This morning Dear Mom was offering bagels via Wesburger that were overnighted from New York. A lot of people wanted them.
I guess we won't have brunch at @dearmomsf today. Also I need to buy an umbrella. http://t.co/2w4WnutKZ8 pic.twitter.com/mg8Wb1xkgf

The line, almost to Folsom from Harrison, was just informed that if they're outside the building; they won't get #bagels.

UPDATE: Here they are, everybody. Yeah, I guess we’re so used to overpaying for gimmicky food that we might as well also wait in line in the rain for it. I’m being serious. I waited in line for 18 hours to see Star Wars Episode 1, even though I didn’t like the first ones and happily slept through it. Waiting in line with all the crazy fanatics, hearing their stories, playing with light sabers, that was the real fun of it.
This is what everyone waited for.

Sooo.. Waiting in line for day-old bagels?
Ten dollar day old bagels!
The price to pay for that sweet, sweet authenticity. They’re from New York, you know – the ONLY source for bagels, pizza, and savoir faire. Now you know what a bagel should REALLY taste like. Not that different? Pfft! Philistine! No, you can’t have your money back.
this is the appropriate layer of snark to react to this story
You placed a hammer on the head of the nail, and then hit that hammer with a far larger hammer. Well done.
Bagels were overnighted from NYC so that they can be topped with kale and avocados?
These are the same rubes who lined up for $chmendricks short lived, barely passable dough balls.
I agree, toasting a real bagel is a sacrilege let alone making into an entree.
Why would any sane person wait in line hours or even days for food, beer, phones or shoes? Especially in shitty weather.
Concur.
