Pedestrians

Basically stupid people on foot.

1. Take their time in the crosswalk while cars are waiting to make a right turn, before you know it your light is red.
2. Not pressing the crosswalk button does not give enough time to cross so they're in the way when your light turns green.
3. Not using the crosswalk. Jaywalkers make the motorist stupid. They stop while the pedestrian is still on the curb and allow them to cross. Mean while you're approaching this vehicle from behind wondering why it's stopped and you hit your brakes!!

Those stupid pedestrians didn't press the crosswalk button, my light is green now, can I run them over??

Annoying pedestrians

Annoying Predestrians are usually people who get in the way of cyclists, they also can tend to stand in the way when others are trying to get past on the sidewalk.

"hey look at those annoying pedestrians Jim"
"Yeah I know right! Mike died after he had to swerve to avoid those peds"

Pedestrian Pick

The act of getting a jump on a long line of traffic in a parking lot because some reckless pedestrian has decided to walk out in front of a car. Most beneficial when needing a left turn.

Driver: "Whoa! That fat lady almost got clipped by that Pinto."

Passenger: "Yeah, but that tub-of-lard cut off those other ten cars. Left turn please."

Driver: "Saved by the Pedestrian Pick!"

flesh pedestrian

*whispers* alternate name for skin walker. Saying “skin walker” aloud is said to bring unwanted attention from the entities. Using “flesh pedestrian” allows you to discuss the entities without risking attack.

My sister and I saw a flesh pedestrian while driving at night through the desert. I was so scared it would follow us!

pedestrian face-off

An awkward situation in which two pedestrians, who are on a collision course with each other, are repeatedly unsuccessful in averting one another. As one person moves to their right, the other person moves to their left and vice versa. Each time they attempt a new maneuver, the frustrated pedestrians find themselves confronted by their counterpart. To the casual observer, these two people may appear to be dancing, but in reality, they both just want to get on with their lives.

These encounters are far less common in Europe – especially in Germany, where the government enforces pedestrian decorum through a stringent "bear right" policy. Pedestrian face-offs have been known to last upwards of ten seconds.

Randy: I just had a pedestrian face-off that lasted a good 15 seconds. In the end, we came to the mutual agreement that both of us should step to our right.
Dina: Wow, 15 seconds?! That's gotta be a world record or something.

Space Pedestrian

An elusive being who rejects all ideological viewpoints out of hand in favor of taking a cosmic perspective. Often found trolling liberal website message boards.

We were commiserating about how taxes aren't high enough on the rich when Space Pedestrian came along and stoned us to our souls.
