Your place to share stories on and off the bus.
You know how it is. You get out of work or leave the house late, and you have to put your face on in transit. A personal favorite is one-handed penciling of your bottom lids (you know what I’m talking about).
We’ve seen pretty serious Caboodles on the bus before, and one lady on the 5-Fulton apparently does it every damn day. But this phenomenon reaches new, perfectly lined heights on the K-Ingleside, via My Muni on Tumblr.

So you’ve seen that story going around about the “25 Things I Wish I Knew Before Moving to San Francisco,” right? The story names three things to know about Muni:

2) Half of the buses require you to step down into the steps to get the back door to open.
3) Chinatown is a bottleneck on any route going through it
I’m sure you have a lot more Muni truths to share. Also true: our city makes for some gorgeous pictures, especially in black and white.

Over the years, we’ve seen and heard about balloon animal-makers, sketch artists, pole dancers, musicians, and make-up appliers. We’re never seen or heard about jugglers*. Not until now, that is.
Via @josephpwilson: “Just a normal two car outbound N-Judah with a juggler on Friday.”
* A little hard to see in the photo above, but look closely at the fella with the hat on the right side.
