Your place to share stories on and off the bus.
I will resist the urge to simply WTF this one. I will resist the urge to simply WTF this one. I will resist the urge to simply WTF this one. I will resist the urge to simply WTF this one.
h/t Patrick: “This is apparently a real thing that happened on the London Overground. Do you know this man?”
Yeah, we don’t know, either. Maybe we should put our best little-kid minds to work cracking this code, though I’m a little scared of what it actually means.
Here are some other examples of Muni and BART sign hackage you might’ve missed:
BART sign hack: Dancing, singing, art, play
Public transit sign hack: Station agent ass stance
Muni Signage Hack: Move Where?
h/t Paul: “Someone, please help me decipher what’s going on here.”
There are no more carpets on BART, unless you bring one with you, but you’re not that weird, are you? Why are you weird?
BART announced today that it has now fully finished removing those last vestiges of past nastiness: carpets along the floors of its trains EW EW EW.
Congrats, BART! This is worth celebrating and spilling alcoholic beverages on the floor, then simply wiping that mess up with a cloth. Hip-hip, hooray!

Perhaps insisting what a mistake it would be to consider Child’s Play a “dated movie,” horror villain Chuckie made an appearance on Muni recently. Don’t laugh! Whatever you do, do not laugh.
h/t Muni rider Erika: “On @sfmta some guy holding a Chuckie doll like it’s no biggie”
Side note: One Muni Diaries editor (I’m not saying which one!) thought at first that this was Laughing Sal.
Because of course they do.
BART rider and artist Camila Valdez left these sculptures in the Civic Center Station recently. I’m wondering how those people standing by not looking can resist.
From her biography:
Her sculptures are inspired by the secret esthetics of everyday products. Objects, in this case desserts, express their feelings to Camila through their colors, shapes and styles. She says “If a Cupcake is good looking eyecandy, it says come and get me!”
Cool.
