I hate it when...

[Devo37]

I hate when I'm watching a TV show/movie and someone in a bar tells the bartender, "I'll have a beer" AND THE BARTENDER SERVES HIM ONE!

try ordering "a beer" in a bar and the bartender will look at you like you're half a retard!!!

i hate it when people don't return their shopping carts to the designated cart return areas.

especially when they leave them in the middle of the parking spot next to them.

lazy fucks.

[topless_mike]

why?

joe pesci and marisa tomei went to a diner where they only served
"breakfast", "lunch", and "dinner"

it worked for them.
get over it.

I always like how Quentin Tarantino uses Red Apple Cigarettes in his movies.

who ever returns em? In fact, they employ people just to go around and collect carts. If you and everyone returned all the carts, you would be costing people jobs. I GIVE PEOPLE JOBS BY NOT RETURNING MY CART

At a brewery I go to back home I know one of the bartenders and he knows which beer I prefer so I will say can I have a beer and he knows what I mean...doesnt work out anywhere else though.

^^^ here ppl leave them in the parking lots because in the winter its a pain in the ass to return them across the rutted parking lot, and the drunks return them for the quarters. Usually if there is a cart left in the lot its because there wasn't a coin in the slot so its not worth returning.

Truer words were never spoken...

I learned from the best... my mother never EVER returned a cart in her life. I've noticed this really annoys people and if I'm with one of those people I'll put it back, or make them responsible for the cart while I get the groceries in the car. When faced with having to return it themselves, I've seen those same people just stick the cart anywhere, even behind someone's car, so the driver will have to move it to get out of their parking spot. Hypocrites!

Dude, if it's gonna cost me a quarter to leave that cart out in the parking lot, I am going to return my fucking cart and get my fucking quarter.

If I have no quarters, how else am I supposed to get candy from the gumball machines?

Maybe snoogans and I live in fantasy world, but where do carts cost money besides the airport?

Apparently Canada.

Odd place.

I remember only one place growing up that had a quarter cart-return system. That place went out of business very quickly. Never saw it again.

Well back home they don't have this but up here there are so many derelicts that I think its like a make work project for them. At the Safeway they only get a quarter but at Extra foods they can get a dollar.

I went to a restaurant that serves "breakfast at any time". So I ordered French Toast during the Renaissance.

There are a few places, I forget where. When Dad started carrying his keychain with the quarter-holder, and I can't remember when the heck that was, that's when I first became aware of it.

There are a couple of ShopRites that do it, mostly in rich areas where people are driving Lexus SUV's (so in NJ, that would be most of Morris County, Upper Saddle River, Oradell, etc., in Bergen County ... I think you get the idea.)

Ramsey Shoprite definitely does not do it.

I am just surprised to hear this considering I am in the supermarket business and this has never been mentioned in any meetings when discussing costs for a store. I am definitely going to ask around if we practice it.

I'm trying to think if the ShopRite of Oakland does it. (They didn't for a long time and then Dad started carrying his keychain with the quarter, and that threw me. Since I haven't been there in maybe 3 years, I can't remember accurately.)

I would be curious as to whether or not you would then need to replace all of your existing carts with the quarter-slot carts or if they are added onto existing equipment.

I would guess that the cost benefits include decreased customer complaints of carts scratching their cars (because you pretty much have to return the cart to reclaim your quarter; any unreturned carts have the possibility of still having quarters ... so the cart-return staff may have the opportunity to pick up the extra quarters when they gather the carts towards the front of the store...) and a reduced number of lost carts due to theft or other mischief.

I want to say I have also seen the quarter-carts at Costco and BJ's, but, again, it's so long since I've been to one for major shopping that my memory may be faulty!

[Jujubees2]

The Pathmark in Whitestone has the quarter carts but the one in the Bronx off the Bruckner doesn't. Go figure.

[hunnerbun]

so the cart-return staff may have the opportunity to pick up the extra quarters when they gather the carts towards the front of the store...)


LOL...This part made me laugh so hard.... Here the "cart return staff" are all the drunk indians that are looking for more quarters so they can stumble over to the liquor store and carry on with the drinking. **

Morons.

"What kind of beer?"


"Uhhh.... whatever."



Those people should not be allowed out.

[A.J.]

When I bartended in college and people would say "I'll have a beer" I usually gave them an import because they were the most expensive.

[Jujubees2]

Coach, "How about a beer, Norm?"
Norm, "Hey I'm high on life, Coach. Of course, beer is my life."

Coach, "Can I draw you a beer, Norm?"
Norm, "No, I know what they look like. Just pour me one."

Sam, "What will you have, Norm?"
Norm, "Well, I'm in a gambling mood, Sammy. I'll take a glass of whatever comes out of that tap."
Sam, "Oh, looks like beer, Norm".
Norm, "Call me Mister Lucky."

Woody, "Can I pour you a beer, Mr. Peterson?"
Norm, "A little early, isn't it Woody?"
Woody, "For a beer?"
Norm, "No, for stupid questions."

Woody, "What's going on, Mr. Peterson?"
Norm, "The question is: what's going in, Mr. Peterson? A beer please, Woody."

Last year I would have responded with a your-dollar-aint-worth-shit quip.

This year that funny money sho looks good to me.
