Except when you’re walking on a road, you should walk on the opposite side of vehicle traffic.
I take back my post, THIS is my hill to die on. Please note that it applies to any mixed use path where one type of traffic is markedly slower, so pedestrians on the road, obviously, but also walkers on bike paths.
I frequent a bakery that sells the Swedish treat called a semla. No one who works there speaks Swedish, so when I ask for ”two semlor” (pl.), they repeat it right back to me ”two semlas”. Sigh. They have a very finite number of foreign language menu items—they can learn the plurals. (Don’t get me wrong, if ”semlas” is the price of semlor I don’t have to make, I am willing to pay it, but boy does it annoy me.)
And that is exactly how I ended up never watching Game of Thrones.
I’m neither a writer nor a scientist, but there’s a copy of this on my bookshelf and I wish I could lend it to you: Deadly Doses: The Writer’s Guide to Poisons
I frogged the majority of a piece recently, and I felt better when I reminded myself that I like knitting. I don’t care a ton about knitted things. So I got to have all of that fun and learning, and now I get to do it again without even buying more yarn. (Mine was also on my only long circular, so now I can magic loop again. Double win.)
Also, it’s a beautiful piece, so go you. I actually dig the colors.
