  I watched someone in a Costco parking lot shove his cart onto one of those berms at the end of a row, very obviously about to walk away from it. I was already frustrated, so I walked over and basically yanked it from him, saying something to the effect of “no don’t worry I’ll get it” in a very “you’re part of the problem” tone.

  It felt nice, I’m not gonna lie.

    Sounds like the other guy didn’t have to do Costco’s job, and you got to feel smug and superior without any real reason. Win win win

      Maybe don’t be an asshole by lodging it on a berm behind another car and just walk the extra 20 feet to put your fucking cart in the corral.

        Oh I didn’t do that. You’re confusing me with the person you met in the Costco parking lot. But I am not them!

      Do you throw crash on the ground because it’s the custodian’s job to pick it up?

        Can you explain why you believe this analogy is valid? I don’t think you can, but I’d absolutely love to see you try.

    My local Costco recently removed the coin locks. Almost immediately, trolleys were fucking everywhere except in the bay.

    The coin locks never bothered me because I have a pick for them on my keys.

    Yes, smug self satisfaction at the expense of others feels nice. You do you bro.

      Of all the things to get your panties in a twist about. Oh, world’s on fire, I’m going to make cart etiquette a big thing.

        Exactly, the world is on fire and www are verging ww3. People that can’t do the bare minimum can’t be trusted in current times.

        Yeah, etiquette is important. I’ll tell you off for queue jumping too, if you like. Did your parents not teach you to pick up after yourself? Do you need to be sent back to kindergarten?
