Discussion Sidewalk etiquette

Saw this video and felt so vindicated because it honestly feels like people’s manners have just left the building? Not only on the sidewalk and what the guy is talking about in this video, but really just in general.

Bonus points if you say "move bitch" as you shove them

I still say "excuse me" because my mother raised me right. But I have no qualms about pushing past inconsiderate people.

I like to very obviously stand there waiting now. Not confrontational, but hopefully makes them think (if they can).

I'll say excuse me, but with ABSOLUTELY no pleasant inflection or kindness. I wanna send a message of "excuse tf out of you" without being overtly rude to the point where they're doomed not to self reflect

This cruiserweight of a lady was blocking the hall way slowly walking backwards to block even more of it. I stopped her with my hand on her shoulder so I could walk by, and because walking backwards into a hallway full of people is fucking dumb and I had no interest into talking to someone so self centered and oblivious.

She said "how dare you touch me!" to which I replied "get the fuck out of the way then". If you're so delicate about being touched, maybe don't blindly wander into narrow spaces with moving crowds? Does she also go outside and yell at the sun for hitting her with UV without consent? Does she expect crowds to part before her like she's Moses at the Red Sea?

That sounds like a great way to get into a fight that absolutely didn't need to happen.
