The San Francisco SPCA Adoption Center has reopened, and how. The newly remodeled facility features San Francisco-themed cat condos fit for a king (or the cat who thinks he’s a king).

Wouldn’t you know it, this precious micro version of the city, per @kevinmonty, includes a cable car. I know the inclination is to be all, “HA, cats would never show up on public transit,” but cats totally show up on public transit, if you’re wondering.

Peter Hartlaub finds transit utopia on the 77X-Candlestick

3 comments

According to Peter, what does it take for the perfect transit experience? A rad destination and open-container boozing on the bus, of course.

SF Chronicle columnist Peter Hartlaub graced the stage at Muni Diaries Live this April with tales of frozen turkey/bologna sandwiches, screensavers, and mullet’d Muni drivers. Who wouldn’t want to freeze the moment on their last Muni ride to Candlestick Park?

Muni Diaries Live is our twice-a-year live storytelling event at the Elbo Room. We’ll be back this fall with another great lineup and riotously hilarious Muni stories.

No, it’s not Lassie. Doesn’t this Muni passenger look just like Boo, the world’s cutest dog? Sidenote: I heard a story at Porchlight from Boo’s literary agent (that’s right) about the time when she took Boo and Boo’s mom, I mean, owner, to an appearance on Good Morning America. He sounded like quite the charmer.

We’ve got more animals on Muni over here for your Monday morning.

We all have our ideas of right and wrong. And those norms don’t take a back seat when we ride Muni. Nor should they.

Here are some questionable things seen and smelled on Muni this week:

  • A woman just crawled on the streetcar with an open tallboy of Old English. Happy Monday! #MuniDiaries
  • On the 33 line and for the first time, saw a driver curse out a passenger!
  • Old woman dressed entirely in black on #sfmuni brushing the hair of a creepy doll. Quota for the macabre, fulfilled.
  • Someone pooped on the bus during my morning commute. #sfmuni
  • man picks nose. smears findings on bus wall. my stomach… #munidiaries

This week’s Things on Muni is brought to you by fellow Muni riders @pjrocks12, @findslt, @keaneiscool, @laurenylee, and @a_pisceslife. You, too, can contribute at @munidiaries.
