Walz puts his cart back. Vance leaves it sitting in the parking spot next to him.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon 50 points 1 month ago (1 children)

And it rolls into some poor person's old beater car and scratches it.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 month ago (1 children)

If he notices, he chuckles to himself. But I'm feeling like he wouldn't care enough to notice which direction the cart goes, as long as it doesn't inconvenience him.

Vance parks in the crosshatches next to the disabled space during a snowstorm so I have to go back into the store again to have him paged so I can access my car in my wheelchair. He then takes 20 minutes to finish shopping before coming out, and acts like I’m the one who inconvenienced him by making him rush. (Yes, this actually happened. It wasn’t Vance, but someone like him.)

I dunno, Vance seems more like the sorta guy that would take the raw chicken into the restroom and pull the couch maneuver..

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 month ago (1 children)

… eww

Right but wow I didn’t want to imagine that.

[–] Dagnet 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Commenting on your post so you get a notification and imagine that again

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Imagine what? What was this comment again?

And then put it back.

Hittin it raw

Hides the chicken behind something because he's embarrassed by leaving it so nobody finds it until it starts to rot 🤢🤮

[–] spankmonkey 34 points 1 month ago

Not because he's embarrassed, but because he wants employees to suffer.

[–] cynar 14 points 1 month ago

Hiding it requires caring, even if in a negative manner. People like him simply don't care at all, at least to an individual level. Why should the aristocracy care about the help?

The poor, as an amalgam, are vaguely worth caring about it, taking $50 off of 1 million people is actually worth the effort. After all, $50 is next to nothing. Who would even notice the difference?

In many ways, amoral indifference is far more horrifying than active evil. No one sees themselves as the villain of their own story. Crushing ants also doesn't make you evil (though the ants will strongly disagree).

Some dickhead once left two 6pks of raw chicken breast in my humongous bin of yams. I came in the following morning to find the fucking juicefest. I had to throw away all of it. Probably 160lbs of yams/sweet potatoes.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon 17 points 1 month ago (9 children)

Like how hard is it to walk it back?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago

Or, fuck, at least take it up front when you check out and just say you didn't want it. When I worked at a grocery store we'd just run it back to where it should go.

These same people probably leave their carts wherethefuckever too.

I worked in a grocery store for a while. There was something smelly in the store and it took us a couple days to find it. Someone hid some meat (it might have been shrimp and/or beef) they didn't want behind 4 bags of dog food at the very back of the shelf.

JD Vance is a man in deep shopping cart return debt

[–] chimasterflex 5 points 1 month ago

I would pay to see cart narc take on JD

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 month ago (2 children)

So you know, if you have taken a perishable item from a cooler in a grocery store and later decide that you don't want it, the store has to throw it away.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I've worked in a lot of grocery stores in multiple states for over a decade and this has never been true in my experience. Staff puts their hand on it, if its cold it goes back in the cooler, if it's warm it gets tossed. It is not a definite garbage item despite the lingering urban myth. If it is true its a store policy at one company, and it must be regional because no major national chain does this.

[–] flicker 12 points 1 month ago

I work at a grocery store now and what you say is still true.

Items are only thrown out if they've been removed from the store before returning.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon 6 points 1 month ago

Why I always put it back.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

JD Vance doesn't know how to order donuts at a donut shop.

He doesn't do his own shopping.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago

JD Vance walks into a supermarket: "Excuse me, how long have you worked here? Can you provide me a basket of groceries? Put in what's reasonable."

[–] moistclump 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Is this tweet going to be used in political science textbooks in the future to describe the political landscape and its intersection with meme culture?

goofus and gallant reborn for a new age

[–] Viking_Hippie 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Except a lot of the time Gallant wasn't even being virtuous, just blindly obedient..

They could’ve made this clearer.

[–] pyre 13 points 1 month ago

some drumsticks, some wings... beaks, whatever makes sense...

[–] ronflex 13 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I'd picture him as the kinda guy that would just make his wife do the shopping. Then if he had to he would make her set up a Walmart grocery pickup and berate the worker while the poor soul loads his groceries in the back of his pickup truck or whstever.

He'd open the raw chicken and leave separate breasts individually on each aisle after deciding he didn't want it. If JD can't have it, no one can.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

It's interesting that with the new affidavit leak, just a few years ago he was a never-Trump moderate, and now he's distinguished himself as one of the most vile, feckless, shameless chuds in the game.

As an Ohioan it was always clear he was a disgusting freak, there was a lot of discussion about him when his elitist couch-cucking manifesto was released, but he's really turned up the volume on the worst parts of Republican discourse. Just goes to show what "mainstream" conservative discourse is, and where it is headed -- as well as what the backlash will be if they keep on it.

[–] Sludgehammer 11 points 1 month ago (4 children)

Ugh... this reminds me of the time I spotted some hotdogs tucked into a non-refrigerated endcap at a local store. Since they were already room temperature (and as such no longer food safe) I just left them there with the assumption that the staff would clean them up after hours. I went back to the store about a week later and noticed the hot dogs were still there.

Walz lets you cut in from of him.

Jimmy Dean pays an immigrant $3 an hour to shop for him and tells them they're ruining the country when they return with the food.

[–] hOrni 9 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Kamala seems like someone who can make a bang on spaghetti. Trump eats his steaks well done.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Trump eating steak? Nah. Still too sophisticated.

This is a guy who bought Fast Food as a celebration.

Here's the idiot eating McDonald's while visiting Japan's Prime Minister.

He also ends every shopping trip with "hold on I forgot something" while the cashier's asking for his credit card, then wandering off for 10 minutes.

[–] trebor8201 8 points 1 month ago (2 children)

This post is misleading. Vance has never personally set foot into a grocery store. Why would he? They don't sell couches there.

He definitely fucks the chicken.
