Your place to share stories on and off the bus.
Let’s show a little love for the comma now and again, Muni. An em dash or semicolon are also, arguably, appropriate; but trying to add this comma via finger pad with any semblance of precision was tough enough.
Shouts to Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen’s Cupid’s Span photobombing this grammar moment.
Every once in a while, the universe gives you something really awesome, like a pet goat riding Muni. Can you spot the goat?
This Muni Diaries came from @jasonbraatz on Twitter, who says, “I’m on the 5-Fulton and there is seriously a goat on the bus.” Totally worth my $2.25 fare, don’t you think?
More animal kingdom on Muni over this way, please.

h/t @madmaxflapper for tweeting this side-eyes-inducing gem. Love me some creative signage (and resulting Brangelina-style mashups), but you can sure be a cheeky bastard, Muni.
Alex asks on Twitter: “What have I become? I just spent the last several hours making BART fan art.”
To which we answer: You’ve become our favorite person on the internet this week. Is the Muni map next?
@bartdiaries — and probably Bart Simpson — do not have a cow and approve this message.

Attention, everyone: We’ve found the most special man in San Francisco! You know how we know? Look at him here on Muni: his very special, large but delicate balls need — no, we should say deserve — their own space while he reads his very special book, probably pondering especially important thoughts that only he can conjure, because he is such a special unique snowflake. How dare you suggest that he should scoot over for someone else to sit down while he is doing such important work? His universe has no time for such pedestrian ideas like kindness and courtesy, so leave this special man be!
We found this latest manspreading offender courtesy of Muni rider Jack Lakeshore on the Muni Diaries Facebook page. If you find any other special people on Muni like this guy or this equal-opportunity womanspreader, holler at us #munidiaries.
Is that a banana in your hand or…OK, I’ll stop right there.
Whether it is LITERALLY a banana in his pocket or the oddly unsettling banana in the lap, the most phallic member of the berry family always sends our minds into the gutter when it shows up on Muni.
