This was being covered on another forum. Thought it was interesting.





If you think about it, society has all kinds of litmus tests like this. What do y'all think about it?

another test is whether or not you're willing to outright lie, hide or at least shade the truth for money...

It's a pretty good test. At the Aldi near me, many people even leave the quarter they paid to get the cart in the cart, when they return it to the rows of carts outside the doors. Often there is 5 to 8 carts that were returned, with the quarter still in them. I do the same. Blacks and Hispanics are rare in my county, but twice I've seen black people and once I've seen a Hispanic person, plugging all the carts together and taking all the quarters. I've never seen a white person doing that.

We had a lot of little honor stands with garden produce, eggs, jams, jellies and honey in my area. Many are gone now. One of the owners told me they stopped because Hispanic people were coming and taking everything without paying. They put cameras up and turned the footage over to the Sheriff's department but nothing ever happened about it.

It amazes me how many slobs throw there trash including cigarette buts out the window or just throw it out period.

Took my cart back into Menards the other day then realized they go through the other cart doors. LOL The customer service lady said she would take care of it then.

My wife does the shopping

Had a few back surgeries and I was greatful for the "slobs" that didn't return the carts. I would park right next to it and use it instead of hobbling across the lot for one.
I always return it now that I'm healthy. And I vote.

There's always 2 sides to a story.

Are some people societies slobs? Yes indeed. But one of those carts could have been left by your 92 year old grandmother who was too weak and feeble to bring it back. If I see that type of situation I get the cart for them.

But I do understand your shopping cart analogy. Guess I just wanted to play the devils advocate

take a look around the entryways of many stores (especially in strip malls)...how many plastic flossers do you see?

I see them things in the strangest places, way out in the woods where you wouldn't think anyone has been in years, and here is a plastic flosser laying on the ground. What, are you hiking along and think, "you know what I should do? I should floss my teeth! Haven't done it in hours!"

If I gotta check myself out , buy a bag , bag my stuff .......I might be inclined to leave a cart in the back 40

Here's more.....

Shooting:

A) ducks on the water,

B) doves on the powerline, or

C) quail on the ground.

Not illegal, but a test that shows your true colors.

I think some hunters dip those flossers in doe urine or other scent and hang them in trees. I've seen sticky looking fluid on them. I also think hunters use them to mark distance. When I used to hunt public ground, I'd see those hanging on trails and near deer stands.

If more people shot ducks on the water the world would be a better place. I haven't shot a duck for 30 years but my record still stands with 7 ducks killed with one shot from a 410

Nice

Takes a lot of patience to group up that many heads.

When I was a teenager my dad told me that ‘if you’re too big to do the little thing you’re probably to little to do the big things.’

Sometimes I take it back to the store. If, I ran this country, people wouldn't like it.

...and here is the person that don't push the shopping cart to the cart corral. Probably wouldn't even consider returning the cart back inside the store......lol

Plus, depending on the duck species, you may have killed over the limit...so, you'd likely steal the shopping cart, too.....lol

Mr. Swamp, there’s something to be said for a spread good enough to make em land and not just circle or do a fly by. Just sayin’.

And I do return my cart

Not illegal, but neither is leaving the cart out in the parking lot....just sayin'.....Lol
