McCafe Pushers on Segways: A Symbol of Economic Progress

McCafe Pimps seen coming from Capp St. at 17th

Yesterday afternoon, these five crappy-coffee pushers could be seen rolling down the length of Capp St. in their tricked-out Segways (peep those oversized off-roading tires; that’s how you know their seriousness knows no bounds).  At first, I figured they were completely unaware of where the centers of economic activity occur around these parts.  Then I realized the Capp St. corridor is the harbinger of Mission District economic progress.  Capp has 1.3 million dollar dream homes (one even has a carriage house for your collection of prize-winning mares complete with a special walk-thru featured in the Chronicle), an opening cupcake store, jaywalking has replaced prostitution has the street’s greatest crime, and crack prices are through the roof.  A rising tide lifts all boats.

I get it now, McDonalds.  I get it.
