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.

I've heard "tot-trolley" before, but not as a "real word" in a dialect/region, more in a "bra = over-shoulder-boulder-holder" vein.

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?

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."

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.
