i’ve lived here for more than 5yr and worked downtown for over 3yr, it feels like people are getting progressively stupider or more entitled when it comes to how they use these public spaces. started as just the occasional asshole but now i see it almost every day: people walking on the wrong side of the sidewalk against pedestrian traffic, on their phones people walking in the bike lanes people riding lime scooters and e-bikes on the sidewalk with a bike lane less than 4′ away people straight up ignoring the direction markings on bike lanes and just going the wrong way anyway people letting their dogs wander into the bike lanes not even kidding when i say i’ve seen people *standing in the middle of sidewalks on the phone* it’s so infuriating every time i hear about someone getting hit by a bike or escooter on the sidewalk i can’t tell if im just noticing it more now but it feels like people are getting more entitled and more oblivious edit: sorry, mods, typed this on my 15 and messed up on rule 9. fixed it now, thanks for flagging submitted by /u/__mafia |
