The youth of today

It seems to be cool to walk at a snail's pace in front of busy traffic. Not sure if this is because they are hard or they are on something. Ketamine? Funny that I seem to have three times the energy of some kids a third of my age.

Obviously a minority but please enlighten me.

The title is, of course, facetious. There are many postive things. Why do I need to put in a disclaimer?

Observed this quite a lot recently, including a couple of weeks back a guy (not particularly young, mid-20s) on Kennington Road walking out in front of a bluelit ambulance and forcing it to come to a complete stop and standing in front of it, only did a runner when the passenger went to get out. Is it a fad?

Fad'll stop when one of them gets mown down for being a tosser.

Wouldn't bet on it, look at the number of idiots who get killed every summer tombstoning.

Personally and I dunno why, but I felt the need to test out my 9 lives for many years

Only in retrospect do I look back and say WTF? to myself.

I'm guessing these guys are on a similar tip

Still stooooopid tho

That's disgraceful, I'm genuinely outraged by this. There could have been a very sick person needing urgent treatment in that ambulance. People like this should be arrested with the he full force of the law for obstructing an emergency vehicle whilst on duty. This post has made me angry, I need to calm down. Grrrr.
