When someone stops for you at a crosswalk do you…

Pick up the pace a bit? Do you add a quick wave?
If not, I hate you.
If not, I hate you.

Just like when someone holds the door open for me, I’ll pick up the pace a little bit as to not have them waiting

It always seem to be the same demographic that slows down as they walk across and never waves. They act like they are owed every bit of time it takes them to cross

I have noticed that most drivers today have zero idea that a no light crosswalk is a stop sign if pedestrians are present. You are taking your life into your hands walking across one if there isn't a light there.

i watch folks blaze through the crosswalk at the Rouses in P'ville without slowing down and a lot of times never looking up from their phones.

I also give them a nod to let them know what they did was appreciated.
I'll also wait before crossing if I see them coming I don't want to be the cause of slowing anyone up.

The old Broussard Hall athletic dorm crossing conundrum. Say 2 LSU basketball players are walking across, not only do they stare at you without expression as they cross, but they measurably slow their pace. Whereas as 50-year-old man might speed up and wave. It tells you a lot about who they are and how they view you..

I drip my pants to my ankles and proceed to teabag the hood of their car to establish dominance.

Quick wave and quickened pace, of course.

If you don't like Asians, just say so.

I usually flip them off for not going faster..

Always thank them. There’s not enough common courtesy in the world nowadays.

Both

I feel obligated to at least power walk and give the " I'm hurrying" wave.
Posted on 5/1/24 at 1:05 pm to Wildcat98USA
I wave them through so they can walk across
Posted on 5/1/24 at 1:08 pm to Wildcat98USA
2 jog steps a quick walk and a low wave.

I do, because it is the polite thing to do.
But not everyone is polite. Some even seem to slow down and never acknowledge you -- almost like it is an entitlement.
