Hey dmc I know you are just kidding about: "On you (sic) right." right?

I seriously am dyslexic... I've actually turned into people who give me the "on your right" bs.... I have a deaf friend that has collided with people who've said "on your right" as well...


I'm making a point here....
I'm left handed or sided as one can choose the way to explain it. I have to think out any direction like that. It's mainly because this is a right handed society. So I turn to look and all of a sudden the sides are reversed. Oh, my lord!!! Now, get into left-handed tantric!!!

Great point!

But sometimes - I find - skiers stand around at the top chatting.. I try and skate past them to get to a place to strap in... But I don't want to pss anyone off by pushing through... So I tend to take the path of least resistance...

I do ask them to move but usually i get a nasty look...

You have a great point there. I don't, typically, see riders standing around in front of the lifts or at the top of the lifts deciding where to go. Many skiers tend to congregate around these areas and not think about the fact people want to get to the lift or off of the lift. It's a constant battle to keep these areas clear or people.

As someone said, "A jerk is a jerk."
