All yoose men and womens are full of it... People pushing
shopping carts into your ankles, blocking aisles while paying no
attention to others, standing at the checkout picking out pennies
or using bad debit cards or expired credit cards, turban wearing
mid-eastern fellows chasing you with a broom...and on and on.

If any of those silly stories are true, yoose need to move to my
area and shop early. I have honestly NEVER encountered any of
these silly situations. Never! WTF?
