Totally fake and staged. The carts both need to be at a 45° angle to 100% block and not leave space to try to squeeze by.
The drivers who will stop and talk to each other on a two lane road are even worse. They see they are blocking traffic in both directions but keep talking.
Gosh, I thought this was a thing only in my area.
This literally happened to me a couple of weeks ago. I even honked the horn and they just ignored it and kept talking like they were the only ones on the road. Some people are just so oblivious.
Them: “Oh what a coincidence to meet you here!”
In my head: YOU’RE NEIGHBOURS, IT’S NOT SPECIAL THAT YOU MEET IN THE ONLY FUCKING SUPERMARKET AROUND HERE!
I have no problems saying excuse me in a loud clear voice and blasting right through the center of those conversations. Being a performer at the local Renaissance festival for 30 years teaches you how to blow right through crowds with people in the way.
Pretty sure the people saying this behavior is okay are the same people who like to slam their seats into people’s knees on airplanes.
have you tried saying excuse me and not being a whiny little shit
Ok I’ll bite. Fully reclining my seat shouldn’t be something that’s looked down on. The person slamming their knees into the back of my seat preventing me from fully reclining should be more looked down on. The reason is that reclining doesn’t intrinsically interfere with anyone else, but pushing your knees into someone else’s seat absolutely does.
All passengers have the same and equal freedom to recline their seat if they choose, except for the people in the emergency exit rows of course. It’s part of what you’re paying for when you buy the ticket. If that interferes with the knees of the person behind me that’s not my problem. The designers of the seats should ensure that fully reclining the seat doesn’t reduce knee room for the person behind me. The airline constructed this scenario all by themselves and if there’s a problem with it they should solve it themselves. I shouldn’t be asked to sacrifice my comfort on a flight I paid for (just like everyone else did) because they failed to do that.
If we’re really insistent that this is somehow not 100% the airline’s problem, I’d next argue that if you don’t have enough knee room in a regular seat with the person in front of you fully reclined, then you’re literally too big for that seat. You should buy a “comfort plus” ticket. The airline should force you to do so.
Bonus points if they stand in front of the door when you’re trying to leave the store.
It’s blessed to see people having a nice chat in public.
ikr it’s a grocery store, not an Amazon warehouse.
Where I live (Philadelphia suburbs) it’s exactly like this except both people are driving. And they always get pissed when you honk because roads aren’t for actual driving or anything.
What especially pisses me off about this sort of thing is that I KNOW both people are on Facebook and already know every fucking thing there is to know about the other person.
Quickest way to get them to love is to join their conversation.
“Oh my god Stacy, haven’t seen you in ages! How are the kids?”
ME: “Hi Stacy, wow I thought you only used that name on OnlyFans”
Seen it happen a few times
My shopping cart is a weapon!
This is unrealistic. In real life, they’d be standing next to a pillar.

I live for these awkward moments:
• Standing in the middle of the aisle? “Excuse me! Pardon me! Thaaaank yeeeeeoouuuu!”
• Not going on a green light because you’re looking down at your glowing crotch? Insta-long-honk
• You and your friend are blocking a doorway while chatting? hand on shoulder “Pardon me, young man! Appreesheeyateyah!”
Always wear a smile ☺️
Are you literally incapable of saying “excuse me” OP? Are you a shut-in who has no friends to share conversation with?
Shouldn’t be necessary. People need spacial awareness.
And courtesy.
GET OUT OF THE FUCKING DOORWAY
More than one thing can be true at once. Sure, saying “excuse me” is perfectly reasonable, but it’s also true that a lot of people are obnoxiously oblivious of their surroundings in public.
