Do you have 'sidewalk rage'?

you’ve been warned tourists, you’ve been warned.. no, but seriously pick up the pace! haha

theweekmagazine:

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.

Here’s everything you need to know about this disorder, including how to tell if you’ve got it (and how to avoid people who have it).

Also known as “Being a New Yorker.”
