If you're walking into a drive thru, DON'T WAIT. Walk in the exit, straight up to the teller's window, explain you're asthmatic and can't wait behind car exhaust. The people in the cars will not hear you.

Not one should have to stand in that shit.

So, be an asshole? What's it like being the only person on the planet?

It's being a counter-asshole. The real asshole was the original designer who decided everyone would be in cars.

You don't have an air conditioned car that can recycle your air for you. So yes, be an asshole. There are times when it's necessary to defend yourself.

Yeah, weird some asshole thought everyone would be in cars in a DRIVE THROUGH ATM lane.

I agree with your final sentence, but this scenario is not one of those times.

Yes, without presenting any options for people walking, when obvious people who walk also use the bank/money. IT'S POSITIVELY STUPID.
