    “C'mon with this guy @ Pier 39 in SF! Also being called "Sir Chungus Maximus" online and apparently being recruited by the 49ers. Funny.”

    “My sister lives in the Bay Area and I go here every time I visit. It’s a tourist trap and I know there are a million things to see in SF but I really just love watching them all piled on each other. I hope I come back a smelly sea lion in a pile with my friends! This time there was a little baby taking a nap. Apparently there was a massive one named chonkers that became a celebrity and is missing. If you have kids you can walk around and get tiny little cinnamon sugar fried donuts and ride a carousel but most importantly watch sea lions existing on various planks”
