i was just crossing the street to go to westlake center
waiting for the light to change
about twenty people started to cross, and i was about to cross with them when i saw the light was still green, so I waited
and one woman who didn't get over fast enough
went SMACK and flew a few feet to the ground
the truck that hit her stopped and a pretty young guy got out
i didn't see any blood but I moved fast enough that I wouldn't have to
i think someone said that her head was split open
but there was an ambulance right around the corner
so while I picked up some half-price godiva chocolates they wrapped her up
and when I came back out she was being put on a stretcher

the moral is, don't fuckin' jaywalk

also, HALF PRICE GODIVA CHOCOLATE BUNNIES.

Crack for women

God, you are a selfish bitch. I thought you were buying the chocolates for her grave.

Well then, fuck the melodramatic bitch.

I hope you had the decency to hit on the EMTs who were scraping her head off the concrete like a Cadbury Creme Egg.

nah, i was kidding. I'm from VA, THAT'S ruthless.

I fucking hate it when people jaywalk. I'm too inattentive as it is.

Yeah, or Vegas. Those taxi drivers will take you down in a heartbeat.

They're not ruthless. The drivers, the pedestrians, and the bicyclists are all selfish and/or inattentive.

back when saltmine was still right above coldwater creek, i walked to work one morning just in time to see the police section off an area right in front of the westlake center mall where the body of a lady who'd jumped off the balcony was. they didn't bother to clean up the little river of blood.

btw, i'm very glad you didn't get hit.

Seattle's the only place I've been where pedestrians actually stop for the DON'T WALK signs even when there is no traffic.

I jaywalk a lot, but I've almost reversed trained myself to look for cars instead of lights. Idiots always try and turn in front of you, and i've almost been creamed by a metro bus that way. totally did not see me, and I had the light, but i was watching him the whole time and dodged out of the way when it was clear he wasn't going to stop.

The moral is look before crossing, make eye contact with drivers, and for fucks sake dont jump out in front of a truck just cause a bunch of other people did.

Was that journalism or poetry?

I liked the "head split open" reference. "Someone said" is more powerful than "I saw"...

Also I ate both of the hollow Godiva bunnies and i felt so fuckin' sick afterwards I couldn't work for an hour.

I think the moral of the story is not "don't jaywalk" but rather, don't eat all the 1/2 price Godiva bunnies at once.
