You're pissed because you were in the wrong. If you're gonna jaywalk (I do, lots), you don't get to be righteously indignant when someone calls you on it. Take your medicine.

Didn't happen.

Use the fucking crosswalk you dipshit.

You're seriously mad that you did a shit job of planning your commute, darted out into rush hour traffic from an unpredictable spot and a car manned by someone who doesn't want to hit any pedestrians was upset about it? Maybe she shouldn't have yelled at you, but you're the asshole in this situation if anyone is. "Pedestrians have the right of way" doesn't mean you get to do whatever the fuck you want and no one gets to complain.

You sound like a spoiled brat.

People still drive Hummers?

Its called jaywalking because you look like a birdbrain as you meander across the boulevard.
It takes balls to do it properly.

She did you a favor to wake you up. She was in backed up traffic, and maybe not in a great mood. Either way your safe,and just pissed. She has moved on. We all have been called out when we make mistakes. It is just life.

People in cars are dumb, getting angry over nothing. People in their own skin are dumb, reacting to anger over nothing. Fat people are dumb, especially with a cheeseburger in their hand when they are driving. Commentators are dumb, getting angry over this post.

No one is right or wrong. I'm above the law.

So smug: "I'm basically better than you because I'm navel-gazing, I don't drive, OH and I'm skinny."

Let's have a moratorium for hating on fat people.

Short version: "Even though I was in the wrong, the other person drove a Hummer. C'mon guys, back me up!"

"A frenzy takes over" doesn't always work as an excuse, which is why I'm banned from 90% of the frozen yogurt shops in the city and my pockets are full of butterscotch chips.

Drivers still give hummers?

Man, you reeeally want to justify your jay-walking, huh? I'm not sure of what body shaming has to do with it, but I am glad you got yelled at.

Maybe she doesn't even care about the jay-walking. Maybe she just sized you up, saw the lack of fat surrounding you, and assumed that you're just an asshole who cares too much about cardinal directions and needs a good yelling at, regardless of the actual reasons behind it.

So you see, you might have something in common, Judgey McPresumes-a-lot.



And in case that was all too many words for you, MOVE BITCH, GET OUT THE WAY!

I just crossed a fairly busy street. On one side of it, there was a cross walk. On the other side of the street, no more than 20 yards away, there was no cross walk. The woman waved me to walk without the cross walk.

Assholes are assholes because they just are, not because you are right or wrong, or a driver or pedestrian.

I agree 100%. There are certain parts of the Tri-met day that are unplanned, and I do end up running because I don't want to wait for the next bus.

I can already tell, I have no chance in this crowd, but I don't give a fuck.
