might have to write a "I hate slow walkers" rebuttal

Thank you. I hate sidewalk tailgaters almost as much as highway tailgaters and experience similar anxiety with aggro walkers nipping at my heels. I follow the California Highway Patrol guidelines for road rage: let them pass, don’t engage, don’t make eye contact.

“don’t walk three-across on the sidewalk”

Excuse me? People do this all the fucking time! And then they act as if the person going the other way is the asshole for forcing them to acknowledge the existence of other human beings, simply for wanting to walk in the other direction without having to press themselves sideways onto a building or step into traffic! Fuck your chorus line and get over to, at maximum, one-half of the sidewalk!

Tailgating is NOT cool. I make every effort to leave space.

That aside... some of us have, you know, places to go.

I’m always trying to find the fast lane so I can stay away from it.
