nipped up to aldi on lunch break to do some food shopping. as expected place is busy, its friday and a bank holiday weekend. the only space i saw available was half blocked by a woman loading her back seat with the contents of her trolley one by one. i drove up and sat there for a min thinking she would move. she didnt. she glanced over her shoulder stared at me and continued on. i rolled down passenger window and asked her politely, "sorry can you please move your trolley". she told me to fuck off. i then pulled handbrake got out, got her trolley by the bar handle and pulled it behind her car while she was shouting this that and the other. i said nothing. hopped back in and parked properly. as i was going into the shop she was still shouting at me. was half afraid she may damage my car while i was in the shop she sounded that mental! i ignored her but am stull fuming sitting her back at my desk. wibu? should i not have touched the trolley? i didnt handle her bought goods or her ... simply moved the trolley to her boot. grrrrrr! wagon.

But see how versatile it is as a retort!!!

"ah must be an irish thing ... everyone can be as "ignorant as fuck" here even though it technically doesnt apply."
Not just Irish fluckered, totally normal in Scotland too "yah ignorant get, yeh". Or words to that effect. Grin

Standard usage in Sarf London and Bristol too.

  1. Find another space.
  1. Another problem caused by plastic bag tax ?
KobayashiMaru · 21/03/2013 03:23
  1. There wasn't another space, OP said.
  1. Everyone has their own bags, and Aldi/Lidl sell bags, nothing to do with any bag tax.

Also, OP's use of ignorant was fine. Plenty here who are ignorant of uses of the word though.

yanbu.

am surprised nobody has asked what a wagon is though!

DrHolmes · 21/03/2013 08:17

Flockofstarlings - Are you going to update your AIBU thread where you were extremely unreasonable?

OP YANBU

My niece, who works full-time, has her shopping delivered and I am retired and tired and have mine delivered too. Changed my life < made it much easier>

MidniteScribbler · 21/03/2013 08:28

No, sorry, no points for this one.

Now, if she'd been in a parents with prams parking space but had nothing but a small yappy dog in a hand knitted sweater that frequently got lost between the crevice of her oversized butt cheeks, well I'd have given you a standing ovation.

countrykitten · 21/03/2013 09:07

She was extremely rude and aggressive in telling you to fuck off and you were incredibly aggressive and rude in moving her trolley. You both sound like total arseholes.

cumfy · 21/03/2013 14:52

No need to beat about the bush kitten.Wink

FabOeufsFromLaChocolateries · 21/03/2013 14:58

So..people who talk to others in.a rude and aggressive manner are arseholes are they kitten?..

Hmmm

cumfy · 21/03/2013 14:59

It's a car park; they're designed to be driven around Kobayashi

FabOeufsFromLaChocolateries · 21/03/2013 14:59

I love when people on here say stuff like "you're fucking rude. You arsehole"

Grin
cumfy · 21/03/2013 15:00

The operative word being to, Fab.

KobayashiMaru · 21/03/2013 15:01

yes I know that but what is your point?

cumfy · 21/03/2013 15:04

The idea of car parks when busy is that you circulate til a space becomes genuinely available.

What the OP did was deliberately block that circulation, when it could be seen the space wasn't yet available.

Selfish.

FabOeufsFromLaChocolateries · 21/03/2013 15:07

Disgraceful behaviour OP. The worst thing I ever heard of.

Not circulating in a car park

FabOeufsFromLaChocolateries · 21/03/2013 15:08

Sorry..am in a silly mood and just laughing at people getting so riled up about a very minor incident to the extent they are swearing at each other.

FabOeufsFromLaChocolateries · 21/03/2013 15:08

AIBU isn't a fight club"

It is today

cumfy · 21/03/2013 15:08

Indeed.

Blocks everyone else.
