The folks who are too lazy to put a shopping cart in a cart return or back to the store.

I always put mine back. I thought you might have meant the pigs who block the aisles inside the store. I always use one of the small carts, so maneuvering around the big ones isn't always that big an deal for me, but OMG, some of them take up an entire aisle, or pull a double-wide, i.e., park one large cart next to another large cart in the same aisle, such that no one can get by. I'm not going to say what I think should be done with those fools.

I see these people all the time, mostly girls at the store I shop at. Going all over the parking lot getting carts people just leave out there. Sometimes the wind blows them around, into other vehicles. I always put the cart away, even if its raining. Walk a few feet and put them away.
I hate the people that park right at the front door of the grocery store, with lines there that say no parking, with their hazard light blinking. I mean you have to walk around their vehicle as you come out the door. Too lazy to park and walk. Then you see their fat azz walk out. No wonder your lazy azz is soo fat. NEWS FLASH! If where you park you have to have your hazard lights on. You probably shouldnt park there. And put the phone away as you are checking out. We see you have a phone and think you are important.

LOL, this thread is fun. Any other shopping fools we should rant about?

And..... on the Cosmic Annoyance Scale, where should we rank these PITAs?

Here's my ranking (most annoying being the number 1 spot):

1. People who park in the loading zone right in front of the door
2. People who park in handicap spaces
3. People who block the aisles inside stores
4. don't return shopping carts
5. Cell phone sallies in the check out line

Is his office a green building?

the first 4-5 right outside the doors at a new sheetz by me for instance.

im assuming they are there so people don't have to walk around giant hummer and box trucks as they are walking back to their cars in other spots or at gas pumps?

There's a reason for that rule. They don't want large trucks, SUVs and vans blocking the workers' view of the pumps.

I think parking in a handicap space when you shouldn't should be #1. After all, it's breaking the law.

Doubtful. I was just expressing surprise.

I'll park my gas guzzler in one of them the first time I see one!

I hope you get a $50 ticket.

I love those hybrid/green car parking spaces. They're up front & usually empty & I know there's no actual law that you can get ticketed for parking in them
