I SAID I don't get them.

There's one about farmers and grain that
I take the wrong idea from too.

Back to the original, I notice that I push crosswalk
buttons too. I don't really use them - but hit them
anyhow - and then cross against traffic.

like a crosswalk button.

i told my daughter to not push the button going the way we just came from.
i said that we didn't need to go that way, and it may make the light change faster and cost some people a part of their day, if they barely miss the light, because of her action.


the point is, just because there is a button you don't need to push it just because it's there.  what might it cost someone else.

Where I live, pushing the crosswalk button does not make the light change any faster.  It just gives the walk signal the next time the light changes.

Where I am, it extends the length of time that
drivers have to sit idling. Some places, it does
nothing at all.

And what importance does truth have when you can make up your own truth?

A distant relative at that.... like a 4th cousin or something....
