15 Thoughts Fast Walkers Have When They’re Stuck Behind Slow Walkers
Owen J. Fitzpatrick

You’re briskly walking with a purpose toward your destination, proud that you might actually arrive early, when the epitome of a Monday appears before you— the slow walker.

1. This is not the time or the place for you to take a leisure stroll!

2. There are two imaginary lanes, fast and slow, and you are in the middle of both. GET OVER!

3. Universe, what did I do to deserve this?!

4. I walk like someone with a purpose. You need to get one!

5. I have places to be!

6. How long do I have to hover behind you before you sense my urgency?

7. Why are all four of you taking up the sidewalk? Part the waters!

8. *Obscenities galore*

9. I have long legs. I need to stride not shuffle! Look alive!

10. I’m at least a foot shorter than you and I can move faster than this!

11. Do I need to light a fire under your *ss?

12. Maybe if I step on their heels they’ll get the hint…

13. Take your swag somewhere else and walk at a normal pace like the rest of us.

14. Ain’t nobody got time for this!

15. There’s a special place in Hell for people like you.


If you are an example of one of the aforementioned and soon-to-be Hell dwellers who lack a purpose, destination, or capability of walking at a speed over 0.5 mph, please kindly consider those behind you, who desperately want to get where they’re going.

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.
