Or, in @Peter_Hartikka‘s case:
The one time in my life I notice a hot guy on #SFMuni checking me out, and I have a cold sore the size of Nebraska. #fml

We hope you’re doing better, Peter!
As evidenced by @tweetsupa:

Such brutality!
I hate to be the one to say this isn’t a real transit ad, but this isn’t a real transit ad. It should be, yes, but it’s not.
Patricia called our attention to these brutally honest parody ads via Happy Place. The ads explain how you can easily not be an asshole on Down Undah’s Queensland Rail. They’re meant to mock the exceedingly polite — and accidentally passive-aggressive, right? — Queensland Rail etiquette tips. Have a look at what Happy Place describes as, “…five examples that much more closely resemble our subway experiences, plus or minus a few breast-gropers and/or gibberish-spouting homeless women.”
My favorite Bay Area transit etiquette rules: “Don’t give your giant Styrofoam its own seat on crowded trains,” “BART isn’t your living room, mister,” and “It’s impolite to take up extra bus seats and flip people off.”
What are yours?

Someone put googly eyes on emergency car stop button casing turning the forbidden red button into something much more hilarious. They also transformed the usual monotonous morning commute into a carload of passengers who briefly broke their silence and laughed together. Well played, witty vandal!
Well played indeed! Thanks, David!

To whit:
A woman standing next to me is having a conversation with the sandwich she's eating. God, i love public transit. #sfmuni

I think I speak for all of us when I ask, “What kind of sandwich?” and say, “Of course she was.” We love public transit, too.

A random stranger just tossed me this on CalTrain. “It’s just one of those days,” he says. I guess it will be. #ILoveSF
Why does this never happen to me? All I do is watch bros open cans of Bud Light on their way to the game. Come on, pay it forward!
