People I Can Do Without

I really miss George Carlin.
His observations were not only amusing, but very accurate. I was especially taken with his 'People I Can Do Without' stuff, because while most was played for laughs, the overall idea struck a chord with a lot of people, including me.
To wit:
People at the grocery store, who leave their cart in the middle of the aisle, while they wander off, blocking the aisle for the rest of us. And, when you try to move it, they come unglued, and act like you've just slapped their baby or something. Look, if you go from aisle "A" to aisle "D", TAKE THE DAMN CART! Or, if, for some unfathomable reason, you CAN'T take it, put it to the side, to allow others to get by it. Or, just shop online, and have the damn food delivered.

By the way....did you know that you could (theoretically, anyway) shop out of other people's grocery carts? As long as the food's not paid for, you could (theoretically, anyway) take stuff from other carts, and take it for yourself (theoretically, anyway). Not that I'd advise it, you understand (well, theoretically, anyway)......
