These people drive me NUTS. I am SO SO tired of dodging them. And, overhearing details about their sex lives, their Aunt Edna's bowel movements, and everything else they seem oblivious to the fact that the wide world is hearing about.
I'm beginning to think that those guys who're stealing manhole covers might be doing us all a favor...giving natural selection a helping hand!
So, I got me a WHISTLE. Yep, a cheap, tinny REALLY LOUD whistle. And, whenever one of these morons is about to run into me I "tweet" em. Just as loud as I can.
Heh, heh...they turn up, complete with tools, traffic cones, orange vests, the works. Then they pull the manhole cover, toss it on the truck, and split, leaving the cones. Everyone thinks they're from the city.

Don't worry. Many cities know of the problem. They first did cars. Now they are up to walking texters. Once they are finished with them then onto the next group of brain donors ( they will probably get it passed as an excessive noise violation ).

A wonderful idea! Let me know if you're going to run for office; you'll have my vote if you make that a part of your platform.
Today while parking at the station I was stopped at the stop sign entering the lot, some idiot was reading his email and was about to walk right into the front of my car. Whistle, you suggest? How about a car horn. Should have seen the moron jump out of his pants and then squirm away with some sheepish look on his face.
When walking in public, it is important to be aware of one's surroundings-Esp when crossing the streets or walking down a flight of stairs. It is too much with this. People will not even eat dinner with a date without picking up the phone ever 5 minutes. I went on one date and she was texting 7-8 times an hour. Enough!!
It's annoying when I'm on my way to work and someone who is on their phone suddenly slows down to a snails pace in front of me to direct their attention to their communication. I hope that cell service never comes to the subway cars, but I have a feeling its on its way.
