I said for years that every second date should be to a grocery store. The first date can be as fancy and choreographed as the couple wants, but the second date needs to be to the grocery store.

You can learn just about everything you need to learn about a person from watching them at a grocery store. From how they chose a parking spot, to how they talk to employees, to how they budget, to how they prepare a list, to how healthy they eat, to how they check out, to if they return the shopping cart.

Never understood people who couldn't put the shopping carts in the cart return when they are done.

My first job at 15.5yo was the grocery store. I bagged and got carts for work when bagging could be plastic (newer), paper (common), or a combo of both (old people, usually). If you don't return your cart, fuck you! Now I live a few blocks from the same grocery store and return that shit to the inside of the store, grabbing spares sometimes if they're just sitting around in the way. It used to surprise me when someone didn't return it, then the last couple decades happened and it makes more sense. There are just some people who want to be a part of society and others who want to benefit from it while not contributing to it.

Is this one of these american things? I have never seen someone not returning the shopping cart.

I haven't seen a shopping cart without a coin slot for a very long time. Communist Europe does not have moral lessons for citizens!

For those that may have somehow missed it...

Ha! Let me tell you an anecdote.

My apartment building is positioned around 7 to 10 minutes walking distance to IKEA, a huge department store and a few small grocery stores. People would be fine dragging a IKEA/department store/grocery store cart for 10 fucking minutes being loud and an ass. And of fucking course they wouldn't bring them back.

Also, some of them would bring one INSIDE OF THEIR FUCKING APARTMENT and keep it on the balcony filling it with trash. In some cases, they would bring trash inside cart out to the trashcans (we have private that open only with our key) and leave cart with their trash at the trashcans.

On average, our apartments are expensive and most of our neighbors are wealthy enough to rent these apartments. Yet, we got swines all over our apartment block...

Edit: wanted to add that this is in a major city of an EU country.

I honestly couldn't car less about shopping carts. I want people to pick up their dog's shit for fuck sake

according to the meme, from now I see "returning the cart" as a fascist move

Ugh.. This clashes for me with what actually happens in the movie. You're basically saying only a good fascist returns the shopping cart.

But we all know, only fascists won't return their shopping cart. Monsters..

The real test of character is whether a person not just takes the cart to the cart return, but also tidies up the coral as well so that the carts are all pushed in.

Extremely specific contrary case (I always put my cart back, it’s fun when they accordion together), but my grandma appreciates the carts near the handicap spots because then she doesn’t have to get out her walker.
