Today a man got on the 35 Eureka wearing a sailor hat, tailored suit and many, many mardi gras beads. He screamed:
"Go Giants! Goooo Giants! GO GO GIANTS!"
Apparently he was well known though, as more than one other passenger, waved at and greeted him.

Proof of Payment
Today on the 38BX a MUNI guy came on the bus to check all our Clipper Cards. It took less than 2 minutes to get through everyone but the man behind me was livid:
"Oh. What the hell? This is such a waste of my time. What a fucking waste of time. God damnit..... This is ridiculous! Jesus christ!"
You would think that his reaction meant he didn't have proof of payment... But no, he did. He just clearly didn't have one tiny moment to spare.
Incidentally, this was the first time I have ever - and I mean ever, in my 20 years of living in San Francisco - been checked for payment on MUNI.

No One On Muni At 6:30am
Today I was on the 24 Divisadero at 6:30am. Nothing special or exciting happened, I just don't think I have ever been on Muni that early and seeing from the lack of people on there, I'm assuming many of you haven't been either.

Lovesick
"She passed me a note in class that said 'I love you'.... I went to the bathroom and threw up." - Ten year old boy to his ten year old friends on the 22.

Just Get On The Bus!
Older Asian woman gets on the 1 California today and her Clipper beeps wildly over and over again...
Bus Driver: Press it agaisnt the blue part. Again. Again. Do it again! Again.
Woman: [Looking flustered, ready to give up]
Driver: Again! Do it again! Do it again! Just get on the bus!
This happened twice. The second time with a very elderly Asian man missing all his teeth. Everyone on the bus was laughing at the bus driver's persistance but he seemed to be doing it in more of a supportive tone than an angry one. Nice surprise.
