Bastard.
You didn’t neatly insert the cart into the previous cart!
Do you know what you just cost Joe consumer??!

YEah…….HelLo. You went all the way without sticking it in? If everyone did the same you’d only be able to fit 4 carts in there. THen the ”Lazybones“ will have every right to leave carts all over the place. LOL

I always try to capture as many un-nested carts in the corral in one fell swoop and a large KEYRASH!

Tough day at the grocery store today...we found a parking space at the back portion of the lot.

This was the grueling walk I had to make, luckily I was able to take some work calls and text messages. View attachment 1096619

Then all hell broke loose, I realized that I needed my reports turned in by a certain time, but still made it a point to not be a lazybones. Definitely got my excercise in and thank gosh no one called me about having a late report. View attachment 1096624

See, now you done fucked up the cart dude. 2 different style carts. They don't nest together well at all. Kinda like IROCDave and whichever mental patient he falls in love with. Looks good at first but just leads to pain and anguish for someone.

When I was in high school, I might have been the guy that drove at high speed across empty grocery store parking lots late at night. It's conceivable a buddy of mine was in the passenger seat, hanging out the window and steering a shopping cart. It's possible said shopping cart was released a few feet from the concrete light pole bases, and theoretically it may have impacted the concrete and been destroyed.

It's also possible we were drinking.

I used the concrete light bases as chicane cones.
One fine evening after a fun filled night of working at the mall a friendly law enforcement officer honored me with his blue&red lights, told me(with finger wagging) to not do that every night I got off work. He also grinned at me and let on it's private property so he wasn't ticketing.

[redone76]

Well, I've never seen a store that had employees who's only job was to fetch carts. If they do, they must have a pretty fucking huge parking lot and a shit ton of carts! I don't think most stores can afford to pay someone just to fetch carts and do nothing else. Can you name a store that does so?

From now on every time I see someone fetching carts I'm going to ask them if that is the only thing they do.

This whole "I'm saving someone's job by not returning my cart" is just BS.

Plus, even if they do have a full time cart fetcher, they still need to get the carts from the coral back to the store so you aren't putting them out of a job!

I know of a guy who lived in a 3 story walk up next to a big building project. The project went at least 4 floors underground, I guess it was parking at the bottom. They had steel shoring around the perimeter and diagonal braces in the corners. This guy would take shopping carts up to the rooftop and roll them into t he pit at night. The sparks of the cart hitting the steel backing was impressive. I told them that they shouldn’t be lazybones and just take the carts back to the store like a normal person would. :looking:

Another lazybones sighting, I wish when carts hit my vehicles it was this gentle…

How to get rid of a homeless ZOMBIE right there

 

[just_floatin]

We use to set a shopping cart on its side and use the sidewalk driveway slope to launch and bunny-hop over them on our BMX bikes as kids. Good times on my Timmy Judge Thruster and Cooks Brothers frames.

I either want the spot closest to the door. Or I park by a cart return. It’s pretty much what I look for at the grocery store when I pull in.

Bigbore's parking process (why my wife hates going places with me)

This is a multi-step success plan. Do not skip steps!

1. Survey the lot upon arrival and find the high point. All parking lots are sloped for drainage. You wanna park at the "peak", and not in a "valley". Risk Mitigated - Loose cart from a lazy bones rolling, catching speed, and smashing your truck. Risk #2 Mitigated - in the event of wind, you are less likely to be smashed by a blown cart, as it must overcome gravity and travel up hill toward your truck.

2. Review area surrounding proposed parking spot - Is it congested? Is there a shitbox next to said proposed spot? Either look for a spot that is surrounded by a plethora of empty spaces, or that is right next to another anal guy who's truck appears well kept - leave extra distance to anal guys truck of course. The ultimate spot will have a concrete island on one side, offering a 30% risk reduction. Bonus points for a sidewalk behind the spot, which offers a 20% further risk reduction to being hit from behind (assuming you backed your truck in....cause that's how men park)​

​

3. Remove the errant cart(s) that are within 50'-75' of your new parking spot. If your lucky, there is only one and you push that one into the store to do your shopping. If there is more than 2-3, you wouldn't have parked there in the first place and you are most likely in a LOW AREA and you didn't follow directions (see item #1....)​

​

4. Check your six - as you walk away, be sure to look behind you a few times. You may see an unapproved vehicle pulling in next to you, and you can watch to see if they hammer your truck with their door.​

​

5. Hit door lock 3-5 times to ensure your doors are locked AF and everyone knows it​

​

6. Continue walking to store, probably 500' or more. If your closer than that you are most likely in a dangerous spot. Re-assess your lazy life and re-read item #2.​

Lol, the hand painted pinstriper we used on our inventory cars had stacks of those trays, he'd blend or mix his paints on them.

Pinstripers. My dad would always buy a white Chevy, and put orange pinstripes on it for The University of Tennessee. I swear if you went to an SEC School they brain wash the fuck out of you. lol. Everything we had was orange and white.

We used to do the same thing. Once the plastic started to melt through, you better make sure to be ready to jump on the bumper, otherwise it's going to hurt.

These Mac D Trays (and others the same) work great on front wheel drive cars in a wet or snowy parking Lot.Parking brake the trays under the rears, and you now have the
Trayshredder.Mammoth Canyon Lodge lot was infamous for this act of bravery.

We used to have an excellent striper locally , I once ask "how long it would take to dry" .... He waxed prophetically "oh about the time it takes to smoke a bong load of Colombian" also you had to stand by with a rag and solvent to take off all the "extra" that you didnt want

Soooo heres a question for this thread If everyone returned thier carts properly and the Cart retrievers all were out of a job , would the super markets hand the savings down to the customers ???? OR maybe at checkout they should say "paper or plastic and cart return or not" and charge accordingly"

I was at the Market W/ the family over the weekend, young kid "the bagger' asks me if I would like "Help" bagging, I was fucking floored,(my wife does the shopping predominantly) I said yeah pal bag away. Is this another abused policy from the china virus, you bag your own schwag....F that earn your dime son.

I can't believe this thread has gone this long . Easy way to fix the problem . Stores just get rid of carts and everyone can bring their own .
