Okay but after seeing this I started doing it too and it’s amazing how many men I’ve run into bc they expected me to move

Gotta try it

I work (and walk) on a college campus. I’ve lost count of how many men I’ve smacked shoulders with.

Recently, I was standing outside my son’s classroom waiting to talk to his teacher. I stood on one side of the hallway, not even close to the center. At some point, a man came walking along. I was standing right in his path, but the hallway was empty, so I logically expected him to swerve around me. Instead he kept walking right toward me, got to me, and stopped, as if waiting for me to get out of his way. I didn’t; I just smiled politely at him. He finally walked around me, clearly annoyed that I hadn’t leapt out of his manly path.

Now I’m wishing I’d leapt aside, taken off my jacket and laid it on the floor before him, then bowed deeply and said, “My Liege!”

I also work at a college campus. I smack shoulders sometimes, but I find that if I stare straight ahead and follow the advice below, people get the heck out of the way.

Honestly this post changed how I carry myself when walking alone in public, or in a situation where I’m the one leading. People definitely move for the murder gaze.

Confirmed. I once had to rush back inside a convention hall as the con was closing in order to a retrieve a sick friend’s medication, and I didn’t understand why people in the crowd were jumping out of my way (literally—one guy vaulted a table) until I realized I was dressed as the Winter Soldier and doing the Murder Walk because that’s just how I walk in those boots. I got the meds, got out, and made a mental note.

I repeated the experiment later, wearing the boots but otherwise my usual clothing and mimicking the expression I thought I’d had at that moment. People parted like I was Charlton Heston.

I now wear that style of boots whenever possible. I recently had a man do a double-take as I walked by and ask me, politely, where I had served because I “looked like a soldier.” I’m not current or former military. I was wearing a flowy purple peasant top and looked as un-soldierlike as possible.

Moral of the story: wear comfortable shoes, square your shoulders, and walk like you’ve been sent to murder Captain America.

A guy on a bike went around me because he could tell I had no intention of moving. Thanks to this post.

One day and I bumped into a guy while doing the Murder Strut and he apologized to me even though I was the one who had bumped into him.

It works wonders.

In case you were wondering, yes you can do this in a wheelchair. Same look in your eyes and let ‘em know you will run them down. Just picture yourself in a sports car accelerating towards someone with the intention of flattening them.

If there’s anything more satisfying than watching Abled men leap out of my way when they realize I’m not moving for them, I can’t think of it atm.

Walk like you’ve been sent to murder Captain America.

Wheel like you’re gonna win the Indy 500 and don’t care how.

Your crutches are short swords; walk like you can see them buried in the bodies of anyone who crosses (in front of) you.

Patriarchy Chicken and The Murder Strut, dance names for the new millenium.

the best fanfiction you've ever read was written by a woman in her 40s before she made dinner for her kids. it was written by a teenager after school when they should've been studying for a history test. and a barista came up with the idea while they cleaned the espresso machine and busser fact-checked it on their break and the post-doc edited between writing grant proposals and the nurse apologized for typos in the notes after a long shift and behind every drabble and one-shot and multi-chapter fic there is a person with a wonderful and interesting and chaotic life and it is such a privilege that we get to be apart of it because they decided to do this thing we all share, for fun.

I’ve been really tired. Like, really tired and kinda burnt out. But I’m having a lot of fun on my passion projects.

I go to Tribeca this week. I’m very nervous about it. Not just the travel and stuff, but the idea of being somewhere I don’t belong in.

I’m worried that if I DO somehow manage to talk to someone about DZW at this film festival, I’ll be dismissed as a “blogger” at best, a freaking stalker at worst.

I don’t know what this is.

(The potato is Zach Woods.)

I was never born with the ability to half-ass things. It’s either “this will be fantastic and I’m putting everything into it” or it’s not happening at all.

Would I like to meet him? Yes. That would be really neat and I’d ask a quick question for the site. But I’m going to assume it’s not happening. I planned to be there for the film premiere. Then they had the audacity to book him for a panel and so I got a ticket for that. I have my notebook picked out.

Been thinking of questions for like, a month and a half. Writing, or trying to write. I guess I’m juggling a lot.

Which to me feels like ADHD going “lol” for weeks despite taking my meds. I started an overpriced drinkable supplement that honestly tastes great. Giving it two full weeks to determine if it’s worth keeping.

So I have about six posts planned and spent an hour-plus finding BTS photos. Loads of research. Heck, I submitted a correction to his IMDb page because I noticed and verified a mistaken credit.

I wish I could quit my job and just write and research Zach Woods nonsense. Alas.

This is just … fun. I feel happy. Which is very silly but I’m gonna try and not dismiss it. This is legitimate. It is okay for me to feel happy.

Anyway. Felt silly, might delete later
