You thought your Muni ride was entertaining? Here’s what Nat saw …

The other day I get on the J at around 7PM on a Tuesday, and notice that half of the front car is nearly completely empty, save for a single, very large man and several boxes of bananas. As I board and get a closer look, I realize that this man is in fact wearing an oversized rainbow-colored quilt, and literally has maracas woven into his long, dreadlocked hair. He is also wearing thick sunglasses, despite it being quite dark outside, and has very little to speak of in the way of pants.

Five Muni moments this week

Here are five noteworthy things that happened on Muni this week:

A man bothered to stand up before peeing on the bus. How polite!? A Chewbacca-wielding gentleman hits on fellow passenger. Because, San Francisco. The entire cast of Abercrombie and Fitch, the Movie boarded a Muni Metro train. Random girl wondered whether drug tests are required to take the California bar exam. They should be!? And finally, Rosanna is wondering whether not spilling her morning coffee was worth it, after failing to come up with a reason to talk to the cute guy next to her on Muni.

“I am the owner of Muni!”

Brandon wrote his diary while the action was taking place on the bus. He even updated it for you! Check it out:

Woman just got on the bus and yelled at the bus driver because he asked her to pay. She yelled, “You don’t recognize me?! I am the owner of Muni! If you don’t recognize me you shouldn’t be working at my company!”

She actually looks very well put together so I’m not sure whether she’s crazy or is actually the owner of Muni.

Update: She is now yelling at him accusing him of very specific things (he’s been fired 18 times, he transports babies to Mexico) and telling him her attorneys will contact him by tomorrow.

Public transportation is cool.

Yes, it is. Drop your Muni story in our submission box.

Fill in the Blank: Occupy Something

Has enough time passed by now that “Occupy” protest signs are kind of retro? Probably not. But loritalove found this on a Muni stop and I thought, hey, haven’t seen one of those in a while.
