are you the type of person who just presses the crosswalk button once, or do you sit there and press it over and over and over, in hopes that that will somehow make the light change faster? |

Nope...more like the Bewitched lady.

2. You must be wearing Zubaz, 'cause you're daring to be different.
3. I am a man with 3 fingers...but that doesn't count my index finger nor my thumb. |

Okay... But if you start having fainting spells or something, Apples is probably using her superior brain power, to cause you bodily harm.

How did I miss this thread so chock full of burning questions???
Here is mine. At the intesection by my house, there are two buttons at 90 degree angles, and no reason to think either one corresponds to any particular direction. My kids laugh at me because I can never remember which button to press. How are you supposed to know?

Ah, it is a Zippy the Pinhead quote. Or it might be a true statement. Don't know how we could tell, really. This reminds me of my Schroedinger's Cat sig and other silliness.
We have a funeral home here called Shoedinger's. One day, I will have my fun with their sign. shhhh! Don't tell anyone, please?
For now, I'll have to resort to photoshop:

No no -I meant the "alps" part.
KoK always gets my name wrong, and calls me alps. I feel like he is referring to a range of mountains made out of dog food. Ahh, nevermind. Too many complexes already.
Do you guys know we just passed thru a BLACK HOLE in space?
Oh...I just noticed this. from now on I'll refer to you as your full screen name so as not to make that mistake again
Sorry Apples4us

This thread reminds me of a late night at work I had last Wednesday. My train gets into LA Union station at 4:00 am thursday morning. It is supposed to arrive at 8:30PM wednesday. Anyway I'm tired as hell and just as hungry so I go walking over to the gas station to get some pretzels and a Snickers (because it satisfies). Anywho I honestly felt like a survivor after the appocolypse. There were so many homeless people zombie-ing around that it was surreal.
Oh the reason I thought of this is, last week I stood at the same crosswalk waiting for my signal for what seemed like an eternity, until finally some homeless guy says "You need to press the button!" I was like "thanks homeless guy!"
And we all know how I feel about homeless people...
They're people... and they have no homes.

In Sim City the people go all red after about 45 seconds of having to wait for the elevator.
With that gauge, I wonder what color the entire human population would show up as on average...I'm thinking orange-red.
Hey, that's my favorite color!

I read somewhere it takes people 45 seconds before they become VISIBLY annoyed with waiting for an elevator/crosswalk. ie. fidgeting, pacing, pressing the button again etc.. If an elevator doesn't come in 45 seconds, I call in sick!

Do you press the crosswalk button even when there is no crosswalk button to press? That, to me, would be more of a problem than repeatedly pressing the crosswalk button.

Ha, suckers. you have to stand and wait. You'd never survive in London - taking your life in your hands and facing down taxis is much more amusing.
