Your place to share stories on and off the bus.
Maybe dude is just deep in thought? Either way, thanks to Andrew for capturing this moment and sending it to the Muni Diaries Facebook page: “I’d just like to point out that this man’s pants perfectly match the seats… it made me smile. have a lovely day, humans!”
LOL, but it’s true, and you know it. To celebrate/lament, we’ve slashed prices on Muni T-shirts and Fast Pass wallets at the Muni Diaries Etsy store.
Go on, have a look-see. “Long live Fast Pass” shirts, designed by the one and only Nate at New Skool, are now $16. Wallets/Clipper Card disguises that have actual paper Fast Passes sewn into them, made with loving care by Heather, are now $10. And Clipper Card holders with Nate’s Fast Pass design are now $8.
Go to the Muni Diaries Etsy store, and get ’em while they’re hot!

So often, Muni provides more entertainment than what’s on TV or at the movies. Maybe not video games, but that’s beside the point.
Karen came up with a brilliant (literally!) idea:
Story idea: Update of 12 Angry Men, set on an express bus. Commuter/jurors try to solve puzzle of who dealt it. @munidiaries

Underground Muni stations have personality. I like to imagine what each station was like when it opened when I roll through Forest Hill, Castro, Church, and the others.
Over at Muniverse, Jamison posts photos of Forest Hill Station, then, then, and now. Neato.
Check out the entire post over at Muniverse. And buy the nifty Muni app of the same name while you’re there!
