Another New Year’s Eve has come and gone, and we all seem to have escaped largely unscathed. How was your Muni experience Wednesday evening? Here’s what some of your fellow Muni riders had to report:

  • OH: I confuse Narnia and The Odyssey. I really love #sfmuni on NYE.
  • Two old ladies are caroling on the bus #sfmuni
  • This dude got off the muni to puke then got right back on LOL
  • OH on #SFMuni: “I love Justin Bieber.” “Will you still love him after his balls drop?” “You’ve crossed the line.”

This week’s Things on Muni is brought to you by fellow Muni riders @heidi, @Fratterfield, @aicelanne, and @schwalove. Share the LOLs here: @munidiaries.

Earlier this week, we posted your top Muni rider pet peeves. That was, of course, merely a snapshot in time.

Without further ado, here are this week’s instances of disturbing and head-shaking behavior on Muni:

First, an oldie but annoying-ie
Dude has his phone on speaker, but still has his phone to his head. #Muni #L2cellphone — @DaneYoshida

Next, we move on to flat-out gross
dude blew his nose in his bare hands and proceeded to wipe them on his jacket sleeves #munidiaries — @LimLam8

Then onto these charming fellow riders
Homeboy: I have a cold, allergies, and I’m high as a kite on NyQuil, but I can STILL smell your cologne. #sfmuni — @MissNatMoore

And onto positively SMH behavior
Woman w/cane berates woman w/baby for sitting in handicap seat. On one hand ok but on the other really? #munidiaries — @ckueda

Lastly, the rainy day #dickmove, indeed
Your umbrella doesn’t need its own seat. #dickmove instagram.com/p/wzFSzWtp3Z/ — @spiegelmama

Remember #lifebeforethestorm? Yeah, I didn’t think you would. There was this thing called no rain. It was strange and wonderful. Somehow, we all survived it.

But enough reminiscing. Onward to the most remarkable Muni moments of the week!

  • According to these baby hipsters, weighing 140lbs is chunky. Acceptable weight is 95lbs. #sfmuni
  • Overheard on #muni “Your hiney is breathtaking”
  • Two elderly gentlemen arguing over who is older to win a seat.
  • I love this #sfmuni driver he’s whistling “I lost my poor meatball”
  • “Nothing comes to a sleeper but a dream” -Dude on the F Line, thinking he found some money on the streetcar #MuniDiaries

Listen to Klee Wiggins at Muni Diaries Live: ‘I wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for Muni’

You know how sometimes you just stumble upon greatness unintentionally? That happened to us when we were planning last month’s Muni Diaries Live.

One rando day I saw someone post a Throwback Thursday photo of herself and her dad, decked out as he was in an honest-to-goodness Muni operator uniform. I followed the breadcrumb trail to Klee Wiggins, daughter of a Muni bus driver.

Fast forward to that night in November at the Elbo Room, when we were all treated to 12 minutes of delightful and hilarious and touching stories of growing up in a Muni family.

Check out Klee’s performance at Muni Diaries Live.
