Sonic Youth Gossip - View Single Post - apparently it is now illegal to wear headphones while crossing a crosswalk

honestly, thinking about it, i don't think they're gonna enforce that law, just putting it in the books so that when someone hits a headphone-clad jaywalker (that's the american term for someone wandering randomly in traffic), then it's their fault not the driver's. really they can't be checking everyone's ears-- earbuds in the corpse sounds more like what they're after.
