I'm guessing this is slightly tongue in cheek, but I'll bite anyway in the interests of decoding the hidden social rules :P * considerate: walking in the middle, but fast * considerate: walking on the side * considerate: walking slowly or multiple people abreast, when there's enough room * considerate: walking slowly or multiple people abreast, when there's no room, but paying attention behind you Really, you (in the general sense here) have all these easy options to be nice, but you'll refuse even the most minor inconvenience? Also, I'm not being inconsiderate for wanting to get somewhere - that's what most roads are /made for/. Roads made for leisurely strolling are made wide anyway. And it's not like I'm ramming through - I also do my best to avoid bothering the people I'm passing by. I'm taking the effort, so why shouldn't you? Inconsiderate would be me pushing through or telling you to make way when there's already room. Sometimes a simple "scuse me", without even a frustrated tone, elicits the grumpiest responses so mostly I just walk slowly behind and don't even bother asking. Anyway, this is longer than I even thought I would consider this issue!
