*Note that I don’t have much to say about this. I don’t get cats. Like, not at all. And the MD ladies are otherwise occupied, or you’d get some real editorial flavor here.
Meanwhile, there’s a cat sitting in a chair in the Montgomery Station playing music. Or, as @uppityfag frames it, “Easy listening, guitar playing hobo #kitty in Montgomery station.”

Thought Catalog organized the types of people you hate on Muni into five neat categories. Agree or disagree?
1. Screaming Child
2. Person Who Won’t Let You Exit
3. The Person Who Takes Up More Than One Seat With All Of Their Belongings. (Especially not on the handicap seat, like this violator, right?)
4. The Person Who Is Obnoxiously Sleeping. (Like this sleeping BART guy who is also violating #3?)
5. The Person Listening to Music.
Wait a minute, there’s nothing about terrible B.O. on transit?
See all the reasons why these five types made it on the list over at Thought Catalog. If you’re really into lists, check out 16 more types of annoying commuters.
