One More.....Grocery Cart Etiquette!

Your thoughts on the pains in the ass that feel the need to block a whole friggen isle with their shopping cart!!! They leave their cart on one side of the isle while they grab something from the opposite side....thus blocking the entire isle!!! Or the new trend.....pulling the friggen cart from the front instead of pushing.....pain in the butt people! Or when they get in line in front of you and then realize they forgot something right in the middle of being rung up and they run back across the f'in store to get what they need saying..."I will only be a minute"!!!! 7 minutes later they return and then realize what they got was actually not what they wanted and then they say "forget it"!!!!!!!!

I could go on....anyone wanna go shopping with me??? I hate it!!!!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Shopping carts should have those tricycle bells on them to announce your presence to those who chose to ignore you. Ding-ding!, ding-ding! until their heads pop out of their hinies and they move.

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.

yes I'd like to go shop with you to see how perfect you are so I know what I am supposed to do with my carraige when I want something on the other side of the isle.

Raven you're bringing a whole new genre of tactics to the supermarket experience. I am going to remember to incorporate animal noises, maybe some classic Monty Python or Three Stooges expressions, possibly Yosemite Sam, to the rude, obtuse, or otherwise plain old ignorant blocking the aisles. This could even embarrass members of my own family let alone the target audience. I'm so excited I almost can't wait to go shopping again.

Yes stay out of:

Supermarkets
Walmarts
Home Cheapo
Drunkin Donuts
Gas Stations
Vehicles of any kind
Any road I am on

Maybe you should just stay home ALWAYS !!!!! (except to go fishing)

Hey....Be nice....I'm the IT guy for that company. That little cart helps pay my salary.

I keep pushing for a Beach buggy version with a rod holder up front that holds snoopy rods....Not buying into it yet
