Random Small Kindness In Transit
Photo by Mike Dillon
Ashley from A Beautiful Struggle came across a randomly kind passenger recently.
Honestly, I’ve seen some really odd things on the Muni train that I just can’t unsee. Anyway, this last Saturday my wonderful boyfriend and I were on Muni coming back from downtown SF to my apartment near SF State. I sat down near an old, man wearing a checkered sweater with a black cap and a large mustache. He looked at me with such a gaze that I will never forget and said: “Miss, you are a very beautiful lady. Please keep smiling, doing what you do and never forget that. You are very beautiful and never let anyone tell you different. This world needs someone like you.”
By far one of the sweetest things anyone has ever said to me. I truly will not forget this.

SFMTA: Muni Metro electrical outlets are dangerous

@munidiaries @britsterrett Outlets – 600 Volts – are not for public use. Device could be damaged if outlet is used.

This seemed curious because, to our knowledge, people have been delighted to find and plug electronics into these outlets on a fairly frequent basis.
I just blew @creativewoody's mind by plugging my phone in to an outlet on the N Judah. #munisecrets @munidiaries #munininja #OSL

Several @munidiaries followers called bullshit on Muni for suggesting such a thing. We’ll put a call in to SFMTA to get more information. Meanwhile, some of our followers have pointed out that “If that were true, Muni would be liable for terminating it in an outlet rated for 120v@15A” — via @toxic
So, Muni, which is? Dangerous? Not for public use? Or, are you trying to avoid the inevitable bum rush when everyone tries to charge their weak-ass-battery-having smart thing?
Muni Metaphor of the Day

From a very confusing posted sign at a bus stop:
“Muni buses are dogie playgrounds. Muni drivers love listen to dogs barking 24/7.”

Giants Win the Pennant With Muni’s Support!

Muni has been displaying the grammatically challenged “GO GIANTS !” for quite some time now, so we like to think that our transit system’s support of the hometeam had something to do with the celebration last night.
For the second time in three seasons, World Series baseball games will be played in San Francisco beginning tomorrow. Get ready, y’alls!
