(A few weeks ago) I saw two separate instances, in different cities, of men, in too much of a hurry to wait at a pedestrian crossing, shouting “fuck you” at the cars/vans that came along as they walked across the road. A large part of me thinks “dudes rock”, and my heart swells with patriotic pride that “jaywalking” isn’t a crime here … but also, it’s not great to be so angry.
