Are you nuts? You’re out for a run down the sidewalk on Spring Garden Road AT LUNCH TIME – and you have the NERVE to look irritated at having to navigate around people? Are you kidding me??? Why would you and your spandex laminated T&A choose what must be the busiest time and place for foot traffic in Halifax to go jogging? A wee bit of an exhibitionist maybe? Well, I’m sure the panhandlers are enjoying the jiggle. Bizarre, choice ladies. —I Ain’t Movin’

they want to be seen op and please, if you can afford a batman utility belt, invest in a good over the shoulder boulder holder
lmao…those water bottle “utility belts” are the stupidest looking things.
I agree OB. You want to jog on one of the cities busiest streets at lunch hour, then be prepared to be “inconvenienced”. Asshats.
I saw a fellow running with one of those water bottle “utility belts” yesterday. I had to look twice, because I couldn’t believe my eyes.
The older I get, the more ass-hats I see.
We have contest involving ‘calling’ the utility belt wearers. Whoever calls one on sight first gets the number of ‘bottles’ they’re carrying added to their score. Almost as much fun as playing “I Spy”. Next time ask the dumb bitch what the fuck is wrong with her. Why are people so stupid? Honestly…
I can see the spandex because it’s easier to work out with clingy clothing and the material absorbs sweat better, but WTF — I’m not moving for any more runners when it’s rush hour on SGR. No fucking way. I’m sick of it. Just like I’m sick of the asshats who ride their bikes on the sideWALK and give the bikers who ride properly a bad name.
Fuck both of these types of people. Fuck you both.
Yeah… there’s plenty of low traffic space around that area where they could jog to their heart’s content. Halifax isn’t that busy of a city, why choose the busiest part? Doesn’t make any sense to me either OP, you might be on to something, maybe they just want to be seen.
a good reason not to ride on the sideWALK http://www.thestar.com/news/article/104825…
As Fool on the Hill put it, this Ass Hat is one of those “look at me, look at me” and when people do they piss and moan about it, by the way last I checked Tripping is only a two minute penalty so Have At It OP
And I didn’t even get to the the yummy (or so they seem to think) mummies with STROLLERS in their Lulu gear doing the same thing!!! Because my head was exploding!
aha, so you are the op? rant away snubiz, my head explodes regularly http://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/upload…
fuck them, as they by you, accidently move your hoof in their path. skinned beaks are a fucking riot to watch them get.
wow, OB, its noon hour on a beautiful day, you are out in the fresh air…………..and you are still a cranky bitch. what gives?
Glad to know I’m not off the mark with this one!
right up there with text walking and on phones and not looking where they are going dude.
Personally, I’d rather see spandexed pigeons prancing down Spring Garden than some chick’s tits bouncing like oranges in a pair of panty hose.
I had a jogger bounce off the side of my truck on Barrington St a year or so ago.
They were running while looking down & didn’t see my stopped truck, yeah I was at a complete stop & they ran right into the passenger side of my truck box…I thought it was funnier than anything I’d seen in awhile, they didn’t agree & were vocal & very pissed.
Just made me laugh harder.
Joggers ….take your head set off , pay some attention to what’s going on around you & perhaps you might also look where the fuck you’re going…..asshole(s)
That’s quite the rude fork Snubiz.
This woman is divorced, probably getting old, and desperate to remarry. And this is how she tries to pick up men.
OP, congrats. Don’t get out of their way. Silly runners can use side streets or Point Pleasant to run.
i’ve encountered crazy runners in ppp, best to stand aside if you’re walking a dog. they can kick and run at the same time. the joggers with fur critters are the worst, they don’t stoop and scoop
