I constantly get comments about how fast I walk. Like, it’s not a run or a sprint—I walk kind of funny but other than that it’s a normal walking gait, just sped up. I walk so fast that when I have it in me, I can keep pace with my friends when they’re on their bikes.

I also like listening to metal or hard rock while I’m walking, and matching my pace to the drum beat or something. It makes me feel awesome.

Yeah, to the point that it can be frustrating to go on walks with people (for everyone involved). I’m not ay all in good shape, but whenever I go on hikes my natural walking pace is apparently a death march for most people so they have to ask me to slow down and then I end up feeling kinda restless. It seems like people equate walking fast with not being relaxed, but idk, it’s just the speed I feel comfortable at and I walk that fast even if I’m strolling aimlessly.

I pass joggers regularly. My legs are fucking BUFF and carrying a fairly skinny and smol rest of my body. I’m built like a GEKKO from mgs4. My favorite job ever would be Guy That Has To Carry A Scroll From One Castle to Another

Yeah, for some reason all my friends growing up were rather tall, I think that’s where I get it from

I have the opposite problem… I have zero sense of urgency.

It’s got nothing to do with urgency at all for me, my normal walking speed is just really really fast. If there’s anything worth lingering for, I’ll just stop
