Same logic applies to Cis, straight and white. What is it with trolleys and problems? Ban all trolleys imo

Tbh that works less well in the U.K. because if you don’t take your trolley back here you lose your quid

When the trolley thing comes up I often see retail workers posting, "Hell yeah I loving love putting the trolleys back in the bays, it gets me out of the shop and away from customers for a bit." I'd still put it back though. It just feels hosed up not to.

I like to stand a long way off and send it from a distance with power, spin and curve to account for camber, slope and any wonky wheelage I will have spent the trip assessing.

Launching the trolley back into the bay is great. Always puts me in mind of an astronaut jumping in zero G between two shuttles. Only the initial push to give direction and the float towards the destination fuelled by hope. The price of failure: disaster. As if Waitrose don’t have the quid too. I might have to go to the one near me and see for myself. That might be my weekend activity.

The people who should be rounded up and shot are the ones that throw the trolley in the bay and then it rolls back out again into nearby cars while they walk off.

Hitting a good curve shot into the trolley shed accounting for a wonky wheel is what I can only assume winning Olympic gold feels like.

Communist Thoughts posted:Yeah I don't think it's all manufactured but I do think some of it is cynical. I think this is the take except that it isn't manufactured or cynical, it's just honest idiocy. Jones is pretty emblematic of Green higher ups, it's so obviously true that men are significantly more violent than women that if you spent a few hours reading studies you might well daydream about an evening, perhaps once a month, where it is only women and men stay home, but then anyone with half a brain would realise how ridiculous and unworkable that is but still, the idea right!? "Curfews for men" even taken tongue in cheek, even delivered in the Lords not the Commons, absolutely just materially helped Police organisations get off the hook, it achieved absolutely nothing except ensuring culture war bilge would cover all discussion of the Everard case. It's virtue signalling while actively hurting the chances of any meaningful positive reform happening, Green Party leadership writ large.

I had a lot of fun even though the game clearly accelerates after the initial portions where you could only be in space for a minute at a time before suffocating compared to the later game where you can basically free float without a fuckin' care and then never go into space outside of your spaceship again.

I loved that in New Zealand, they call trolleys "trundlers". The trundler problem sounds a lot less intense.

Thanks for reminding me to check this out! I really hope the police for once exercise a modicum of restraint in regards to the protests tomorrow. I’m genuinely worried for those attending, full solidarity to them. Who am I kidding though, we’ll get the usual heavy handed authoritarian bullshit. gently caress the pigs. Scum, every last one of them.

The Sainsbury's near me doesn't seem to require the poonds because the apartments here are always loving littered with them in the stairwells and outside. They're the main source of consternation in the local Facebook group. I can see through the window that my neighbours have 2 of them inside their living room. Either that or its cheap storage furniture for £1 a pop and a particular aesthetic.

yeah the houses around one of the places i work in all seem to have their own personal shopping trolley parked outside lol i always go to the supermarket late and there's usually a bloke wrangling the abandoned ones at that time. he sings and talks loudly to himself. i wouldn't abandon a trolley unless i had an emergency phone call from a family member, or diarrhea i like this trolley chat because they're a fascinating artefact if you think about it. I remember they played a large part in at least two of Terry Pratchett's books

Is there a 24/7 babestation channel or something I thought it was the kind of thing that only appeared at specific ungodly hours when you were 12 and watching TV with the volume down at 2 in the morning.
