Proof I live in the Ghetto....

This

From Shopping Cart


was on my doorstep this morning.

I did not steal it.

I have no idea who did.

My kids think it's GREAT fun to climb on it.

Sigh.

I really don't know what to do with it, so my neighbor told me to put it by the dumpsters. Apparently, every now and then "someone" (and who that "someone" is a mystery...) comes and picks up all the carts. I suppose this happens a lot around here.

Here's what I do NOT undersand:

If you MUST steal a shopping cart from Food 4 Less, then fine, I get that. You have no car, and you don't/can't walk the mile home carrying all your groceries. I don't think it's the BEST, but I can see why that happens.

BUT, WHY OH WHY can you not WALK the cart back to the store when you undoubtly return next week? Why would you condemn the perfectly fine cart to be destroyed by the naughty teens that live here, when you could EASILY take it back? It's just dumb. No one at Food 4 Less is going to come running at you from a block away as you approach pushing said cart and have you arrested. They won't even notice.

I don't understand. And now, I get to push it out to the dumpster so I stop looking like some ridiculous cart thief. GRRREEEAAATTTT.

I think you should also go find the nearest pair of shoes hanging on the telephone wire and photograph those as well. :P

If you're noticing a shopping cart left on your sidewalk, it is proof that you don't actually live in the ghetto! ;) If you really lived in the ghetto, there would be so many errant shopping carts around you wouldn't even notice them anymore, or at the very least would be too distracted by the police action taking place a street over to care.
