I’m in such a bad place that even just chocolate coins would be amazing and a luxury right now. I used my last groceries yesterday, made into some frankenstein monster of random ingredients… but it’s something to eat, at least. It will only last till tomorrow, though, then I guess I’ll just starve and try to survive on water.
Also helps if you’re in one of those stores where the toilets are out in the open like it’s another regular aisle. Stack up some boxes and you can position it to give yourself some privacy. Bring along some bottles of water too since sometimes the faucets don’t work.
Used to wrangle carts and I didn’t mind the carts that weren’t returned to the corral that much, but I did greatly prefer it when they were at least hiked up onto a planter curb so they don’t roll away.
Yes! If I feel I’m too far from the cart return, I will at least put it somewhere safe. The whole point of cart return is to keep the lot clear for cars, assuming there are enough carts to go around
Definitions can range anywhere from “Effects a whole country” to “has spread to several large regions” to “threatens to affect the entire globe” but as a general rule the definitions shy away from saying global because then people will quibble about, like, Greenland not being effected because those bastards shut down the ports again.
So you could, for example, have a pandemic that spread through Europe and Asia but the swift and decisive actions of competent executives prevented the spread to the Americas.
In Spain you have to use a coin to detach a cart from the others.
Well, I have a homemade metal thingy than can release the cart without a coin AND I can pull the thing right back out so I don’t even have to leave it in the coin slot.
When I’m done I still leave the cart in the return area and attach it to the others. I don’t even leave it unattached for the next person, because some pieces of shit already leave carts around the parking lot somehow.
I’m a petty motherfucker and I wish the worst to those assholes.
Doesn’t work in America because the largest coin is a quarter (i.e. 25 cents), likely not enough to deter theft (or even laziness).
So instead, many supermarkets installed a system that locks up the carts’ wheels if they’re taken off the property, which makes them extremely difficult to push. Unfortunately, that also doesn’t help with laziness, so we still need memes like this.
I don’t need LED keyboards, but with open source software I can get that shit synced up with so many other pretty things like my computer LEDs, headset, speakers, aquarium, toaster oven, zen garden, and maybe even my mouse.
A little bit of an exaggeration, but younger me would totally rock a neon punk look if I had the budget for fashion, which I still don’t have.
