As surely as Spring follows Winter the "Patio People" are starting to emerge from their hibernation. These are people who sit out in the open sidewalk stuffing their faces with food inches away from pedestrians and feet away from toxic spewing autos. Of course, they are also occupying scarce sidewalk space reducing room for skateboaders like me and moms with "SUV" baby carriages. End of rant.
Patio People

I love a good afternoon drunk sitting on a patio watching people. I'm looking forward to it, summer can't come soon enough.

Go to a skate park!
One of my pet peeves is skateboarders who disrupt sidewalk traffic with their self indulgent and dangerous activities.

I agree, it makes me insane as well, also those who ride their bikes on sidewalks, (not including little kids).slurp said:

Don't get me started on those @#$%^ sandwich boards that litter our sidewalks. Not only are they an eyesore but a physical obstacle to orderly pedestrian traffic.

FYI... Just for the record... I don't ride on sidewalks! (But I have had sex on a patio bar once!) True story!

Sandwich boards and patios miscreants and baby-killing cyclists. Catastrophize much?Rockslinger said:
You should write a strongly worded letter to your city councillor!
One of the pleasures of Europe is having lunch with a glass of wine or beer and watching the world go by. It's good for the soul, and we need more of it here.

He said he is preoccupied thinking of new taxes and raising old ones (more revenue to pay his union friends). Hey, there's an idea. How about a tax on sandwich boards and patios?

LOL! No we don't... much like you SC people!
(I am pretty sure I told you that story already...)
His friends are in a union? How convenient! That must make it easier for them to gang up on you.

How about those assholes, that fall down, hurt their ankles and disrupt traffic on the streets.

I hate those dinks who let their houses catch on fire, thereby wasting my tax dollars calling the fire department, disrupting my rights to use the street while they park their big red trucks all over the place.
What a waste! Those firefighters just sit around all day anyway.
