Those people

posted August 13th, 2018 at 6:24 AM

I can't stand people who aren't aware of their surroundings. These are the ones who walk into a store and stop dead in the entrance while they figure out where to go. They walk down the sidewalk with their heads in their phones until I almost run into them and scare them half to death. They are standing on the bus or skytrain and move a whole 2 cm to allow me to get by when I have to get off. I really can't stand you people.

you're walking behind them, going at a fair clip...then they come to a complete abrupt stop (life altering text?) causing you to ram into them. Of course you're the bad guy.

Absolutely on the money

Just another one I see every day: the person who stops in their tracks right in front of a Skytrain gate while they look for their Compass card.
Wake up people!!

... the people who stop for the last 3 steps on the escalator. WHY?! They're walking, then they stop! Can they not judge how to step when the stairs are closing up at the top?

sounds like

Situational awareness...

...why, oh why, is it in such short supply? Airports, cafeterias, the grocery store, Costco, the library, the mall, crosswalks. Is this just where the DAFT hang out?
