This is a serious question.
We’ve all been trapped behind slow walkers — simmering with frustration as they wander aimlessly in our paths or study their iPhones with blind obsessiveness. But if you’re the type to barge past these slow-pokes in a fury, then you may have a full-blown psychiatric disorder known as Pedestrian Aggressiveness Syndrome.
Here’s everything you need to know about this disorder, including how to tell if you’ve got it (and how to avoid people who have it).
All we ask is that people stay to the right. And if you’re going to stop to tie your shoelace, light a cigarette, text, make a call, or just look up at the tall, pretty buildings, get the f@#* out of the way. That’s all. If you get out the way, you won’t get a mean face.
i absolutely, 100% have this disorder. especially when i’m walking through the city with my parents who stop to gawk at everything and walk so very very slow.
Hi, my name is Jamie and I am a ‘Sidewalk Rage-aholic.’ In addition to Pedestrian Aggressiveness Syndrome, I am stricken with a co-morbidity that causes serious frustration when people walk on the wrong (aka left) side of the side walk.
