I pulled into Wolfmart and a flock of them decided to congregate behind my car as soon as the reverse lights went on.
I could have just stomped on it, but then we would have seen a lot of students wearing black armbands for the next week. 8/19/2009 4:27:35 PM

I avoid dan allen as much as fucking possible because of nearly hitting people. However... even with that, I had to slam on brakes to avoid hitting one UT slut chatting away on her cell phone today in front of Nelson. 8/19/2009 4:55:27 PM

Some guy was walking across Hillsborough in the middle of the day looking at his phone well after the crosswalk had gone from the friendly welcoming white hand to the scary and clearly dangerous orange man.
I could almost hear the voice in his head singing "DUR DEEEEE DUR DEE DUR" 8/19/2009 5:48:36 PM

Nope, these are not freshmen. After 6 months of living on campus everyone takes on the attitude that any vehicle will stop and you can walk whenever you please, especially on the 2 speed humps on Dan Allen.
The freshmen I encountered today were the only ones that were timid, waiting to see when a good time to go was.
(I know pedestrians have the right of way, but when I'm gonna get there about the same time as you and there are no other vehicles why not let me get out of your way instead of stopping me for like 40 of you?) 8/20/2009 2:58:17 AM

I never got this shit.
It takes so much longer for someone to walk across the road than for me to fucking drive 35 miles per hour 12 feet so that you can take your time and text your way across the street. fucking bitch.

You mean the two speed humps that are crosswalks? 8/20/2009 11:12:13 AM

dan allen is easy to navigate, you just drive fast enough that you jump over the people crossing at the speed humps.
hopefully no one steps out in front of your before then... or decides to jump at the cross walk. 8/20/2009 12:12:41 PM

i hate it when freshmen are staring down at their campus maps instead of paying attention to whats in front of them. you have lived on campus for 5 days already, why the fuck have you not already found where you are going?
i didn't drive over any freshman but i got walked into by one in the brickyard who wasn't looking where he was going. if it had been a pretty female it would have been fine and i would have offered to help her find her class. but alas, fat white boy. 8/20/2009 12:17:35 PM

I hate the half ass run across the street where the pedestrian jogs 4 steps and then slows to a leisurely walk as soon as they cross the line in the middle.
YOU'RE STILL A DICKHEAD, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU SLOW TO A WALK ON MY HALF OF THE STREET. 8/20/2009 12:51:15 PM

Okay I'll play devil's advocate.
God forbid you have to wait <10 seconds for students who have the right of way on a college campus.
That's less time than you would for any stoplight, and really, is 10 seconds going to make that much
of a difference? 7/26/2010 7:51:00 PM

ahh yes. i remember my very first day in college back in ought 3, i parked my car in that shitty valentine parking lot, and i stopped in front of the cross walk to wait for the cars to pass by, when some random girl grabbed me by the arm and told me to "just keep walking." oh, how bright eyed and bushy tailed I was way back then. so thank you, mystery lady, for teaching me the ways of dan allen.

College campuses are one of only a handful of places where pedestrians assert their right of way. Just about everywhere else people realize that getting mutilated is getting mutilated; right of way or no. 7/27/2010 7:52:45 AM
