Matt got it all down:

A nicely dressed 40-something woman is riding Muni talking into her phone.

“Listen, I’m trying to move blocks around and schedule meetings.”

[…] <— that means she's listening to words I can't hear, because that's how phones work. "Just how much coffee have you had?" […] "Just what exactly are you seeing?" […] "Listen, I'm trying to win us a vacation to Greece and Taiwan. Honey, I'm going to get us on that boat. Greece… and Taiwan!” Read more

What happened on Muni this week? Kai the chocolatier rode the 22-Fillmore with a backpack full of 15 pounds of cooked bacon, which made the bus smell like bacon. In related delicious smells, a woman’s bag broke on the 1-California, and a bottle of maple syrup shattered on the floor. Elsewhere, Sara was reading a textbook for her Emerging Diseases class while riding Muni and diagnosed some likely cases around her. “I like your haircut, but you should dye it,” a stranger said to an unassuming woman with a salt and pepper pixie cut.

And finally, here’s a song relating to an important Muni etiquette:
“Close, close, close your legs/when you ride the bus/Verily, verily, verily, verily/your junk can’t be THAT large.”

This week’s Muni moments are from @noshthis, @bozzygoestowork, @happysara89, @dewright07, and @CAwkward.
