Strange triangular moving lights over San Francisco

My boyfriend and i were outside smoking some cigarettes and looking at the sky. In the city there are a lot of lights which contribute to light pollution and not being able to see the sky the way you would in more rural areas. However looking at the sky you can tell the difference between helicopters, planes, and stars.

The lights we were seeing in the sky were neither a helicopter or a plane because it was too high and moved in strange patters with triangularly faint whitish blue lights, and the movement ruled out stars, as well as the light being perceived acted differently than a star would.

The lights would flicker or get duller and move quickly or slow down in strange patterns. We perceived maybe around three in the ten or fifteen minutes we were outside.
