Also, why do all you folks have such a hard time navigating on the sidewalk in a crowd? How freakin' hard is it to avoid people? You go left, go right, slow down, speed up, and give polite verbal cues to the other pedestrians. It ain't fuckin' rocket science.

You must not walk much in a town inhabited substantially by overweight gov't secretaries who walk two or three abreast down the middle of the sidewalk, and who refuse to move aside, or, for that matter, walk in a straight line. I was stuck behind two such taxpayer-remoras this morning. I tried to go around them (well, circumnavigate might more aptly describe the detour I had to take), yet, as I was doing so, they drifted to the left, leaving me the choice of being absorbed into their blubber or stepping into the muddy tree box on the other side.
