Muni shopping list: butt pillows

butt_pillows

This proves so many theories: 1) Not everyone uses smartphones to do everything; 2) Muni is there to serve (see #1); 3) We all lose things from time to time, and 4) #3 really sucks.

Losing shopping lists especially sucks when you’re in need of butt pillows.

When Muni makes us happy

things8

Whether it’s animals, on-time buses, good music, or people flying their freak flags, it *is* possible for Muni to bring smiles to our faces.

  • First bus arrived in one minute. Transfer bus in three minutes. I’m rocking #Muni on a Sunday schedule.
  • Everyone was arguing on this #SFMuni train when suddenly a guy got on with an Iguana and everyone got happy again.
  • Young man carrying the bottom half of a female mannequin on Muni #wtf #noneedtoknow
  • Op! Go Your Own Way comes thru on the Fleetwood Mac shuffle! Head-bop has been deployed. #bopping #SFMuni
  • He smiled. I smiled. He got off, I kept going. 🚌 #sfmuni

This week’s Things on Muni is brought to you by fellow Muni riders @cynthia_says, @salmattos, @laurakayw, @louisemccune, and @anajulia94. Pitch in today over at the Muni Diaries Twitter feed.

Guy ‘blows’ attempt to be courteous on Muni

snot_man

We’re not always treated to a one-two rudeness punch, but there are some very special Muni riders out there.

Rider Mark, intrepid reporter in the field, says, “On the 9L [recently]…this guy blew his nose into his hand and smeared it all over that blue emergency seat. Then he moved across the aisle and told some lady to sit over there.”

Well, then. Regular rider-readers will know how protective people are of the smells-like-Christmas-morning seats on new Muni buses. Still others will know that you’re damned if you do and damned if you don’t sometimes when it comes to public nose-blowing.

We’ll side with polite nose-blowing, given the apparent alternative.

Dhaya and some other funny ladies will dish out the laughs tomorrow night at Oakland’s XOXO Nightclub. You should totally go and laugh so hard you cry and cough stuff up.
