@xxriabellaxx: A woman prevented a theft on 38L this morn. Thief called her a bitch b4 exiting. Bitch > thief. #100MuniStories
We in the Bay Area call that moted (alternately, moded).
There is still plenty of theft on Muni buses, but we’re proud to say that Muni riders have a way of helping one another out. In January, for example, Rachel thwarted an iPhone theft on this very same line.
You, too, could be featured in our 100 Days, 100 Muni Stories drive. Celebrate 100 years of Muni by telling us your story today. Email works or tweet to @munidiaries, hashtag #100MuniStories.

“True facts, muni am riders are significantly hotter then (sic) pm #whendothehotonesleavework?!”
What do you think? Are there more hotties in the morning, afternoon, evening, or “late-night special”?
@MyDearAuntSally tagged her tweet #100MuniStories, entering it in our 100 Days, 100 Muni Stories contest. The best Muni quips will end up in bus ads later this year. Celebrate Muni’s centennial by sending us your best Muni stories, or tagging your tweets #100MuniStories.

@SheenaWakely: I noticed a guy on 31BX. 6 mo. later we met at the stop and have been together ever since. True love on Muni. Imagine that!
We sure can, and do. And, along with @SheenaWakely, we can prove it happens. Jen and Kevin met on the 1-California and had a Muni-themed wedding. A lost wallet sparked romance on the 33-Stanyan, another one of our 100 Days commemorative stories. We’re not only counting romantical love, either; hell yes to the please love back signs, imploring us all to spread you know what (NOT THAT).
Read the rest of our 100 Days, 100 Muni Stories entries, and send us your own Muni story today. Use the Muni Diaries submission form or tweet @munidiaries with hashtag #100MuniStories.

Some people sing on Muni. Some Muni drivers sing on Muni. Many are annoyed by this. Not Josiah.
@josiahq: Dude singing MJ on the 71L. Monday #winning thus far.
Don’t stop ’til you get enough, Josiah.
Submit your 100 Days, 100 Muni Stories to commemorate Muni’s centennial this year. The four best will be included in ads on every single Muni bus later this year.
Behold the coolest PR stunts you’ll ever see for a movie.
In connection with the Clean Socks Documentary Project, a film about the Mongolian art form of contortion, these folks sampled their bendiest moves at Powell Street Station recently.
You, too, will be amazed by these contortionists “getting [their] socks very dirty for a clean socks project.” Contribute to the Clean Socks Project Kickstarter if you love what you see.
