What’s worse is old ppl causing traffic around 11am because it’s happy hour for Wendy’s you’ll see 5 senior citizens deep in a crown Vic doing 10 under the speed limit joy riding 😂😂
I had a boomer lady stop at the bottom of some escalators. I'm 6'6 and built like a tank. Let's just say physics always win. Then this Karen goes off at me and I'm like lady, I had nothing to do with you being dropped on your head as a baby.
You haven't lived until you've been to Costco during the "Free Sample Rush" when every pensioner and smoothbrain for twenty miles shows up just to abandon their cart sideways on the main drag to waddle over to another octogenarian and wait five minutes for a bagel bite from a toaster oven. It's just fucking incredible.
Lol couple weeks ago in Costco these idiots stood on the busiest corner of the whole store talking to their long-lost friends, in the middle of traffic, so I stand there in the middle of the aisle waiting for them to gtfo of my way, holding my head up with my hand on the cart staring at them for a good 3-4 minutes lol and then they have the nerve to look at me as if to say "whAt's yoUr pRobleM mAaan" Lmao then they looked at their surroundings as if they just woke up from a dream, got wide eyed embarrassed and they moved out of the way like puppies that just got slapped on the nose lol
No argument here. I detest the sample stations (feed zones), so I prefer to shop 30-45 minutes before closing since sampling is done for the day and the older set is already retired for the night. What bothers me is the families of 5 of a certain demographic that take up the whole F'n aisle with unregulated children hanging off the shelves or otherwise being a nuisance. No consideration of others. Holy chit if they see their cousins and start a conversation. Time for ear plugs. I suppose filling up with fuel afterwards and not waiting in long lines or having sketchy people hitting you up for "gas money" or other gas station/convenience store antics has a price.
It’s straight bot activity bro this shit is a video game I always wonder how the fuck these ppl made it this far in life I get headaches trying to process it
Bear with me on this one. I had an epiphany during one of my dozen or so trips thru Chicago O'hare airport. If you haven't been: Picture a 60 foot wide hallway with thousands of haphazard wandering clueless people punctuated by panicked rushers trying to catch their flights. The haphazards seem to be PURPOSELY just in the way every chance they get. Stopping suddenly, walking down the Left side of the hallway, walking in circles and everyone spreading out in an arm's length matrix of Obstacle. Here's the epiphany: I saw a small woman holding a VERY full diaper out in front of her and just walking straight ahead STARING at this diaper because she was barely keeping all 4 corners of this thing from spilling. And I saw all these previously clueless human obstacles BREAKING THEIR NECKS to get out of her way! They saw her coming and were DIVING out of her path. It was glorious. So if you want a crowd of ignorant SHEEP to wake the F up and do what is socially responsible. . .get yourself a diaper and a bunch of chocolate pudding or whatever and see how they react.
They have no concept of being considerate to other people. I had to travel with my dad a few times recently and 1) he has to have the AC cranked up to max so the noise and freezing cold of the AC makes it hard to sleep. 2) as if that wasnt bad enough, i had to share a bed with him and right as i was drifting off he would jolt his legs wiggling the bed and waking me up. Oh, and he ate some beans in the car for lunch so if his legs didnt wake me up, i would drift off and hear him ripping @$$ every 5 minutes. That happened for 2 to 3 hours while i tried sleeping. 3) then, he wakes up at 430 to 5 every day, so he ended up getting up then he throws his bag on the bed i am sleeping in waking me up. And then he talks to himself because he apparently has no internal monologue. Absolutely a savage and inconsiderate
My granny is the queen of inconsiderate, she recently fell sick and i came over to live with her clean her house cook for her even help her with toiletry but she didnt care whatsover had me running around all day with no thought for my mental and physical wellbeing not even a care.
It might be a function of age. When I was riding in the car while my father was driving (he was a WW2 veteran) he had to pick his nose and face every 5 minutes and drive at random speeds. By "random speeds" I mean that instead of choosing a reasonable speed and sticking to it, he would speed up a bit, slow down a bit, etc. for no apperent reason.
I wondered if it was a regional thing where I live. Glad I'm not alone. But I've noticed it's the 55+ crowd and the gravitationally challenged (who already occupy the space of at least two people) that I find blocking walkways in stores with their bodies, or driving lanes with their vehicles.
Thanks for the topic Cappy, this is one thing that sets me on fire in a store! I tend to go 45 min before the store closes on a weeknight AND towards middle/end of the month. I can’t always pull it off so strategically as sometimes I NEED to eat. You speak the truth sir!
I will never get offended if someone sternly tells me, "MOVE!" Most likely, I am sleep deprived and oblivious to everything. 12 hour shifts plus an hour in traffic kicks makes me go, "I can't brane anymore today, I haz the dumb!!" It's not helping that I barely get 4 hours of sleep each night either. Good thing my exposure to the public is extremely limited...
I call it the indecision portal. At the top of the escalator, at a doorway. at the end of an aisle you need to decide which way to go. Arriving undecided forces the low iQ to halt and demand a decision of themselves at the speed of dial up. When they lose connection the decision can't be made and they then remain frozen until a decision can eventually be reached.
omg....is this a global conspiracy?! It happend to me 3-4 times in the last 2 weeks where some old lady just takes up the whole isle while she thinks if she wants to buy something, but doesnt and moves 1m further down and does the same. I had a lady screaming I was pressuring her for wanting to go past her to get through the isle. The worst offender was a lady staying between the temporary fridge with whatever they want to put on sale now and the isle, so that only one cart can pass through, and just stand there....looking at that fridge for 1 min and not taking anything. It used to happen every now and then previously, but now it has become an every trip thing.
19:48 people already stop in the middle of places to read messages and take photos, likely selfies. No effort to go to the side of whatever aisle, doorway, street or parking lot it is.
My boomer Dad absolutely hates people stopping in the middle of the aisle and just talks to other people for no reason. He’s a guy that absolutely hates shopping and just wants it get to get it over with and go home. I picked up his habits so much so I hate people that do it as well.
This topic is why I appreciate and have mad respect for arron, the man is describing the frustration I go through far too many times in my daily life. Thank you brother
The *hypocritical* parenting generation. It kills me to this day that the same mom and dad who trained me to chew politely with my mouth closed are smacking and wolfin' down their plates. And if you call them out on it, you get the "huh? No I wasn't! Was I?" Or "how dare you speak about your parents like that!"
If you think that these people are bad in the aisles of Walmart you should see the black teenagers walking a wide at amusement parks on the East Coast. Then they cut everyone in line waiting for the one dude who called them up there at the very front. You going to fight 47 high schoolers that are cutting you in line when you walk through metal detectors so you can't have a gun?
People go into stores with no idea why they’re in the store when I go I have a mission a list in my head and I’m in the store for 10min it’s like ppl have nowhere to be it’s crazy I was thinking about this wondering if you’d ever address this topic 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
One of things we learned in bizzarostan was to stay in the middle of the road when driving as the roadside is where tali liked to hide their IEDs, until they started to dig holes in the center lanes for them!
This isn't exclusively a boomer problem tbh. Go to any salsa dancing festival and the doorway to the ballrooms is full of oblivious milennials/Gen Zs standing obliviously in the doorway at any given time during the party.
where i live it's women 95% of the time, they stop in the middle of sidewalks, passages or other places that inconvenience other people. and if you see a parent dropping kids to kindergarten and parking the car in the middle of the damn road, instead of being considerate towards other drivers - let's just say that the driver's gender is easy to guess.
I go slow in shopping areas because it's a meditative experience for me. However, I don't try to be in anyone else's way. If you came up to me in a hurry, I would try not to be in your way.
dude... simple rule... don't push a cart around the store and it's pretty easy to get around... just park your cart on the main aisle then walk down one row and back up the next row, move your cart and repeat... it's not rocket science to figure it out... unless of course "you're one of them".. (your gray bread and crackly voice kinda gives it away though... maybe ya otter head down that "ol folks aisle and get some that "just for men" stuff
