This week’s top moments on Muni feature a few well-dressed riders and a not-so-subtle battle of musical taste. I’m a hip-hop fan myself, but I’m not afraid of Achy Breaky Heart.

Top Muni moments this week:

  1. Putting Celine Dion on my phone to blast back at obnoxious boys who blast derogatory rap on the bus.
  2. Every time I’m treated to rap music on the 9, I unplug my headphones and treat everyone to “Achy breaky heart.”

PBR 12-packs need Muni, too, you know

Conundrum: cracking one open on the J-Church when it’s packed and you could really use one (though preferably something stronger) vs. cracking one open in relative, however visible peace.

I think it’s safe to say that the answer to this age-old question is: “Yes.”

From Samantha on the trusty Muni Diaries Facebook page (are you following us there? Because follow us there):

Thought you guys would find this entertaining. Dude was pre-partying before hitting up Dolores Park on the J. Legit.

We do find it entertaining, and so do you.

Update (Friday, 8:43 a.m.): KTVU and SF Weekly reports that a passenger on the bus helped stop it after it had dragged the car for some time.

KTVU tracked down the “cool-headed” passenger, Frank Primus, who was sitting in the rear of the runaway bus. Primus says when he realized the bus wasn’t actually stopping after hitting the Jetta, he dashed up to the driver seat, and put his foot on the brake.

“I realized we were headed toward Fell and the bus wasn’t stopping, the guy wasn’t stopping the bus,” Primus told KTVU.

Cyclists were jumping out of the path of the moving bus, which barely dodged oncoming traffic.

Muni Epidemic: Seat Jerks

Muni Seat Jerks come in two flavors: 1) Those who hog more than their allotted one seat; 2) Those able-bodied passengers who refuse to give their seats up for the elderly and disabled.

@angrysalesgirl pays homage to the latter (photo above):

“C’mon, this again? Someone let the lady sit.”

Seat hogs must be the top of the list in the Five People You Hate on Muni. If even Jerry Brown can’t get a seat on BART, what about the rest of us?
