With the exception of a few off-Strip bars and clubs, bathrooms in this town are largely kept clean and devoid of Sharpie-d words to ponder while on the pot. Not so the case in San Diego. This past weekend, visits to a handful of So-Cal bars yielded a whole range of inconsequential quotes on everything from reality to failed relationships to the essence of man.
