Time to Sport Those Leopard-Printed Undies

Leave a comment

Update: Please send in pictures and stories if you participate or witness the ride tomorrow.

Original post: This one is totally up my alley. Tomorrow, Saturday, Jan. 10, is the 8th annual “no pants” subway day. If you’re like me and keep your fashion gems hidden under antiquated garb, then tomorrow is your day to expose (literally) your fashion prowess. Show off your cool undies and socks while going totally pantless without a hint of guilt.

Brave partakers rendezvous at Dalva in the Mission at 2 p.m., then head to the 16th Street BART at 2:30 p.m. and ride around for what will surely be a crowd-arousing event. You’ll get off at Embarcadero, take the N, and finish the revelry in the Castro.

Bullet hole on the J-Church

Leave a comment

This arrived in the ol’ email bag this evening from Devin:

Muni incident

I’m not clear exactly what happened, but I was on the second of two outbound J trains when something went on aboard the first. Our driver tried to explain in his very limited English that we were “blocked” and there were “police.” SFPD was all over the first train, now largely free of passengers, and it had what looked (from a distance) like a bullet hole in one window. Didn’t have time to stay around to find out any more, but it fouled the J line for a while, and held up a 22 and a 7 in the traffic.

You, too, can be a citizen intrepid Muni reporter. Send us your stories and photos, newsworthy or not.

In Case You Missed Friday’s Penis Puppet Show

We are still on a high from Friday’s Riders with Drinks, where so many of you came out that the Make-Out Room had to call for backup bartenders! We are speechless about the great energy from our performers and audience. We’ve got more Muni stories in the bag, but before we move on with the week, here is a little recap of the hot, hilarious, and awesome night at Riders with Drinks.

If you were there on Friday, you know that we closed the show with some homemade sock puppet re-enactment of the “Penis in public” story. Pictures of the puppets and other hilarity after the jump.

Riders with Drinks: Hella Hot, Literally

5 comments

Thank you to those of you who made it last night to Riders with Drinks, our first event! We are still in disbelief how many people we managed to pack into the Make-Out Room, raising the temperature in there by at least 20 degrees, I think.

We’ve got photos and videos to share, but for now, check out the post by the Tenderblog about last night’s spoken word hilarity. And for a little weekend fun, here’s a selection of goodies from last night’s Muni haiku troupe:

Stop yelling at me
Or just stop yelling near me
Did I just get flashed?
– Tara Ramroop

On crowded buses,
Always protect purses and —
Oh look, Some vomit!
– Ileana Shevlin

I, Muni Humper
Filled with longing and despair
Are you my angel?
– Chris Lindsey

Muni Diaries on I Live Here: SF

eugenia bus stop iliveheresf

And by “Muni Diaries” I mean me, your humble Muni Diaries editor, gussied up for a photoshoot on the awesome blog, I Live Here: SF. The talented photographer Julie Michelle started this project to photograph and document the stories of the people in San Francisco. And thanks to SFMTA, we had access to an empty bus downtown before its run started. For once I got to enact some shenanigans on the bus like running around and sit in the driver’s seat!

My feature is here and be sure to check out Julie Michelle’s other profiles, including Kathleen, proud TL bartender, and Brittney of CBS5’s Eye on Blogs.

And thanks to Julie Michelle for including me and creating this project that shows off our city through the eyes of many fascinating, spirited people.
