Tip from person with short legs: if someone is walking faster behind you, move to the side and slow down to let them pass at their speed. You’re welcome fast walkers.
Kind of. I do wear earplugs every now and then when I’m on bicycle because I don’t like how loud the cars passing me can get. But otherwise I’m “rawdogging” moving around in the world.
I’m not gonna gatekeep! And I do have the same problems. Small monologue here: My grandmother who survived the 2nd world war, she always said I needed to wash my face and behind my ears. And I never took her seriously. Now that I’m a lot closer her her age when she said that I finally get it!
If we’re walking together, can I give you a piggyback or something? It’s death walking somewhere for a purpose and taking like 50% longer to get there because your friend/partner/whoever doesn’t walk 6 km/h.
6 km/h should be default. 1 km/10 mins just makes estimating arrival times perfect (1.5 km is 15 mins). And it’s not that fast even.
ROFL! Just go ahead, save me a seat. My spouse and I can’t go hiking with certain friends because not only are we slow, but we stop to admire little things like moss, mushrooms and bugs.

This only works if the other person has situational awareness.
Do people even walk around alone without something in ears nowadays?
Hi!
Hello friend!
Another, “listen to the world” person. Nice

Does a week’s worth of dandruff and wax count?

That rules out…nearly everyone
Yeah… Situational awareness kind of a requirement for short people.
You’d think hitting our heads would give tall people situational awareness but nope
I just stop and let them pass me, to be sure.

Oh that sounds lovely.
I will say, if you’re walking for the purpose of walking (and not getting somewhere), I’m happy to stop to smell the roses
OMG your like a unicorn. I’ve only heard tales of your kind.
