I simply answered "no, you have to know it's there". I would have had a Never Ready front lamp at that time. The answer satisfied her and we didn't engage in further conversation. Don't make assumptions. Are you ****ing blind or something? Are you stupid or something? I doesn't occur to you to wonder why a woman might be standing in near darkness waiting to ask someone? She was out walking her dog, saw the bollard, saw the cyclist, and assumed he was blind? No. It is not possible to convey the tone of the conversation in text but I'm surprised it is needed. I know it's difficult but you should try to distinguish real world from newsgroup world. Should you go outdoors the sky will not fall on your head. |
