I'm starting to think Everett might just be insane.

Don't block the fucking sidewalk. This is the same bullshit as when people stop for chit chat in the aisle of a grocery store catching up while I JUST NEED A CAN OF FUCKING CREAM OF MUSHROOM SOUP!

Get out of the way or I'm blasting you with my fucking cart Janice and Linda.

If "excuse me" doesn't work, blast away.

Recommend looking like an escaped mental patient in the thall of a disembodied voice, that always works for my human.

Man it fucking hurts to fire up my vocal cords.

Not everybody is aware of this because it isn’t true for everybody.

What about a bicycle horn? 🤣 (Sorry for your troubles, I don't mean to poke fun)

JUST TODAY, in the MIDDLE OF THE MAIN AISLE there’s a group of four with two carts completely spread out blocking THE WHOLE DANG THING like FUCK OFF EVERYONE I HAVE TIKKA MASALA TO MAKE

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

This is Safeway!

And then just blast the cart out of your way with a foot plant shove.

[–] NegativeInf@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

If only my local shops had a seemingly infinite hole to push people into.

It’s no problem to catch up, just so long as the pair gets the fuck out of the way.

It should be an automatic thing, when you stop literally anywhere, to immediate position oneself outside the flow of traffic.

But he's walking right down the middle, which is also bad.

This makes me think of Hotline Miami

What a game.

[–] clark@midwest.social 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Is this something I'm too gen Z to understand? Is it related to Miami Vice?

[–] magic_lobster_party@kbin.run 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Don’t make me feel old. It’s a game from 2012, which is just a few years ago.

It was essentially yesterday!

Never heard it said, "how is the world using you?" "Treating you" is how I've heard it. Interesting choice of words.

how ya living

Im sure I have no idea

Sometimes in my area, people passing on two lane rural roads will recognize each other, then stop in their lanes and have a friendly chat, driver's side window to driver's side window. The rural byway was quiet, until someone ELSE needs to use it AS a ROAD.

Took me a couple tries and I had to check where I was. "Why hello 3AM" was very confusing

I need this power in airports...
