      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.

        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. And yes, I return the damn trolley every time.

          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.

            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?

              We’re all on the same side here — on Lemmy and the Fediverse.

              This is something I care about.

              I want people to abandon corporate social media and I want them to support and use Federared options run by cool people.

              That’s you.

              That you spend your time worrying about carts is not really relevant to what connects us.

              I just want to let you know that I can be courteous and professional and interested and interesting and still believe that carts are not a big deal.

                The topic of this post, on the memes community, is shopping carts. I think it is an okay place to share our opinions about lazy people.

                    They just pass the cost back to us, genius. You’re lazy for not returning the cart and lazy in your justification.

            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.
