Do you shit on someone's internets message board thread for the sake of shitting?

9-out-of-10 I'll push the cart back to the cage or front of the store. But there are times I say fuck and prop it up on a curb. How to Know if You're an Asshole... 2599972566

People get paid to collect the carts. I once did myself 30+ years ago. In fact, it beat the hell out of bagging groceries and other bullshit that they'd make me do just to keep busy.

Leave your cart, keep people employed.

So simple instructions like "show me your tits" are ok then???

There's got to be some other way I can be an asshole.

Then why do "cart corrals" exist in the middle of parking lots???

This is not meant to be a complete list. There are an infinite number of ways one can be an asshole.

ah, good to know, I'd hate to think that my wife was wrong all these years in referring to me.

For some people on this board, the answer is yes because they find women to be of lesser value.

I always put my cart back, yet I know for sure that I'm an asshole. I think the real "how to know you're an asshole" is just "you are."

You're an exception. Lots of assholes are walking around out there completely oblivious to the fact that they're assholes. Also, stupid people generally don't know they're stupid.

They don't at the Publixes that I go to (I know some Publixes do have them though). I put them in the cart corrals when they have them, like Costco and Walmart. That still keeps the cart-getters employed.

This. But I wouldn't call myself an asshole. I open doors (dudes or ladies), put my cart back, generally give people the right of way, etc. But I would consider myself a dick. I think there is a difference.

I'm polite to strangers, and I hold doors. My mother raised me right. But maybe one man's dick is another man's asshole... That didn't come out right, but I think you guys know what I mean.

Meijer has the cart returns that have “small cart” and “big cart” rows and the people who put it back in the wrong row are worse than the people who don’t put it back at all.

Docking. Got it.

by **Rocinante** 2020-08-27, 13:18

I don’t hold doors for anyone these days. A sketchy dude walked up to me in the store yesterday and asked if he could ask a favor of me. I said no. fuck everyone but my family right now.

I imagine the cart guy just loves having to pull all the carts apart to get to the small carts randomly stuck in there.

Matt Damon!

A little behind the scenes explanation regarding the Matt Damon deal in that movie. Apparently the puppet's face ended up looking really off once completed so they changed all his lines to be... mentally challenged.

IMO an asshole is someone who has no regard for others. They go about their day with zero shits given on how their actions will effect the person or guy next to them. Assholes are easy to spot on the road. I'm overly courteous to people, especially strangers. To the point where it will piss my wife calls me out for putting others before her, and she has a point.

A dick is someone that can be abrasive or may say shit out of turn. Maybe be a bit of a hot head. Might even swear too much. I definitely check those boxes. I'm also very direct and been told I can be a little intimidating. Hence, I'm a dick.

Well that if just fucking stupid. And the person that designed that system is a dumbass.

I guess it’s better than having no small cart large cart label at all where it’s always just a mess of different sized carts. Labeling them gives some small chance of people following the sign

It is up to the cart return designer guy to come up with a system that will work given the known habits of the user. This is the equivalent of University presidents bitching that college students are going to bars and fucking up their back-to-school plans. Neither was apparently designed with the intended user in mind.

That's what the extra space is for. To put your cart.

What do you want them to do? Make a slot that’s only big enough for the small carts and not the large carts?

On second thought I guess that’s doable

I'm not cart rack designer Travis.

That sounds like a good idea to me.

I go to Kroger. Always use a check out person. When I’m done I always stop at those do it yourself lottery machines. I put a dollar in and press 518 straight evening. When I go to my car and unpack, I always walk my cart back because I say to myself if I don’t god/karma/juju will not let me win. I never win, well I did once, but I’ve probably paid those winnings back. But anyway, I do that fairly consistently
