Why do we feel a need to call people out for being lazy? It's not like they did anything.

In the Southeastern US, it's called a buggy. Sorry, that was bugging me.

My wife would never call me lazy. She knows I'm not afraid of hard work. I can sit right next to it all day without being bothered in the least.

And that's how I divorced your mom for always being there for her.

I'm rolling with 'electric cart' instead of trolley. But take my upvote.

Why would you call a grocery cart a trolley? Trolleys carry people. A cart can carry anything. A buggy is southern slang but what we called it in Mississippi. Which is not accurate at all. But trolley is dumb. So is calling a truck a lorry. Wtf?

I’m only 20 and I don’t have a wife so I don’t have a say in this but I would of tripped her grabbed her arm before she fell and slammed her on the ground in the frozen food isle and say ā€œcall that lazy?ā€

"A shopping cart (American English), trolley (British English, Australian English), or buggy (Southern American English, Appalachian English), also known by a variety of other names, is a wheeled cart supplied by a shop or store." From https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shopping_cart I call it "Buggy," but I'm from Oklahoma...where the shopping cart was invented. 😁

My wife accused me of being out of touch with reality.

I was so shocked, I nearly fell off my unicorn.

This immediately made me think of The Jerky Boys' Lawnmower Salesman prank call:
"You is a lazy bastard, ain't you? You're just lookin' to get out the easy way. Well, I got them pushin' kinds." Check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBx0W8nEksQ

Yeah what in the living fuck am I reading I feel like I'm going crazy I've never heard any term other than cart

Lived in TX most of my life now I'm in TN which is just like Northern Southern US

A buggy is like a dune buggy, and a trolly is a monorail or something maybe?

I’d have walked out of the store and left her to shop alone. There’s no way I’d ever accept that behaviour. Oh, my payment cards would have gone with me lol.

It reminds me of another joke A husband and wife are shopping in their local grocery store. The husband picks up a case of Budweiser and puts it in the cart.

"What do you think you're doing?" asks the wife.

"They're on sale, only $10 for 24 cans" he replies.

"Put them back, we can't afford them", demands the wife.

They carry on with their shopping. A few aisles farther on, the woman picks up a $20 jar of face cream and puts it in the basket.

"What do you think you're doing?" asks the husband.

"It's my face cream. It makes me look beautiful," replies the wife.

Her husband retorts, "So does 24 cans of Budweiser and it's half the price."

Why would you assume that the rest of the world is just like England?

America tends to speak English the way that it was invented. Instead of fucking it up without even the excuse of moving across the Atlantic Ocean.

Seriously. American English tends to use Georgian or even pre-Georgian vocabulary instead of adopting the latest fashionable Victorian or Edwardian terminology.

I’ve never seen a trolley in a supermarket. The thought of it didn’t seem funny.

I didn’t ever get fox but I was offered a job as an apprentice miniatures-builder on the show, back in the mid-late 00’s (for what would have been ā€œBack To Earthā€. Unfortunately, due to declining health (I’m now completely housebound and have cognitive issues, meaning I can’t work very often at all), I had to turn down the role.

I know it’s not the same. I’ve just always been quite proud that they offered me work on one of my favourite shows and I figured it sort of fit.

I've only ever heard it referred to as a shopping cart. Was wondering how trains entered into it
Regardless, your country has given us William Shakespeare, Isaac Newton, the Beatles and Olivia Colman. You need no forgiveness.

I went to the supermarket for my lunch and got a sandwich and a packet of crisps. The young girl at the checkout said:ā€would you like to go for a drinkā€? I was so shocked I said: ā€œyoung lady I’m old enough to be your father ā€œ. She said: ā€œthe drink is part of the meal dealā€.
