I am also all for fun, but not when it involves filling up a train with shouting people just for the sake of filling up a train with shouting people. Where is a stabby bum when you need one?

i have to say i’m with sarah on this one. back when i was a student at state, when leaving for the day i’d have a big portfolio with me and would generally be exhausted from one or two 4hr studio courses i had just completed, and would just want to get home in peace and quiet. if this train rolled up on me, i’d be pretty pissed off, and probably wouldn’t even try to board. and considering the M trains are sometimes kind of sparse in the evening, i’d most likely be waiting another 15-30mins in the cold with all my crap. i know it’s “all in the spirit of good fun” and some folks would say “it’s just one train!”, but this isn’t what muni is intended for. i pay my fare so i can get from point A to point B, not to have all of my senses assaulted at once. i could almost wrap my brain around it if it were a demonstration or protest with a message, where as this is just annoying and pointless.

Wow. This is just pure obnoxiousness. So…these people “filled up the whole space” of a 2-car Muni train, so they could sing Journey songs and chant, “Muni! Muni!”? Why? So that they could be obnoxious and annoying and make it difficult for M riders who might want to relax on the way to their destination? Were people passed up at destinations because the cars were too full to accommodate others who were waiting for an M train? Fine if you need attention so bad that you chant and yell outside on the way to a party, but to do that in an enclosed space where those who need to board the train are forced to endure your literal cries for attention is douchebaggery at its douchiest.
