Cool Crossing


Norway has a certain something, an indefinable class. Or so would seem to be dictated by their crosswalk signs.


Eschewing the more simple and pedestrian (nyuk, nyuk) stick figure with no hat, Norwegian towns have replaced it with a more stylish fella pictured. As you can see, he is donning a fedora.


He also seems, by the look of his hands, to be sauntering rather than merely walking. Like he might take a quick stutter-step and burst into 'Singing in the Rain' at any moment.


So, crosswalks in Norway draw only the coolest walkers, it seems. Amblin' hipsters, Rat-Pack throwbacks, crazy kat chickens just tryin' to get to the other side.

sign frightens me; feels like he's going to claw me with his bare hands in a dark alley
