I was in the mall today and now the floor is very spacious several people could walk past eachother in it without any issues. However, today, there were a group of several middle aged people walking towards me blocking the whole floor. I was just on my own, and not a single one moved slightly to the side so I could get past them. See I would politely get out of their way, but they literally took the whole space up and there was no where for me to go.
I was appalled by their selfishness. And the 40 year old guy who was directly in my path was looking right at me, I was hoping he’d slightly move so I could squeeze past. I was either going to literally get trampled on by them all or they would all literally barge right into me and it would hurt a lot. So I just forced myself past this guy in my path, he didn’t even flinch or try to move a little, surely if you have a brain you would move slightly so you don’t hit eachother? Anyway, ended up barging right into him, pretty sure my elbow window into his side and I heard him swearing so I assume it hurt. What is wrong with people? what do you do in these situations?

I am 72, an old hippie, most of us are convinced that getting along with folks is the key to survival. Woodstock, No video games. 40 year olds have a different attitude. Video game mentality. If it gets in your way blow it away. Domination. Many people criticize me for my power through yielding attitude. The objective is to achieve your goals without raking yourself over the obstacles. Just step aside. Even a farmer will avoid cow manure.
Cause their parents didn't do a good job teach them some manners. I'm probably in top 1-2 % of muscular guys and I will get ahead or behind someone to make room for others. I'll also add that I'm Hispanic and sadly the ghetto Hispanic and Black guys tend to be the worst at getting out the way. I try and be nice even though my shoulders would clear out the obstructions ahead but sometimes you got to educate them
I say excuse me can I get past
