when you walk do you drag your feet so low that your heals hit the ground as they move forward?

And what I mean is when someone walks and they move their rear foot forward, as their foot passes underneath them, they drag their heal on the ground before planting it on the ground infront of them. And they do it with every step.

Just curious if anyone here walks this way, and if so, why? Also if other people do it, does it bug you?

There is this guy at my job who sits in the office next to me and everytime he leaves his desk and walks down the hall i can hear him, and i can hear him coming from a mile away. he looks like he's basically going to fall over as he's walking to, and since he's dragging his tennis shoes on carpet it's pretty loud.

Oh, and no I don't walk this way and yes it bugs me when people do.

I honestly think its an attribute of low self esteem, similar to how people stare at the ground and wont look forward when they walk.

well i DO work at a software company, and it's funny how 90% of the people who work here will not make eye contact as you walk by them in the hallway. I think like 98% of the time I am the first person to say "hey" while passing someone, if they are even looking at me.

:music:
seesaw swingin' with the boys in the school
and your feet flyin' up in the air
singin' "hey diddle diddle"
with your kitty in the middle of the swing
like you didn't care
so I took a big chance at the high school dance
with a missy who was ready to play
wasn't me she was foolin'
'cause she knew what she was doin'
when she told me how to walk this way, she told me to

walk this way, talk this way
walk this way, walk this way
walk this way, walk this way
walk this way, talk this way
just gimme a kiss
like this!
