Normally, pedestrians are kind and move out of my way when I signal to them, but occasionally there are those who purposely block the way just to annoy me. Does this ever happen to you?

For those of you who've never ridden on the sidewalk, I'm sure you know how sometimes pedestrians can walk onto a street and get in your way, knowing full well you're coming.

It annoys me...
Your equating your riding on the sidewalk and them annoying you by being there to them wandering into the road? Please tell me I'm misreading this...
