New local scandal is an old woman who will walk down to her mailbox in her robe, then, when no cars are driving by, lay down next to her mailbox as if sheβs fallen or been hit by a car. Tourists will stop, help her up, and walk her to her house. Then, after they leave, sheβll repeat this until sheβs bored with it.
Her neighbors have called the cops a bunch but have been told that itβs not illegal to fake being an old lady in peril so soft-hearted tourists or newcomers are nice to you. One of the neighbors sometimes yells βoh, get up, Lois!β at her. But overall local sentiment is that this is at least somewhat enviable levels of not giving a fuck.
