I'm walking so fast I can't even tell
Wait for me, will ya?
Here in Adelaide, Australia most of our malls are still here - probably got to do with the fact all our malls key stores just happen to be grocery stores, or Walmart style stores (sans groceries) like Kmart, Target, and Big W.
Although Myer centre in Adelaide's Rundle mall (basically a shopping street with no cars) is a bit dead on the top 3 floors - and has been for years now. It's ground and basement floors are always packed (food court in the basement) though.
I'm in California. We have many malls. I don't know what they are like these days. I haven't actually set foot in any for years. And I can walk to one!
Every mall I've been to since like 2018 has just been fewer and fewer shops that aren't rotating their same, boring stuff often enough.
And then Auntie Anne's pretzels, which always slap.
TBH, I can't remember the last time I went into a mall. :(
I remember at my mall cutting through a pipe tobacco store (90's shit) and later it was a coffee store (not like a Starbucks; they sold 🅱️EANZ). Always cut through it because not just faster, but because they both smelled fucking amazing.
Not just shortcuts, take longcuts through as well just to see what happens.
They built a wall at ours to stop people doing this.
This literally could be a picture of a mall I used to visit in florida, it's uncanny
I do this at gas stations when there's a line at the right turn lane
