People stand in the way chatting and don't move! So annoying! I'm sure I've been struck by the invisibility curse as people never seem to be able to see me but it angered me more when I was pregnant (how can you not see me with a huge bump?!) and even more now I have my baby. I won't be walking on the road just because you feel more entitled to stand in the way gassing.
If you're in the way and don't move you'll get the pram at your ankles.

'Oops, sorry I didn't see you'

feel better after a rant 😂

Or just say “excuse me” and pass them?

@Sirzy I do .. but a lot of the time that's a nightmare too as being invisible people can't hear me either 🤷🏻‍♀️😂 but I thought that it's common courtesy to step out the way or if you're having a chat stand in a place that's not in the way? But a lot of people I come across are unaware of that 😅

Folk who congregate just inside the entrances to shops and don't realise they're in the way because they're so self involved really piss me off. Have some common courtesy and move to the side!

I hate it too. I have a ‘three then barge’ rule. I’ll say excuse me, if there is no response I repeat slightly louder, i’ll repeat for a final time louder again. If still no response I walk past in a straight line from my original route even if it means barging people. I hate doing it but after asking three times i’m Not sure what the other options are.
