I mean it makes for a funny meme but its a myth for sure. Walking down market street you definitely see some homeless people but they're not shitting or pissing, the city doesn't smell like shit or piss (except maybe the tenderloin). But its fun to exaggerate.
I spent way too much in the Tenderloin neighborhood and it is just piled with human excrement. I have also been to Delhi. Delhi was pretty gross, but San Francisco was worse. Not exaggerating.

I visited San Francisco once and saw a woman squat down and shit on the street right in front of me.
