I saw a guy holding a "puppies for sale" sign on the sidewalk on Wisconsin Ave. Some lady (in a car) stopped to ask him about them and within five seconds (literally) three or four people were leaning on their horns. By the time the whole fifteen seconds she talked to the guy was over, there was a whole orchestra of horns blaring.
All she wanted was to know about some puppies. Don't we all still like puppies? And if the cagers honking at her had budgeted those fifteen seconds they were delayed for something else, they need to relax their schedules a bit.
