meh, I tend to order all the really heavy stuff that I can't be arsed lugging home from the supermarket.

Well, that plus the thought of wandering round a supermarket whilst the dregs of the fucking earth walk at me instead of around me, don't control their fucking bastard little children whilst they are screaming and running round saying "can we have this? can we have this?", dimwit pimply little 15 yo freak shop assistants who have never heard of a fucking avocado and dumb fuck fat old cunts who ram their trolleys into my ankles tends to put me off going in person really.

Hahahahaha

I can seriously relate to that - bad Trolley Management skills are unforgiveable.

As is 4 women (who only ever see each other in tesco and probably secretly despise each other) setting up a god damn mother's meeting in the middle of the main aisle, discussing where they're all holidaying this year, blithely causing the supermarket equivalent of gridlock.

Precisely!

I could go on.

In fact, I will! Here are some other things that bug me about it all.

1. ten items or less means just that. It doesn't mean 11 or 12 and it certainly doesn't mean a fucking trolley full! Get fucked. I have 6 items and I want to get out of this fucking hell hole before what I am actually looking to pay for goes past it's sell-by date. If u can't read the sign or are too fucking stupid to realise, I'll point it out to you - why the fuck do u not find it odd that everyone else in this line has a handful of stuff and you have a trolley full of shit?

2. OK, so how long does it take certain people to realise that I am trying to look on the shelf that they have decided to park their trolley in front of? Don't fucking look at the sky, I am 6 foot fucking 3 and am not exactly a slender chap, don't fucking pretend like you can't see me there or don't realise what I am trying to look at. Move!

3. How long does it take you to look at a loaf of bread or a tin of fucking beans? And for fuck's sake, don't mangle whatever it is that you're looking at, open it up and then put it back on the fucking shelf you grubby cunt. I don't want to see that.

Drives me mad.

Internet grocery shopping is the best thing ever. Definitely worth the £5 to get some Johnny No-Stars to lug his sub-average IQ arse round the aisles picking the things that I want and getting some dimwit to deliver it.

That is all.
