What the hell is "jaywalking"?
the action of crossing a road somewhere where there’s no pedestrian crossing, or while it’s not the pedestrian’s turn
it’s a word that was invented by car lobbies to turn something done by humans for millennia (cross a road) into a shameful action, and in some places, a crime
Jay is also an old timey slur akin to hillbilly or redneck, a way to call someone uncouth
walking like a small blue bird
make sure it's the right bird, you find want to get fined for titwalking
yeah, wouldn't want to get caught blue-footed making a booby like that
