Is that better or worse than a live rat?

Importantly don’t take up an entire busy sidewalk. If it’s super wide you and one person can be next to one another. Under scaffolding? Single file. Has food trucks or trees etc restricting space? Single file.

I’ve had people get super offended when I’m all the way over to the right and I stop and let them walk into me. Like you can just get behind your friend for thirty feet and pick up the convo then.

Yeah I don't jump into the intersection just to please them.

I only started driving recently and if I don't go and block the intersection the people behind me start honking because they can't also block the intersection with me as the light is changing. I guess it's a team sport.
