Your place to share stories on and off the bus.
Friend of Muni Diaries Faern saw this nice young couple carting yet more strange Muni cargo—a mattress that looks like it came straight out of someone’s bedroom, with the mattress pad and everything.
I mean, it’s no stranger than a giraffe leg or blow up doll, both witnessed by riders like you, and documented in our treasure chest of Strange Cargo on Muni.
Weirdness on your commute today? We’re all ears @munidiaries!

We heard about a skateboarder making the most impressive exit on Muni yet. Via @robertranting:

God, I wish I were that cool. Double points if his skateboard looks like this.
Muni rider Fionna asks, “creative usage of a $5 bill?” We answer, “sure, why not?”

Between you and me: I can’t wait to get old and just let it all hang out, act as weird as I want to be. You know, floss at the dinner table, tell the kids to get off my lawn, that kind of thing. But some people aren’t waiting to get old to be weird. Here are four of them, spotted on Muni this week.
1. Guy on the N is waving his hands at me like he’s putting a spell on me. I shouldn’t be worried, right? Right? – @e_gadd
2. Dude on #38 alternating between singing 80s hits and quoting the Bible ALOUD. Like a battle of God vs. Cindy Lauper – @loveoz13

This guy’s hair is epic and awesome, proving that everything from the 1980s is gold again. Photo by @LifeEsBelle_Ash.
By the way, acid-wash denim shorts overalls are also back in fashion. If scrunchies come back, I am filing a complaint with the authorities.
Maybe dude is just deep in thought? Either way, thanks to Andrew for capturing this moment and sending it to the Muni Diaries Facebook page: “I’d just like to point out that this man’s pants perfectly match the seats… it made me smile. have a lovely day, humans!”
