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.

If a space doesn't have a car in it, it IS available. Unless some ignorant weapon has her trolley in it, in which case she should move it. Are you not following?

OK TrolleyMonitor, you win.:)

Tea ?

Can we have wine instead? It's lashing rain, cold and I am going to light the fire soon, feels like wine o'clock....

Wine sounds good..DD is off school and at the being grumpy as she isn't quite better but is bored stage of her illness

I would not tell the OP in person that I think she (and her sweary nemesis) are being arseholey but I would (and do) certainly think it. I am v. polite in RL. Grin

Wine, red. From Aldi please! Wink

To the person who responded first to the OP and had to get her snipey comment in about the word ignorant - she is using it in the correct sense, you ignoramus.

Correct me on that word, motherfucker.

FabOeufsFromLaChocolateries · 21/03/2013 15:29

Aww we need to try harder Grin

FabOeufsFromLaChocolateries · 21/03/2013 15:30

GetOeuf you are so masterful

From OED, first meaning of Ignorant: A. adj.
1.

a. Destitute of knowledge, either in general or with respect to a particular fact or subject; unknowing, uninformed, unlearned. ?Ignorant Friars n. see Ignorantine adj. and n.

I now want to know more about the Ignorant Friars.

They blocked people's way with their horses and carts then told them to fuck off

I think if it was the only space in the car park then she was BU holding it up but couldn't you have just waited 1 min?

This is a bit sensitive for me as someone once reversed into my pushchair/car door because I didn't move it fast enough when struggling to coerce reluctant 1 year old into her car seat... And there were plenty of other spaces on that same floor.. I couldn't leave the pushchair behind my car as the space was at the bottom of the ramp in the multistorey and would have made it difficult to get round. I was really shaken up about it and wish I had told him to fuck off.

She is lucky that she didn't meet my fiancee.

Anyone who'd told her to fuck off in a supermarket carpark would be having all future dental work performed via the rectum.

cumfy · 21/03/2013 19:53

And when people demand she move her trolley ...... ?
