I'd have little old ladies push their wagons over my foot before, then tell me that I should take better care in sweeping up all the obstructions in the aisles, completely ignoring my minor yelps of pain and/or alarm. Luckily, I was working at the time, or I would have pulled the cart's front into the air and forward, with or without her, to get it off of me and somewhere else where it can do 90% less harm.

Quoth RecoveringKinkoid View PostI've been told I look kind of severe and give the impression that I would make a poor victim. I don't know if that is true, but I've never had to deal with this kind of bizarre behavior, either.
Scammers generally take a more shotgun approach and will hit up everyone they can reach because they'll get a return based on percentages, so the more they hit, the more they'll eventually get.

Quoth Andara Bledin View PostThe types of people that would assault others (with carts, foul words, what have you) look for a certain type of people. You and I are the polar opposite of that type of person and so don't have to deal with much, if any, of that.

Evidently, I don't look particularly "nice."

Heh, I remember shopping at wally world with a male friend. Some old bat kept hitting him in the lower back with her shopping cart and calling him a freak because he wore eyeliner. He told her twice to knock it off. The third time, he turned around, flipped her off, then flipped her cart upside down. He had minor anger issues which he typically reserved to express towards strangers, just the wrong guy to mess with."I'm working for popcorn - what I get paid doesn't rise to the level of peanuts." -Courtesy of Darkwish

You know, the last time someone rammed their cart into ME like that, their cart someone mysteriously got kicked halfway across the f**king store. Only when they do it on purpose of course. Or continuously. BTW don't anger me when I'm pmsing or the cart may end up rammed someone you won't like

Quoth RecoveringKinkoid View PostIf someone did that to me while my kid was in the cart, which she almost always is, the scene would end up on the 6 o'clock news.NEVER underestimate the stupidity of the customer
