Toto wears a tutu on Muni
I mean, what is your dog wearing out of the house today?
Via Muni rider cceres: “Friday morning commuting cuteness.”
Fabulous Lady Travels Through Time on Muni
Muni rider betsywanders snapped a photo of this impeccably dressed woman riding Muni to what I can only assume is another time and place, where steam-powered locomotives take you from Point A to Point B, and horse-led buggies roam the streets.
Join your fellow Muni riders for a night of stories that can only happen on Muni! Muni Diaries Live is back on Saturday, April 5. Tickets.

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!

Cute kid on Muni warms all of the cockles of all of the hearts
Muni rider Joe says, “The cutest Muni rider. Ever.”
This one’s up there, it’s true, Joe. But let’s not forget Batkid’s Muni-riding assistants, a patty-cake-worthy chatty Cathy on the 17, or raw, unfiltered exposure to San Francisco from the under-two perspective.
If that’s not incentive to raise your kids in the city, I’m not sure what is. Parents: Do you love Muni Live with your kids in tow, or do you hate it?
