake? Let's hope all the decent or innocent folks take heed and leave before that pit of slime slides into the sea!
Nancy must have returned home with Bawney Frank in tow.
for Nancy's annual douche!
The Frisco crowd deserves the smell and Nancy.
Was that really necessary?
In the future, before you post, I suggest you ask yourself this question: Is this comment in such poor taste that even Jeff Chandler might think twice about posting it?
Sorry if I ruffled you. Considering Nancy Pelosi is an affront to all FReepers, I did not think my comment would be in bad taste.
However, if I offended you, I apologize. It was not in intent.
I use one overriding qualification in my comments, if it make me chuckle...
I use it!
Hey, I am...
the same way!
Gadzooks! I may...
have to rethink my position!
Bringing up Nancy Pelosi in any context is in bad taste.
