This is routing from LaGuardia airport in NY, meaning the "walking" route has you taking a subway. Maybe the walking buddy is a local NYC thing meant for people who want assistance navigating the trains. I never see this on my app tho so it must have been a trial feature.

I’m hoping (praying) that since this is a shitposting sub, you and I both are just particularly gullible and this is not an actual thing.

I thought for sure it was fake until I noticed the map was my neighborhood 😂

[–] [email protected] 16 points 4 days ago

Ah yes, the escort service.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

About to rent me one

Why is the walking buddy holding hands? Are they letting you know Kevin is single and ready to mingle?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

I would like this

"Drop off" makes it sound like he'll carry you.

You know... There's a lot of women that wouldn't dare to walk alone at night. That white Kevin has been vetted by Uber and has a paper trail.

How about not just a white Kevin but an Armed Stacey, or a security guard Michelle.

of course, it'd probably cost MORE to get someone to walk with you because they'd have to not only drive there and walk but walk back.

Vetted by Uber doesn't really mean much.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

Especially because there's a huge industry for fake driver accounts so literally anyone can buy an uber 'employment'.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

How do they get by having their actual picture?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Guess people don't look too closely? nfi tbh.

If Jimmy shows up in a black Toyota Camry with the right license plate, that's one thing.

I'd like to think that if Jimmy is your walking buddy, you might notice these kinds of things, tho :)

[–] [email protected] 35 points 5 days ago (1 children)

For $7.50 I'd unironically use a walking buddy at least once

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

For safety in numbers, or talk therapy?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

That's literally the only reason to me. I'd be so weird for 20min that he'll talk about it for a decade.

Them: white Kevin

You: dressed in a full body banana costume while awkwardly carrying a cinder block. Refuse to explain why, or talk about anything except a ranked list of the worst smells you've ever experienced. Destination is a closed public library at 2am. Say "well, it's time to do the thing I came here to do." Stand, watching them until they walk away.
