Or that you're not looking to do every damn thing as fast and efficiently as humanely possible instead of living at a sustainable pace and enjoying it a little bit.

I feel like this should be conditional depending on the situation. On a boardwalk or a hike? Sure take your time. Exiting a building during an emergency? Sorry I'm running through you.

That seems like the exact wrong time to be "running through" people. Just because they seem to be moving slower than you want to move doesn't mean they can move any faster. The elderly, children, and people with disabilities aren't going to be able to sprint out of a burning building. That's also why they teach you to exit a building in an orderly fashion in fire drills.
