Tripping people

    Is it right to trip idiots that walk into your path and stop for no reason?

    Lately, it seems that I cant walk through a shopping centre or even down a city street without having some teenage girls in leggings and ugg boots (and usually equipped with WAY too much makeup) wander about oblivious to the world around them, before finally stopping right in my path. I'm sick of it!

    I'm going to start clipping their heels as they pass me.

    They have been warned*



    *But only if they inhabit AH i suppose

    Go for it I suppose, it sounds remarkable interesting...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,526 ✭✭✭brendansmith


    Surely providing them with acid would only add to their obliviousness.

    Bad idea.

    miserable much?

    Just stumble into them and try and get a feel of some boob.
    Then give out and tell them it's their fault.

    jeez, you've very little to be worrying about.

    Careful now. Trip up a teenage girl in leggings and she might beat you up.

    'Windmill' your arms while walking.

    The last person I tripped, on purpose, lost their front teeth and I ended up at the head sisters office,I can't remember my punishment as I was in low babies, but it must have been traumatic (hence memory loss)


    You've been warned.

    If they walk into your path just stop and look at something and leave the fool walk into you

    The fact that you are advocating tripping only teenage girls and not, say, adult males is instructive.

    One of the great pleasures in having small children is when you get to take a buggy to dozy / ignorant feckers' ankles.

    Even if you don't particularly want to procreate, its worth it just for that.

    Just play "pedestrian chicken", see who flinches first.

    Holding your elbow out while pretending to make a phone call is acceptable in the rules.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,165 ✭✭✭Interceptor


    Hold up your fingers like a gun and shout 'BOOM, HEADSHOT' into their ears as you pass, pretending to shoot them. Then resume whatever other loony fantasy was playing in your head prior to that.

    This gave me a little chuckle :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 717 ✭✭✭Porkpie


    Cover your face and clothes with sh!t. Argue with yourself and swat imaginary flies as you walk.

    Oh I really hate the lack of crowd movement ettiquette in this country. I oft' times wish to purchase a white walking stick.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 170 ✭✭ItsNoAlias


    Just grab one of their shoulders and start a strange but sexy type of pole dance...

    They should run away then.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,453 ✭✭✭evil_seed
