The cops

So my bus got stopped by the cops this am. Apparently the bus driver did not have the right away.

The cop was a prick and didn't want to back up for the bus since another vehicle was blocking the right lane.

Ok I don't know a thing about city law, muni rights and how the cops operate (I try to avoid them at all costs) but I would think that a bus full of people on their way to work to pay city taxes has more of a right away then a cop driving a large suv with only 1 person in it.

Now I don't want you to think that I am anti-gas guzzler, because I really don't care, but I think the cop wanting to have the right away over a group of people is just selfish.

Now I am on the bus and have secured a seat. I am sitting between two guys. One is ina suit the other in an itchy wool sweater that keeps rubbing against me.

Oh and to make things worse, they are both sitting with their elbows out so I keep getting elbowed on either side. The polite thing to do is to tuck your arms in but apparently suit and itchy sweater didn't get the memo.

Muni you ruined my shoes

Running to the bus this am ( like I do ever day) I stepped in a drain. Fuck.

My heels are ruined. Going to call cole haan to see if they can be repaired.

I get to the bus stop and still have to wait. If I wouldve just walked, I wouldn't have ruined my shoes and I'd still be on the bus. Dammit!

On the good side, we have a few more windows open on this bus than usual. Thank the lord.

Not PC

What you are about to read is not political correct.

I don't understand why chinese people insist on standing in the middle of the street waiting for the bus. I just don't get it. Then they walk to the other corner and wait there starring anxiously.

Now I am not a mini expert I've only been riding for about a year now but I do know that standing in the middle of the street and standing on the opposite corner does not make the bus come any faster.

If anyone knows the answer to this please let me know! It has been one of the biggest mysteries for me since I've been riding muni.

The hot guy on the bus

San francisco is an amazing city. The views, the architecture, the bay, everything in this just breath taking.

So I am on the bus and this guy keeps staring at me. Yes! He's not my type but he could very easily be.

I keep looking up from my book and every time he's staring at me.

Well then I realize that he's looking at the bay and the bay bridge in all its glory.

Ahhh, there's always next time

On crowded buses....

Always protect purses and wallets.

Ok people for starters my purse is a bag. A big fucking heavy ass bag. I dare you to steal it! The bag will take you out before you even try running with it.

And let's be honest we're in San Francisco, so when a guy gets rubbed in the butt I think his first thought isn't about his wallet, he's thinking that he's just been violated.

The point I was trying to get to was tourists. I wonder if they are really worried about their belongings when they get on a bus. I remember being in Italy and using their public transportation and protecting my belongings but I wonder if the people who live there protect theirs on a daily basis.

Maybe its because I ride buses to the nice neighborhoods and the only thing I need to worry about is the smell in China town.

Speaking of which ( and yes. I do realize this is a terrible ramble) they want to build and under ground from china town to soma.

Does china town really need another method of transportation catered to china town. They estimate that it would take 7 minutes to get from the start to the end, which would be nice but only if it was underground. But then think about the smell from all the pink bags, dripping, leaking and being left below ground where the sun don't shine.

I am very much against the idea of adding another line in chinatown especially since muni has cut back and limited so many of the lines that it currently runs. My don't they make certain bus routes better before they start building news ones?

Ahh muni I love you.

Windows

Why don't people open the fucking windows on these buses? Why?!?! Do they like the humid germ filled air? Do they like showing up to work sweaty and as their make up is melting down their face?

I really need to get back on my 8am bus so much better. I've figured out that I can get on a later bus and still make it to work on time but it isn't worth this shit!

And people get on with their fishing poles? What is that about? In some citing certain things of that nature aren't allowed on commuter or rush hour transit. take bart for example I think they have certain trains that do allow bikes during peek hours.

It is only a matter of time before a packed bus let's someone with a fishing pole on and someone loses and eye.
