    If you can push it around the shop full of things, you can put it back while empty.

      This is such hot garbage. Like I’m sorry but people stare and laugh when I bring my wheelchair to the store but then stand to reach a shelf. I’ve so often barely finished shopping out of exhaustion

      Have to take a break after entering the store. Have to take a break halfway through. Have to take a break before check out. Have to take a break before parking lot. Take a longer break recouping in the car because groceries are fucking heavy with a spinal fracture.

      Just because someone CAN do a given task doesn’t mean they can do it to the ability level of everyone else. Nor can they do it without longterm consequences, yes I can walk a few blocks, but I’ll be unable to move at all the next three days.

      If someone says they can’t do something because of physical limitations, leave them the fuck alone about it and accept people struggle in unseen ways.

        You know I actually have dislocated my knee twice. Still have never done that though.

          To clarify, you were doing the shopping yourself? With the dislocated knee? Because that’s literally what they are saying happened. Not that they dislocated it once and then never returned the carts again. They say clearly below that they are fully mobile and return the carts now. So do you really want to stand by what you’re saying?

              Well, I can think of at least two other interpretations off the top of my head, but I’m not really interested in explaining them to you.

              At the end of the day, not everyone’s dislocated knee is the same. Doubling down on your position of “oh yeah? Well I got a dislocated knee, too, buddy, and I was still able to function!” is incredibly embarrassing for you, from my perspective.

              I’ve never not returned a cart myself.

              Sorry you’re such a butthurt loser over a person with a severe injury not returning their shopping cart to the corral. You sound like someone who is terrible to be around. Please never address me again.

        Maybe that wouldn’t happen if people didn’t leave shopping carts around to bump into and fall over.
