Mall Etiquette

My theory is that the same rules of the road apply to the mall. Since we drive on the right we should walk on the right. Should I really have to zig and zag through the mall because your barreling towards me in the wrong direction?

Who has the right away?

I think you should walk on the right and if you see a store on the left that you wish to visit you should approach with caution, enter said store, shop, and upon exiting make your way back to right side and continue with the flow of traffic.

I am I nuts because this irritates me?

Think of escalators as one way streets.

If you were a big black guy you wouldn't have this problem.

This reminds me of the Louie Anderson skit about being stuck being the old and the fat at the mall who are toddling in front of you, whom he notes "have the whole rest of their lives to be in front of you."

This stuff bugs the [censored] out of me. Avoid the mall at all costs, but whenever you're forced to go just accept the fact that between the mall-dwellers and the mall-workers you're about to be dealing with some of the dumbest [censored] on the planet.

Walking and cart use at Costco bugs me like this. A new strategy has emerged among the morons at my Costco where they pull their cart behind them rather than push it in front of them. This allows them to block a wider swath of aisle while they're making their big decision over children's socks. I want them all dead.

This was just a mistake and you don't actually think this is the proper term, right?

I feel like I've seen this written this way 10x lately in OOT.

Anyway, no. Walking on the right is not necessary in a mall. I mean, it's [censored] walking. You're moving 2mph. If you run into someone both of you are retarded.

It's sad to think that walking for most people is limited to the mall.

[/ QUOTE ]yeah i pretty much agree with this.

Mall shouldn't have to be some walking freeway.
