Whether it’s the guys rolling blunts in the back, the reek of their clothes or the guys offer to sell you some you’re sure to be a friend of Mary Janes by the end of the ride even if you are an asthmatic grannie.

Hardly Strictly Old

So, like, I was on the 71 Muni bus with my date Todd and this old lady gets on and stands in front of me cuz there’s no seats. So like I offered her mine. I said, “Do you want to sit down?” She was like, “I’m not that old.” Hella embarrassed! I had to giggle, I didn’t know what else to do. She was looking at her phone, then she said, “I’m laughing,” like, don’t worry about it.
…after a few stops some seats opened up and the old lady sat across from us. I mean I guess maybe I shouldn’t say old cuz she said she wasn’t but she had like hella gray hair and shit but she was wearing converse high-tops and purple tights and this kinda cool leather cuff with a picture of some chick stitched on it but I don’t know who it was.
Anyway, this kinda skeevy but kinda cool guy gets on and sits next to Todd and immediately starts asking people if they have a lighter. First the lady said no, then me and Todd. And then Todd says, “Oh, wait, I think I do.” He pulls this hella huge emergency kit out of his backpack and digs in and finds a lighter. The guy thanks him and lights up and pulls a puff off a glass pipe, trying to hide it behind Todd’s head! I couldn’t believe what was in this kit. Like, everything. I was dying, pulling everything out, Ace bandages, plastic syringes, everything! This kit weighed 10 pounds.
And then what happened was totally San Francisco and involves a flute of some kind, and a great photo of what transpired. Keep reading the story here.
Missed Connection at Muni Diaries Live

Caught each other’s gaze at Muni Diaries – w4m – 27 (mission district)
I arrived late and found a spot near stage left. I turned around to talk to my friends and our eyes met for what seemed like 3 or 4 seconds.
You: burly, bearded, and beflanneled. Me: dark hair, dark eyes, and dark clothes.
I’ve seen you around and would like to know more. Can I buy you a drink?
Reader Jim tipped us off to this Missed Connection ad, and I couldn’t be more delighted. Ok, the description of our Juliet is a little vague, but I can add that she has excellent taste in blogs and spoken word events, as does our Romeo.
Flannel Guy, won’t you write her back?
Oh, and invite us to the wedding. You’re welcome.
p.s. Check out this Muni missed connection note. Wonder whatever happened to those two lovebirds.

Eric’s Short Ode to the N-Judah

Before I get to the juicy details of who gets $50 from Google Places and Muni Diaries, take a second to check out Lee’s picture featured in this post. Pretty.
Today’s winning Google Places review goes to Eric, whose short ode to the N-Judah gets right to the point:
The N-Judah is one of the rare SF muni lines that offer fun games to play during your ride. In the mornings you can play “Try to find a seat that doesn’t have an sleeping elderly person next to you,” The evening commute also offers “Twister but with no support to grab on to but your neighbors ponytail. And can’t forget the late night game of “Stab wounds and lost wallets.”
Touche.
Eric wins $50 for his review, and you can too, by reviewing a Muni line on the SFMTA Google Places page. Our contest ends Sunday at 11:59 p.m. so get ready to write your review!
