I just about lost it in Thrifties on monday. I was out to get lunch. I didn't feel like my usual veggie pizzza slice and rock star it was too hot so I just wanted some fruit.
The isles are tiny and crammed with shopping carts. People hang out in the isles like it's a rec room, people let their brats run loose, kids whine and want candy, the people who wok at the check out take their sweet ass time. This pimply goon at the checkout was taking forever. Moving items very slow on the scanner. People are behind me
people are in front of me with shitloads of items when they see me standing there impatiently with only an engery bar, apple and bottled of water.
It's Thrifties I can't stand but I wasn't gonna walk up to Country Grocer (my prefered store) on that hot ass day. Its been so hot the pass few days and the parking lots are hot and im just cranky and need something to rant about.

Depends on how much money I have, and even then, I just want to leave after awhile. Freedom is something I still want, and I got some of that. I think at least part of the shop need is that. I want sex! I did everything I think I could to get it, now just one more thing.
I workout, I am a little more than just an ameature :laugh: I like thinking about about what I am going to do with the things I buy, and here I am, now a regular practicer of a cheap healing technique, visual imagery. It boosts white blood cell count 40 % in healthy subjects, plus or minus.
I noticed a great increase in motivation, even though my bills where behind. Everything is just about go now. >:D I found out about being a stand up comedian to. When I have money, I forget I cook alone.
Groccery store wasn't fun today. Its not fun when you buy the wrong foods for your body either, which I don't do anymore. No high fructose corn syrup! No fried food! There is a way to do it right, but I am so picky. It looks rather stressful, but I like it.

I like grocery stores when I get something like a pineapple or cherries. There is a Raley's that has a good sandwich counter and coffee shop in it.
-
I stick to shopping in the early morning and stick to the smaller stores.
Hate crowds. :zombiefuck:
-
:agreed:
-
Christmas shopping is the worst :aff:
-
:indeed: :(
-
I used to hate being in public places, but I don't mind it anymore. My powerful prescence has been refined and sharpened so it cuts like a knife whenever I speak or look at someone.
People usually shrink away from me or agree with everything I say. ;)
-
I don't shrink away or agree with everything you say :zoinks:

I wouldn't need to use my "fire" on you. You like me, so i'd spare you. :-*

If Rage gave that look to someone here, he'd be stabbed twice and left to bleed at the side of the lake. :zoinks:
I don't mind going to such shops, but I've more of a problem with shopping centres... so many fucking clothes shops, most of them for women. Plus a lot of hipsters/emos/scenesters go to the one here, which makes the experience more hellish.

Hipsters/emos/scenesters would have the balls to stab me? ???
-
No, I was more referring to the chavvy types. The hipsters etc. are harmless physically, but they're an obnoxious bunch.
-
I hate going to wal-mart for this reason
-
I wear my headphones and blast music in my ears at the grocery
This made me think of The Clash:
"I'm all lost in the supermarket, I can no longer shop happily!"
-

Oh the chavs? Nah. I was raised by a green beret. I really don't like to, but if it comes down to it, I can seriously fuck someone up.

Stores are only good in the wee hours of the morning

Yeah I know what you mean. I'm like that too. People are scared of me. I have small Greyish blue eyes and I was told in high school that a girl was scared of me because my stare is too intense.
-
I don't mine going to grocery store.
-
I only hate crowded grocery stores, assholes bump into you rudely and block the aisles with their fat asses, talking to either each other in person, or on the phone. They know you're coming but they... just... don't... move! Fuckers. The malls are not as bad here, hardly run into any problems (except some large retailers have shitty customer service), but I usually go in the mornings to avoid the crowds.

Hate crowds. :zombiefuck:
This is a prompt :yawn:
I don't care, I think this could help someone else, if they have my intrests, not what it appears to be.
I like crowds full of women, that I pick out from the men. Its certainly better than my home, which there is no one there. Crowds can make it take long. I like to stare at the women, just becareful, they could get the wrong idea. They usually don't care if I do it.
-
I look at shopping like it's work. So it's usually Hell, and sometimes laughably absurd.
I have a totally untested, unproven theory that people drive grocery carts as badly or worse than they drive their cars. The one fun thing I've learned to do--esp. if I'm on my oddy-knocky--is weave in & out & around. I call it "Shopping Parkout." Unlike the villains in PAUL BLART, I don't use a board or a bike. And as much as it is for fun, it's to get out people's way so I don't goes apeshit. Which I have done. Almost did earlier this week. My sig other wisely asked me to get the car.
The other good rule I've learned is the oldest one: Eat before shopping. Especially grocery shopping. You'll save $ right there.

Or just take a limited amount of money with you :laugh:

QFT. Done that too many times to count. :)

I find that grocery shopping visually overloads me most times I go, it isn't just the people that make it a chore.
There are just too many choices to make and too many colours and things to look at.

LMFAO!!!! Browsing through I just knew that Randy would be posting in here! You love being in grocery stores Randy, don't ya??? The one's that will not have you arrested for patronizing their establishment anyways! Hahahahahahaha! I think I peed myself! And YES Randy, women DO care when a stranger is eyeballing them no matter where. They just try to ignore you in hopes that you will stop, and not make eye contact for fear that you will initiate conversation or contact! What you are interpreting is not what is really happening in real life Randy. You sound like you are having delusions that are getting more real to you all the time. I hope you get some counseling soon, and possibly some socialization skills. If you would put on a decent outfit, cut your hair, fix your glasses so they sit straight on your face and actually approach a woman who is not hiding with a handshake and introduction such as, "Hi, my name is Randy, how are you?" Maybe you would get a better response and your house wouldn't be so empty. I think I can speak for just about every woman who has been ogled by a stranger in the way you do it, it makes them feel uncomfortable and some of those fight or flight responses begin to activate. Again, you should go over to Dad's and watch some of the crime shows with him. Then you could see why women don't respond to men who act like this... there are psychos out there!
-
Maybe that should have been sent as a private message.

Grocery shopping's fun. We always go in and buy the same food, sometimes different kind and this time we totally got different things because I need to eat healthy. We got very few of the same stuff.

I've just returned to Australia from North America, the land of ridiculously-overcomplicated consumer choice. Green tea extract in yogurt? Why, in heaven's name? I like yogurt in my yogurt, and maybe a bit of fruit. If I want the tea, I'll brew some myself. :duh:

Is your sleep schedule fucked up now? Does Australia have proper saltines?

Wecome back, SleepyDragon.
I have never seen green tea yogurt, but I have seen green tea ice cream. It's one of my daughter's favorites.
-
I'm a tad bit jetlagged. Usually I'm better after westbound travel, but not this time.
Australia has saltines, but I prefer Sao crackers, or those multigrain crackers with flaxseed & sesame, because I can never get the Premiums (saltines) to break on the score lines like they are supposed to. * grumbles *
Thanks Callaway. :) I suppose there's nothing wrong in principle with adding green-tea extract to yogurt because of its supposed magikal antioxidant properties, but to me it says "Desperate grab for health-conscious consumer dollar."

LOL, last year they tried introducing biscuits with tea in them. Green tea and Earl Grey. Did not take long before they were all on a discount. And they have never returned. If I want tea in my biscuits, I will soak them. Not buy them enriched with grinded tealeaves.
Getting groceries here in the village is not that bad. I can race to and from the supermarket getting my stuff in 10 minutes.
And I just love buying bread at the bakery. No need to pretend to be different than I am. I am welcome there in a bad mood, or radiant. As long as I can deal with the same moodshifts of the shopkeeper. And we love unsetling other customers. In my most dark years here, the bakery was my daily trip into sanity and fun.
Shopping for clothes, that is something I really hate.
Shopping for shoes is even worse.

i do not like going to any place that has more than 5 or 6 people unless i know all of them already
i also try to stay away from a lot of noise i am not able to control and i can hear all sounds including motors from the freezers and the hum from the lights and then all the noise people make

Don't leave them off for too long, they might run away and join the army :zoinks:

I hate being in grocery stores and shopping areas in general. Mainly because of the crowds, the lines and also bump I encounter people I don't want to see ever again >:(

Did not this Randy fellow's mum ever taught him never to look at strangers? My mother certainly taught me that and she in generally wasn't the greatest out there.
