My only issue with it is he doesn't know, and we don't know if he's actually just catching someone on the worst day of their life. Maybe they just got fired. Maybe their mom just died and they couldn't give less of a poo poo about returning the cart in that moment, even if normally they return it. Maybe that's why they blow up.

If they don’t return their cart, they deserve whatever happened to them

We had this discussion before and the consensus from retail workers iirc was that they enjoyed collecting the carts as a break from other work.

I dress up as a cart and place myself next to unsuspecting pensioners so the Cart Narc runs over and blasts an air horn in their ears until they go into cardiac arrest, then loot their body for Mint Imperials

Thats a good point, and everybody's getting paid hourly anyway so who gives a poo poo.

Hell some of them even have a quarter bounty attached.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

your coworkers will all feel differently about it and the boss has cameras everywhere but if you know who's around during your shift and who's watching, stray shopping carts are a great way to facilitate time theft

respectfully
I feel like that defeats the whole point of the shopping cart test. Like, the premise is "what will you do when the stakes are low and you cannot possibly get in trouble". Some weirdo turning it into candid camera is just a pointless and intrusive escalation.

Also, maybe don't harass random people or follow them to their house?? Sounds like a creep tbh

Every subsequent day of my life has been worse than the last since sometime in the mid/late 90's and I have never not returned a shopping cart.

Cart Narc is annoying but he highlights a salient issue pervading western culture; namely that we have lost all sense of social responsibility and are no longer willing to do the bare minimum in an effort to hold the fabric of society together.

I've had the worst days of my life, a complete surprise terrible breakup over the phone while I was shopping.

And I still put my cart back in the loving bin.

Putting carts on the island should count since it effectively stops carts from blowing into other people/cars, but he's gotten upset about that too so I'm gonna say this is closer to a youtuber playing the "I'm not touching you" game instead of somebody who cares about the public good

We went to the store last night and after we loaded up the car, my girlfriend turned the engine over and this lady made eye contact with both of us, walked her shopping cart directly up to the passenger side door maintaining eye contact, left it about an inch away from the car, broke eye contact and walked away.

We were parked next to the cart corral.

I'll return the cart if there's a corral near by.
But sometimes we'll be in a lovely spot in the carpark and there's none around so gently caress shopping center management, cart gets placed in the least in-the-way-of-a-car spot possible.

Cart Narc should be Narcing on lovely mall management more.

I just discovered this YouTube channel where a guy goes around calling out people who don’t return their shopping carts. Personally I think it’s pretty funny but some people say he’s monetizing harassment. He never really does anything other than put a magnet on your car though which as far as I know won’t damage it or anything. What do you think?

what do they do to people who leave rocky opioid turds in public bathrooms without flushing op?

I asked my wife who worked at a grocery store growing up and she said that's dumb. It's miserable and hard to wrangle carts if it hot or raining outside, in my head I was picturing a nice sunny day but it feels like poo poo outside then I could see it not being a good time

The faces he makes while posting are inexcusable! When he writes a post his face is like a troll double checking bones to see if there's any meat left! When I post I look like a peacock softly kissing a rose! Didn't his parents provide him with a posting mirror to practice forums faces growing up?
Getting cart narcd is like the most benign mormon schoolboy level of prankery, it's such a low stakes rib and a normal response whould be something like "ahhh you got me" instead of pulling out a gun or chasing the guy around a parking lot or something which is where the channel shines. But doing stuff like moving their cart behind their car so they can't leave feels too much like poking the bear to me. The bumper magnets are funny though

Don't watch the channel anymore but it is interesting to see others opinions on it especially from people who have worked in grocery stores

This. If you can't even return your cart to the designated area then you shouldn't be allowed to participate in society, you have given up any pretense of caring about other people. On the other hand you shouldn't chase social media fame by shaming these people.
