Women.

Please note the following:

It is possible to walk at a reasonable speed and talk at the same time.

It is also possible to conduct a conversation without having to stop to look at the other person to gauge their reaction to the meaningless bks you are spouting.

Understanding and implementing the above in conjunction would mean that those of us behind you on the stairs might get to our desks BEFORE OUR fkING DINNER GETS COLD.

Just ask if she'd rather walk at a pace that is deemed acceptable, or tumble down the stairs at a rate you decide.

If you are in a hurry why would you want to get passed?

Two scenarios:

1) Bloke at till in shop:

Shopkeeper: That's £4:50 please
Bloke digs in pocket, hands over a fiver, puts change in pocket.
15/20 seconds.

2) Woman at till in shop.

Shopkeeper: That's £4:50 please
Woman looks surprised. Opens handbag. Digs through handbag. No purse. Woman empties the inexplicably immense contents of handbag on counter. Finds purse. Opens purse. Tries to construct 4:50 using as much small change as possible. Reaches £4:49. Opens another pocket in purse. Hands over a twenty. Places change in various places. Reloads handbag. Picks up purchase.

5 minutes.

That'd be because you're blonde.

And looking at your profile picture someone put your head on sideways.

Was in the docs waiting room the other day.

Two in their 50's having a conversation.

When I say conversation it was more like a high pitched shouting contest, with the occassional 0.5 second pause for a breath / cough.

Also, was once on an overnight flight, where I did not detect even a slight pause in the conversation (when I say conversation - see above) during the entire 9 hours flight duration.

I was like a random stream of thought with a direct link from brain to mouth without any filtering at all.

I remember going to see a play a while back.

Older couple behind us, early 50s. During the 15 minute interval the wife spoke CONSTANTLY, literally did not stop. The husband, obviously long practiced, just grunted a yes every minute or so.

THE WALK PAST, is the worst thing woman do.

Men see each other, walk together, slow down have a quick chat whilst still moving then pass on.

Woman dont see each other until they are right next to each other at which point they have to suddenly stop but normally they don't tend to stop unless they have a "surrounding" either a partner, trolley, friend, pushchair e.t.c but then it changes from a walk past to a road block. then before you know it another woman and her entourage see the road block and join it and before long you have a 10 strong wall of woman who wont move no matter how loud you shout excuse me!
