I’ve lost count of the number of times that I’ve literally had to jump into traffic to avoid getting run over by a swarm of “I Love Boston”-sweatshirt-wearing, stupidly-grinning visitors from Podunk who take over an entire sidewalk. I’ve had it with the guy setting up a 15-foot-wide tripod in the middle of a gate...
