“Slow down, baby.”

Jun 23, 2011 | Posted by User Submission |

I was jogging in Columbia Heights and passed two men. One of them said “slow down, baby.” Slow down? I’m jogging! Sheesh. I firmly said “that’s inappropriate, please don’t say that” and jogged away. The man had a not so happy retort, but I couldn’t hear over the music from my headphones.
