Muni Diaries has been documenting a series of fake ads on Muni buses. First there was a fake campaign for Tums, and now this one mocking Tartine Bakery on 18th Street.

seriously, why are these people so interested in what other people choose to do? I thought this was San Francisco…
1. Tartine does not sell donuts.
2. I highly doubt anyone has ever waited five hours.
3. Whoever made this should put their effort into something more productive than mocking a bakery that makes delicious breads and pastries. People who wait in line for these items are choosing to do so. If you don’t want a croissant, don’t get in line. Absurd or not, there’s no reason to criticize a local small business with an outstanding product such as Tartine.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who finds it absurd that people wait in long lines at Tartine and Bi-Rite Creamery.
