Muni Haiku Battle Showdown this Saturday!

This Saturday marks the return of our Muni haiku battle between reigning champion Jesse James and first-time challenger Ed Casey of @BARTDiaries. Will Ed’s 17 syllables include the material from naked twerking on BART? We can only hope.

Here’s a video from the last Muni haiku battle, where two-time champion James Nestor battled Jesse in a very close fight.

See the battle go down this Saturday, April 5, at Muni Diaries Live at the Elbo Room! Get your advanced tickets.

Muni Haiku Battle is a spawn of Tourettes Without Regrets. If you haven’t seen Tourettes, you gotta go!

Muni: Source of a thousand laughs on a weekly basis

For something that often really, really sucks, Muni is such a great source of comedy. Tragic comedy, to be sure.

  • Lady across from me apparently never taught to sit properly in a skirt. Every time I look up I get panty flashed. #munidiaries
  • Did I just watch this fool toot some blow on the bus?!! #SFMuni #smh #ppltoday
  • OMG #sfmuni smells like someone took toejam, shoved it in their ass, scraped it out, vomited on it, spread it on the bus [ed note: oddly and amazingly specific!]
  • dude just popped open a huge bottle of wine and took the longest drink from it!! That’s one way to take the J! #HumpDayFun
  • “He only has two teeth left. It’s not really fair to knock out his only remaining teeth” – on #sfmuni just now

This week’s hilarity sprung forth from the great minds of @goldfine, @RGB_SINCE1981, @ProgressingSF, @SuperDee75, and @Brocheh. Don’t be stingy: Share your Muni giggles over at @munidiaries.

Join your fellow Muni riders for a night of stories that can only happen on Muni! Muni Diaries Live is back next Saturday, April 5. Get advance tickets today!

It’s 2014, and we’re riding Muni, y’all

Here are some examples of the whacky shit we all face day in, day out on Muni.

  • A couple took from Forest Hill to Van Ness to pick an Instagram filter. #sfmuni
  • Only on #sfmuni would you hear someone trying to buy drugs by offering to trade-in for some grapes.
  • Is being told I look like your “beautiful” prostitute ex girlfriend really supposed to be a compliment?
  • Just watched an empty Corona bottle get off this bus by itself.
  • The theme of today’s #sfmuni ride is ” every one smells like they have a poopy diaper! EVERYONE!” #washyourass
  • There’s nothing more humiliating than running after a #sfmuni as your pants fall down only for the doors to close on you.
  • #sfmuni drunk man asks tourist if daughter is wife. Drunk man forgets, repeats question. And forgets, again.

Careful out there, you guys. And have a great weekend!

Last week, we learned that “#sfmuni” and “#muni” were the two most popular hashtags around here. I recently went through the @munidiaries archives, and discovered that you guys’ favorite Muni topic was—surprise!—what it smells like.

To honor you, Muni’s smell-reporting set, we bring you the week in Muni smells.

  • This guy next to me smells like hella fresh laundry.
  • On the #njudah playing “guess the source of the smell”
  • SOS I’m drowning in Axe Body Spray fumes. 🙁 #SFMuni
  • There is so much cologne on this train I may throw up. #sfmuni

#munismells, anyone?

This week’s roundup brought to you @faithy, @privildeged, @ImekaSF, and @hollyleach. Contribute your Muni stories, smells or other, to @munidiaries. You won’t be sorry.
