Almost run over by an obeast So it's snowing/hailing and I'm carrying 15pounds on my back while jogging to quickly get to my destination. I come to  a crosswalk with a big yellow sign saying "yield to pedestrians". So I wait for the traffic to thin out before I start to cross. Everybody stops like they should, except for this old looking van. I look into the driver's window to see two ton Tonia behind the wheel with her face in a burger King bag. If I wouldn't have stopped/noticed her I'm pretty sure I'd be dead right now.
