You need a girlfriend before you can have kids of your own.
Good luck broseph!

I can't remember the last time I saw a kid at the grocery store. currently paying a premium hipster tax to live in an inner city hovel where everyone around me is age 20-40 and doesn't have kids. I don't see many fatasses either, it's pretty nice.

>>5554569
I've only ever seen these at one supermarket I worked for, Kroger. On my last day, all of these carts were on the parking lot, spread out. Because they're so fucking big and awkward, they literally had to be pushed in one at a time (normal carts you could stack 8-14).

I can't remember what happened, but I had slightly hurt myself and these fucking carts were the reason, so I went into a blind rage and disassembled it, throwing the parts behind the building. It was my last day working there anyway.

>>5554569
Seeing the broken, stressed-out fuckers carting their screeching kids around the store in these things make me thank every God ever named that both my wife and I both got fixed for good measure. Very rarely do you see happy little families in public anymore. FUCK all that shit.

Also, whoever invented those miniature shopping carts for kids to push around and run into shelves and strangers' legs, needs to be shot.

>>5554610
Christ, I work at Trader Joe's and we have those. Every time I see a mom with her two fucking kids each pushing one if those around, I want to scream.

>>5554592
Where

My son loves these carts, but they're honestly more trouble than they're worth. Once he sees that a store has one, it's either that cart or nothing. I don't have endless time to do shit, and sometimes he needs to come with me when I need to shop. At least he's somewhat entertained, because shopping is pretty boring for a kid.

>>5554736

Sounds like Seattle.

>>5554752

That what gamebosy are for.

>>5554778
He's 5. I don't let him play videogames yet.

>>5554809
so you don't let him decide what to do with his free time, but you let him dictate which shopping cart you'll use?

>>5554809
What kind of a parent are you? Why would you deprive him of such joy?

>>5554736
houston, based grocery store is based. I miss the old beaner grocer across the street though, the new store killed them.

>These fucking things are the bane of my existence

you must have a really depressing existence

>>5554569
And I bet they're never cleaned, or at least not very well.

>>5554810
I do. I just don't think videogames are appropriate for his age, and he knows it.

>>5554811
Oh, it's something I've got planned for his 6th birthday. I remember reading studies about children's brains and eyesight and how they're affected by too much screen time. I might seem strict, but it's nothing something I'll disallow forever.

>>5554752
Sounds like he's going to be spoiled little shit if you can't even deny him a shopping cart.

I wish people wouldn't bring their shitty kids grocery shopping at all until they've learned how to comport themselves in public. A place where people go to buy things that they put in their mouths is no place for children at all.

>>5554932
I hope you are at least going to buy him Mortal Kombat X. It's looking like it'll be amazing. Some of my best memories as a kid is playing MK with my dad, even though he sucked at it and let me win all the time.

>>5554938
Christ, this so much. A few months ago I was going to buy mushrooms at the store, and for whatever idiotic reason the store had them on the very lowest produce shelf possible. Some little kid walked up to them and started touching every single one, playing with them, and was about to throw them around before her grandma came and pulled her away. I paid for the rest of my food and bought mushrooms at a different store on the way home.

It's so your kids can do this while you're shopping.

>>5554569
>god help you if you get trapped between two of them and you have a cart of your own.
"Pardon me"

WOW, THAT WAS SO FUCKING HARD.

>>5554872
Are you fucking kidding me.

I live in college station. Houston is a shithole. Full of blacks, no matter where you go.

I used to ride under the bottom, well actually only like twice because it was such a stop and go that I got bored. But seriously, just let the little niggas have some fun.

Btw, you ever see one of those motherfuckers get caught in the wind in the lot? Lmao Shit looks like a cartoon when it hit and runs a parked car.

>>5555027
you must be going to the wrong parts, the city is 600 square miles not counting suburbs. all I see are 20-30 something year old childless white folk and a few friendly Mexican families. I see blacks on occasion but they aren't niggers so I don't mind them, most are very nice.

>I live in college station

I'm so sorry. Really, I am.

>>5555060
Why? College station is growing rapidly and is a hotspot for growing careers/businesses.

It seems like if you stay on the outer parts of Houston you might be fine.

>>5555007
"Pardon me" doesn't magically create extra room to pass. Someone has to back all the way down the aisle since there is no room to turn one of these behemoths around, let alone squeeze another cart passed it.

>>5554752
That is what Discipline is for. Teach your stupid kid that he doesn't always get his way.

>>5555135
have you been to houston lately? the outer parts are getting worse if anything, the inner loop is exploding with fancy things and white people. everytime I walk out the door some dilapidated thing has been bulldozed and something I cant afford is being built where last weeks demolition project took place. Everyone turned white too, when I moved here this was the barrio. not complaining because I'm white too, but the rent increases for shit places does suck.

>>5554569
>What's wrong with just having your kid ride on the bottom of a normal shopping cart like we all did in the 80s?

Because someone's precious little angel will get hurt and end up suing the store.

>>5555254
>Because someone's precious little angel will get hurt and end up suing the store.
This shit makes me rage hard. I swear anyone who wants to point fingers because >MUH ROTTEN CROTCH FRUIT GOT HIZ PINKY STUBBED! needs to die in a fire immediately.

>>5555060
I love Houston and used to live in one of the childless areas that you speak of, anon. I can't tell you how much I miss it. It's been hard adjusting to the child friendly Austin environment. Faggot kids and parents EVERYWHERE. I miss Houston so bad.

And I agree, College Station sucks ass. I would hate to live there

>>5554591
Are you that fat housewife who likes to berate people who didn't fuck up their lives as "lonely virgins" while posting obesity propaganda^H^H^H pinup art?

>>5555281
austin is still a good place, it's gotten sort of douchey though, like california douchey. no hate and I'd happily live there, just an observation. from my shitty observation it seems austin has gotten more like california was, houston has gotten more like austin used to be, and dallas is still up there doing something or other.

>>5555254
I got hurt once doing that. I put my hand down to grab something and the cart ran over my fingers. My dad finished his shopping and we went home. Stores can't be held responsible for every minor injury that could conceivably happen from their customers being idiots.

>>5555326
Goddamn this is depressing to read. I used to love going to TX as a kid. Now you make it sound like a liberal pussified shittown like when I went to cali and everyone was to rudely polite or some shit.

>>5555500
>>5555326
from everything I know Austin is basically california liberal bullshit but the rest of texas is still based

>>5555007
Around here (most of the time) they act like you've just punched their child in the throat if you DARE ask them to remove their precious mistake from your path.

>>5554592
god, I hate people like you, going to gloat about no blacks being around next too?

it's funny that you are negatively responding to what's basically become a /pol/ thread with a very /pol/ image
