From the Driver’s Seat: Shake What Your Mama Gave Ya
If you think as riders we see a lot of antics, wait until you read about what Eze witnesses every day, like these silly antics from some female passengers:
8:03PM Inbound
I get to La Salle and load up one passenger that was at the bus stop. As I’m closing the door I see about 6-7 girls running from down the block to get on the bus. I leave the bus door open because I’m not gonna roll up and pick them up. They can run to the bus since I know most of them will ask for a ride so they can earn this ride by running to it. So I load them up and 3 more are still running up and I wait. I mess with them and close the door and the look on their face is hilarious. So I open up the door and they get on.
Their conversation goes something along the lines of boys, one of the girls had a birthday that day, jeans/blouses/underwear, and alcohol. As they get off the bus they pass in front of me and one of the girls says something to another and right in front of the bus she starts booty shaking hahahaha all of the girls are laughing, and I’m laughing too. It’s hilarious because it was so random. I close the doors and take off laughing.

International Public Transit Rules

Everyone seems to stand on the right side of the escalator even though the city’s transit authority had stopped encouraging standing on right hand side some time ago. I saw a sign encouraging riders to hold on tight to the escalator handrails: “The handrails have been sanitized regularly.” Hmm.
I thought about unspoken rules on Muni:
– Move back.
– Watch your backpack so you don’t hit people in the face.
– Step down to exit and yell “Backdoor!” for the uninitiated.
What else?
Your chance to own a Muni-form!
And OMG, it took all my strength to resist buying this, and instead, passing it along to you. I love you that much, mkay?
Imagining Muni as Mainframe

Don Asmussen, SFGate’s Bad Reporter, recently spun quite the imaginative yarn: Muni: Legacy. In it, Asmussen tells of heroic feats, mysterious disappearances, Clipper fails, and, finally, victory? It’s accompanied by some nifty imagery, also.

For all those times Muni told us, ‘Eat me!’
Mango, avocado, hamachi, and the most plentiful, reddest tobiko ever. You have to be OK with tobiko to like this one.
After this post on edible Muni (still gross, and still not what you think), we decided that trying something called a Muni Roll was within the call of duty. We were fully aware that it could come 30 minutes late or not at all, and we braced ourselves for three in a row to show up after we decided to eat something else, instead. Your comments from the previous post still make us laugh.
But, none of those things happened, thankfully. Just a good old-fashioned sushi dinner like the pilgrims had. Give this one a whirl at Crazy Sushi on 16th Street and Guerrero.
