A Selection Of Profanity-Laced Bay Bridge Tweets

So far so good for the first day of the Bay Bridge's five-day closure. But how are people adjusting to the reality of no Bay Bridge today? We turned to the twitters to find out.

People were instantly nostalgic about saying goodbye to the old bridge span (and, of course, to the wrong side of it).

Wait...it just hit me...no more eastern span of #BayBridge. How'd I forget to do one last crossing?!?

If you're driving over the bay bridge, don't forget to wave her good bye, she's had troubles but also been a good friend. Good bye my dear.

Despite incessant warnings, some people still managed to forget that the bridge was going to be closed today.

Shit! Why is the bridge closed? Did I miss something in the #bayarea #BayBridge @sal_castaneda

Transit-related updates ranged were a mixed bag.

Anyone else enjoying the stunned looks from first-time single car drivers piling into BART cars? Come in, the water is warm #BayBridge

Some people felt to need to defend their own personal bridges from encroachment:
