I actually had a good time checking out the castro. It's a pretty cool neighborhood

I can't imagine 5 days in San Fran. It's a cool city, but we did 3 and did everything and were glad to leave.
Did Napa for a day and night and down to pebble beach for a day.

Schomas is ok--I recommend going across the golden gate to saucilleto. Great shops, bars, and restaurants.
Regarding tours--we were signed up and ready and after being herded around and made to stand in line while waiting for the filthy bus to arrive we decided that driving our rental car around and doing our own tour on our own time would be much better. It was. When you take a tour, you're on the tour schedule. I like my own schedule.

Your opinion pisses me off. Not even sure what else to say.

I was there for 3 weeks this summer and didn't scratch the surface of things to do.

Shocker!
You prolly spent all three days at the museum in GGP, amirite?
You could eat at a different fabulous restaurant every day for a year.

Was there a year ago. Went to several places recommended by posters on this board. They were all very good. Here are a few that I liked:
Yank Sing for dim sum
Thanh Long for garlic noodles and roast crab
Zushi Puzzle for omakase sushi
Perbacco for Italian
SPQR for Italian
Aziza for Moroccan (lamb shank was really good)
Enjoy your time there. A great city for dining.

Of course not! He also went to pier 39, rode on a trolley, and went to dragons gate.

Wow. We stayed five days and i feel like we flew in and flew out and barely saw anything. It was a fast paced blur. Day at muir woods/sausilito, day at the wharf and alcatraz with lunch in chinatown, day in pacifica and PCH to half moon bay. There was so much I didn't get to see :(

So you got focaccia warm from the oven at Liguria Bakery on Stockton in North Beach, followed up by an espresso at Graffeo's on Columbus, followed by a climb up the hill to admire the view from Coit Tower? The wild parrots put up a racket in eucalyptus trees during the early evening.
And you walked the coastal trail from Mile End beach all the way past the ruins of the Sutro baths, past the seal rocks up to Cliff House, where you can have a drink while watching the sun set into the Pacific?
I guess you rode your bike across the Golden Gate into Sausalito, then took the ferry back across the Bay on a day when the Ferry Building farmer's market was in full swing?
The idea that San Francisco can be "done" in 3 or 5 days is the product of an extremely narrow viewpoint, or an unwillingness to actually *go* outside.

You haven't lived until you've drank a couple bottles of wine with your SO watching the model sailboat races on Spreckels lake in Golden Gate park.
San Francisco, like most great cities really comes alive when you slow down to take it all in...it's like being in a forest, replete with old Chinese men driving RC sailboats bitching their arse off in native tongue about someone's illegal maneuver. Probably not something you should seek out on a few day trip, but priceless none the less.
ETA: drink rec...Tommy's Mexican Restaurant down Geary, after hiking around Land's End...definitely not before, to get their version of margaritas. It's a really fun place to get pie-eyed off tequila.

Yeah....but the food is awful

Oh jeez, you don't have to tell me. My wife loves the tacos (they deep fry the whole thing with meat in it). I think it's repulsive, especially for SF. I mentioned for drink...it's a bar to me.
Another bar I loved was The Bitter End. Their mixed grill brunch plate was/is insane.
