Let's get back to the comic. I don't have this problem because I walk faster than almost everybody else in my school. However, if this did happen, I would bend down and pretend to flick a piece of lint off of my shoe, or act as if I saw a quarter on the floor.
ah, classic spinner here - his line can be used against himself yet he doesn't see it.
As time goes on, he becomes more and more like a dilbert character.
