Don’t call it “DoPa”
by Andrew Dalton on September 28, 2009
The other day, the fine folks over at Mission Mission overheard (you know, via twitter) the ultimate San Francisco faux-pas: trying to create your own catchy abbreviation for your hyper-specific location. In this case the offending party mistakenly referred to Dolores Park as “DoPa”.
Nice try, bucko, but we’re laying claim over here to any and all “__Pa” abbreviations.
In related news:
- “SoPa” – Sopa is still something you order at a taqueria, not that park in SoMa with all the french cafes and homeless people.
- “FUPA” – you’re free to continue using this one.
