Pavement Rage

No, I am not angry that the brilliant US band Pavement are no more, this is to do with the causeway. According to a new study carried out by Nurofen Express commuters spend almost three and a half days a year waiting behind slow moving pedestrians. Around 52 per cent of the British workforce are being slowed down by dawdling people, leading to the loss of almost 82 hours a year.

The main causes of “pavement rage” are pedestrians with large bags and suitcases on wheels, crushing crowds and people giving out newspapers and flyers.

I am ashamed to say that I suffer from extreme pedestrian rage, which sometimes leads me to say some rather unpleasant things to total strangers.

Things that give me the ped-rage include; tourists, idiots, drunks, men in suits, people exiting buses, using a cigarette as a weapon, mentalists and beggars, bicycles, angle walking, film crews, umbrellas, people who cannot walk in a straight line, cars and vans, charity workers, excrement, street cleaners and Pete Doherty.

    You don’t get any old people or epileptics in London. They have been banned by Boris Johnson.
