Your place to share stories on and off the bus.
Sure, Muni shows up in weddings, giving several big days that extra-special San Francisco touch.
But we had little in the genre of bachelorettes on Muni until rider Lynae stepped up to the plate with this. Wishing the bride-to-be cherished photos on that camera, the finest blurry memories, and a most delicious hangover breakfast.

From the sounds of these tweets, he’s either the actual World’s Most Interesting Man, or just your average dime store jerk. Who are we to decide?
First, Muni rider Shelby caught our eye:
There is a dude on the 28L with a Transformers movie logo tattooed on his forehead, talking about how he wants fake k9 teeth. @munidiaries

Then, friend of Muni Diaries, Katie, chimed in:

In connection with the city of killjoy’s nudity ban, this group tried to board the F-Market/Wharves over the weekend, specifically on quite possibly the jerkiest streetcar in the fleet.
Also, not one courtesy ass-towel among them? Gym rules apply, folks.

Because some adults need help chewing their food and tying their shoelaces, BART has put together this tutorial on how not to be an asshole.
A list of no-shit BART rules of thumb:
There you have it. Thanks, BART. Now we no longer have to deal with any of these transgressions ever again, right?
Did you think they were going to use TLC’s “No Scrubs” as the soundtrack, also? Because at first, I thought they might just use “No Scrubs” as the soundtrack.

Things that make you go “huh” and bonus Muni-operator kudos, via Muni rider Vicki:
“At about 10:30 am the other day, on the Outbound 6, at Haight and Buena Vista West: Delusional guy next to me is fondling a “tool” with a 12″ blade, caressing it lovingly for 10 minutes. The new driver, a woman and her trainer, a man, unbeknownst to me, had the whole thing totally handled. A motorcycle cop boarded and smoothly talked this disturbed guy off of the bus, without a problem. I think the bus # was 5417, not sure, but they were all on it! Kudos to that trainer who very coolly pretended to ignore the guy so as not to incite him.”
First of all, so rarely does “fondling,” “tool,” and “caressing” show up in the same submission without it meaning the other thing. And so rarely does anything with a 12-inch blade go well for anyone on a Muni bus. Well done, driver and trainer for spotting a potential problem before it became a real problem.
Hey, guess what, Vicki posted this on the Muni Diaries Facebook page. Aren’t you totally inspired to post your own story, whether it involves tool fondling or some other eyebrow-raising activity? Yeah, I am basically trying to get “tool fondling” into this post as much as possible because I’m 12 years old.
