As much as I enjoy living in halifax this one issue has been bugging me ever since I’ve moved here. On numerous occasions while trying to cross the sidewalk I’ve had stupid idiots whom apparently don’t know how to use their vision almost run me over and I’ve had to literally move out of the way so they don’t hit me. One place in particular is the four-way stop along South Park & Inglis St. Jeez People learn to become more observant. Fucking watching for vehicles is not your only concern and I’d like to have someone actually stop and wait for me to cross instead of looking for an opening and gunning it. —Irritated Pedestrian

Put out your arm and, if they still don’t see you, you’ll have the satisfaction of giving them a one-fingered salute. Numbfucks. Some of them need a well-aimed lawn dart pitched at their tires before they snap out of their mental bubble.
Don’t cross until you see them see you.
when you go out your door o.p., you risk life and limb every time. either the cars, bikes, or parade walkers will get ya.
Find the openings! You should be doing circles around these cars OB. Be a jaywalking Ninja, come out of nowhere into their blind spots, and strike before they can react!
Cars are coming at you when you want to cross the sidewalk?
Are you living in the Chuck Norris part of Halifax that i’m apparently totally unaware of?
