Don't be a lazybones

I am extremely intrigued by this. Is it possible to know more?
- When encountering an aggressive shopping cart, remember:
  Shoot off a limb and they're still 86% combat effective. Here's a tip: Aim for the nerve stem and put it down for good..
  
  What part of a shopping cart is the nerv stem? The coin thingie?
  The only good shopping cart, is a dead shopping cart.

A mark of a true gentleman is the consideration that they give to others without anyone forcing them to do it.
- I, too, wait until im outside the frozen yogurt place to fart up a storm.

If you see two out in the field, drag two back and use one for shopping, saves at least an extra life per turn.
I'm doing my part.

A friend of mine worked at Target and he said the best part of the day was collecting carts.
EDIT: I guess I'm lucky to live where the "cold" in the winter is in the 50s, and the "hot" of the summer is in the high 80s.
- Your friend lied or y'all don't live in the south bc I fuckin HAAAAATEEEDD that shit
  
  Hey it's that or customers, I always wanted the trolley job. Only got to do it once when the usual guy was sick. Didn't have to talk to a soul, could use my iPod. The day went so much faster.
  
  Especially in the heat of summer. I feel bad for the cart wranglers when I see them going around the parking lot in the middle of the day.
- The thing is, you still have to have someone collect them even when they're in their proper spot you just don't have parking spaces that could have had a car them filled with a shopping trolley, or trolleys rolling off and hitting parked cars. You also make that trolley guy's day better by not making them have to pull the trolleys from places they aren't supposed to be.
  I used to work at a supermarket and agree that the trolley collection was by far the best job but I still hate those motherfuckers that leave their trolley just anywhere especially in otherwise valid parking spots.
  
  If less cars are able to park at the shops that's a win. We need to get people out of cars.
- Greatly depends on the time of day, and the environment.
  Cool breeze and an off hours so things are quiet and still? Yeah that's not a bad way to spend 15-45 minutes. Middle of the summer when it's 85F (30C) outside or middle of a downpour freezing water? Not so great. And don't even get me started on blizzard conditions or people shoving carts up onto the grass cause the extra 20 steps to the cart corral was just too much.

Based and cart-pilled

shopping cart logic also applies to buying fairtrade coffee or chocolate or clothes, no one will force you to be a good person and you gain jackshit from it as a lone operator.
- The shopping cart one is better because it's literally just barely more time / effort. Fair trade stuff can be expensive compared to their counterpart. People in rougher financial situations really can't make that choice every time.
  
  alright then dont buy it, youre acting like coffee and chocolate are necessities. clothes are a pass

- He got the spirit.

Funniest thing I’ve seen lately.

I've heard a counter to this argument, some comedians also.
Basically, creates jobs for cart collector and for people to pick up cloths and random stuff left around.
It.was a funny take, but not sure how true or false it is...
