Reply #24: I hate it when people block the isles [View All]

[Pithlet]

But I hate people who would ram their cart in retribution even more. There's no excuse for that kind of behavior. It's annoying when people block the isle, but I'm not going to let them get the best of me and become the kind of unhinged person who does that sort of thing. No one is perfect. Everyone has habits that annoy other people. It's a part of living among other human beings. Paris' behavior was far worse than isle blocking. The thing to do is mentally imagine in your head you're ramming the person, then suck it up and go back and around the isle. The extra exercise helps.

ETA there is nothing ageist about it. Paris is lucky she didn't knock the lady off balance and break her hip. Then she'd be looking at assault charges and a fat civil suit. Older people often can't hear as well, and are often frailer then younger people, and there's nothing ageist about keeping that fact in mind when deciding to act like a civil human being.
