If you are a group of people using the sidewalk and there is a solo-stroller approaching you why wouldn’t one of you move out of the way so I can pass you without having to walk in the muddy slush! Assholes.

This goes out to you OP whether you’re male or female:
God forbid, princess, that YOU walk in the yucky muddy slush!
I guess to you, they’re not good enough to walk on the sidewalk. God no, they’re dogs.. they have to move out of your way, you’re highness.
What else would you like, would you like me to go wipe your ass for you?!
LOL…..next time ask the group approaching if they can loan you a condom…..then you won’t need a stroller.
Valid Bitch in my honest opinion… though you can always say an assertive and firm yet polite “excuse me.”
If it’s a group of hot women, I say “excuse me, ladies. Mind if I have a little touch?”
You shouldn’t have moved over. What assholes. God forbid one of them had to step behind the other to let you by. It might mean they missed a tid-bit of scintilating conversation. Large groups who charge down sidewalks side by side deserve to be randomly doused with a pressure hose.
I never step off the sidewalk for foolishness like this. I usually just stop dead in my tracks. For some reason people seem more willing to walk around me when I am stopped than when I am moving.
I just stop dead in my tracks and wait until they get to me.
Invariably, they will squaddle together to get by…
though I’m no petite, fragile thing…
Why do people with strollers think they get the right of way all the time? On sidewalks, at the mall, at the market. Most people with them don’t even look when they walk – they just push on through with their almighty baby in a massive hummer of a stroller.
I don’t have a stoller, or a baby; but it is annoying when there’s a gaggle of idiots chatting along as they walk and can’t be bothered to shift a little bit so you don’t have to walk in slush/on ice
Jesus people, just share the sidewalk. Someone HAS to move or someone HAS to go in the muck. If you are taking up the whole sidewalk by walking side by side isn’t it easiest/logical for you to walk in single file for 2 seconds to let people go by you?
mind tech. it’s a flock of idiots:)
I’m with you z…. If a group of people is approaching me and I see no signs of anyone moving, I just stop right before we meet and give a dirty look. I’m surprised they don’t just run away screaming, though, when they see your imposing figure and disgruntled expression z……. 😛 What is it, something to do with where you work? LOL
I’m pretty sure the OP doesn’t have a stroller…I think they meant “stroller” as in “strolling along” type thing. Either way, valid bitch.
something like that jonno.
that and those fucking milk containers with the little string on the lids that snap off that we all hate so much.
No …Your the idiot.
All you had to do was stop.
It’s like being parked & they then have to go around you !!!DUHHHHH
Valid bitch.
I loathe the assholes who refuse to share the fucking sidewalk. Why do they do this? Is it just because they like to be Dicks? God forbid a group of people are forced to break from their perfect side-by-side formation for two seconds to allow one person to walk past. Really, it’s not that hard to do, I do it all the time if I’m walking with a group. Christ. Why are people so fucking rude? I just don’t get it.
I never move off the sidewalk for people like this.
IT’S MY OWN PERSONAL SPACE,AND SIDEWALK,SO THERE.KEEP THE FUCK ON YOUR OWN SIDEWALK FROM NOW ON.
LS… did you write the bitch about cream sauce? I see an uncanny similarity in the writing styles between this comment and the cream sauce post… ;-o
OP. Do what I do. Keep a rigid shoulder and if they ram into you, they hopefully get the message. My wife and I go through this all the time walking on sidewalks. We walk in single file. But these self-rightous, stroller or no stroller, pricks don’t understand the concept of sharing the “road”.
no, i didn’t write the cream bitch, just the comment on it.
One person in the duo could just stand behind the other while the solo person passes — stroller or no stroller, this is a valid bitch.
Geeez… how can the concept not even cross their minds? Perhaps they conceive the idea that the name “sidewalk” suggests they have to “WALK beSIDE” each other no matter what, right to the end. These people are just selfish and believe the world revolves around them. Expecting someone to step off the sidewalk into the snow/mud/whatever is their way of telling everyone to go fuck themselves.
Isn’t a game called chicken?
I am wondering how the term used solo-stroller has been construed as being someone walking with a baby stroller – honest to god. Anyone heard the term going for a stroll, aka going for walk. Therefore the term solo stroller means a person walking alone.
Sidewalks are made for 2-way pedestrian traffic – and anyone with an ounce of common sense would realize this. Myself I refuse to be pushed off the sidewalk by these inconsiderate a-holes, mind you it is always me that is in the wrong, I have been yelled at, cursed at, threatened to have my face bashed in all because someone in a group did not want to move over and ended up bumping shoulders. Have the decent courtesy to allow pedestrian traffic free flow in both directions!!!
NRFR,
they do have double/triple/quadruple strollers for multiple kids…
solo-stroller could be taken as the most common variety.
not to mention, what’s the first thing that comes to mind about bitches with the word “stroller” in them?
me thinks the bus/mini-hummers getting in the way is what people focus on…
to use a kay term for an analogy,
if I said …
“damn the corner at that intersection is obtuse…”
on a BITCH board, would you think it’s a blind, hard to navigate corner
or
a corner that’s greater than 90 degrees
?
