This is a serious question.

We’ve all been trapped behind slow walkers — simmering with frustration as they wander aimlessly in our paths or study their iPhones with blind obsessiveness. But if you’re the type to barge past these slow-pokes in a fury, then you may have a full-blown psychiatric disorder known as Pedestrian Aggressiveness Syndrome.

Also known as “Being a New Yorker.”

#2: DO NOT suddenly stop walking in the middle of a sidewalk.

this is a sure fire way of getting cursed out. you need to realize that suddenly stopping in the middle of the sidewalk because you realized you’re walking towards 5th instead of madison has it’s repercussions. little you will cause all 500 people behind you to crash into each other. 

#1: DO NOT make eye contact with a stranger for an extended period of time.

more than 1 second is considered an extended amount of time.. also, unless you want that stranger to start talking to you, DO NOT smile at them!
