In London England, people, for whatever reason, tend to walk on the wrong side of the sidewalk. Everywhere else in the world, people generally walk on the same side of te sidewalk that they drive their car on. Maybe it's because they are so posh. Maybe it's because the Underground, or The Tube (lah-dee-dah!) helps to confuse people by telling them to stand on the right on the escalators while people overtake them on the left, but then in the walking tunnels and bike lanes tell them the opposite. Whatever it is, one London, L. Boyle, caught wind of this from a Canadian and invented a law: Boyle's Law - walk on the same damn side of the sidewalk you drive on. Cut the shit or you're getting a shoulder.
