pet peeve
Notice there’s a fast lane and a slow lane, too…
It’s amazing to me how few people revolt …
So what I’ve noticed in my life so far is that the sidewalk, stairs, escalators, and other such things are like the road. Next time you’re walking down the sidewalk, notice how people tend to stay on the right side and the people going the opposite way stay on ‘their’ right side. Notice there’s a fast lane and a slow lane, too.
Like on the escalators people who don’t wanna walk up the escalators stay to the right and those who do go faster go to the left. Just like the street; fast lane, slow lane. Are we creatures of habit or what?! We’re all just sheep!
It’s amazing to me how few people revolt ; how we stop at red lights when we’re supposed to; how we don’t just go buck-wild and wear no shoes and no shirts to go shopping.
Here are some questions to think about:
- Why do we need laws?
- Do laws limit or create our freedom?
- Do laws reflect community values?
- Can laws address the needs of different minority groups?
- Should people obey laws which they disagree with?
Talk amongst yourselves children… :p
