Muni has teamed up with X-tian wackos in promoting Judgment Day, also known as The Rapture. It is due to occur next month.
Mark your calendars, everyone.
Your place to share stories on and off the bus.

We found this genius drinking game over at A Streetcar Named Taraval:
Take a shot:
• You get short turned (two if it’s before sunset ave or 10+ blocks from home)
•An exotic animal is on the ride
•Your L somehow turns into an M between Church and CastroSip your beer when:
•Fare evaders hop on
•Kid tagging the inside of the bus
•The vehicle has that fresh San Francisco urine/weed aroma
•Hipster dude hits you in the face with his brand new chrome bag (take another sip if he has an ironic mustache or hat. And another if he has a dumb looking tattoo)
We’d add a drink for every time a yeller gets on and addresses the entire bus. And when someone’s bulbous balls — literally or figuratively — make them spread out, at-home style, into your space.
Read on at A Streetcar Called Taraval.

We’ve featured fashionable Muni riders in the past, including some terrific photos of the fashion tribes of San Francisco. Is your line the best or worst dressed? Tell us about the fashionable people on your bus, or those who might deserve wrath from Joan Rivers.
Not to be outdone by IsMuniSlowToday.com, mysterious local internetians have taken HowFuckedIsMuni.com online.
Sleek graphics, seamless interface, advanced functionality … qualities that would work well in a public transportation system, right?
I decided to test out my two alternative routes to work:
The 14-Mission: The 14 is not particularly fucked.
The 49-Van Ness: The 49 is not particularly fucked.
Hey, at least I’m armed with that knowledge …
Try out How Fucked Is Muni now!

In a late-Thursday news conference, SFMTA Director Nat Ford, for months under suspicion of wanting out of the beleaguered agency, abruptly announced his resignation. Ford indicated that he’s going to consider a run for San Francisco mayor this November. Meanwhile, sources at City Hall tells us that Ford has been tapped to star in his own reality show about public transportation on the History Channel. The working title of the show is “It’s a Nat, Nat World,” according to sources close to the project.
We’ll bring you more details as we discover them …
It’s no secret that we at Muni Diaries love animals. So naturally it caught our eye (and heartstrings) to see @pickupabook post the photo above and tweet about the “Prettiest thing I’ve seen on the Muni… Handsome Montana man excluded.” Makes us wonder what Handsome Montana man looks like.
Here are some more of our favorite Muni tweets of the past week:
