Die Gittertiere scheinen komplexe ethisch Systeme zu entwickeln. [email protected]

I think I’m the Lawful Good. Sorry.

The lowly shopping cart is the only appliance that can absorb my gathered rage as I launch it full speed into its brethren

Golden corral

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago

I ride the cart to the corral, stepping off at the last minute such that I stop while the cart reaches warp 1 and makes the loudest noise possible.

I’m 40.

Disagree with these, except maybe LG, LE, NE, and CE.

Neutral good: Given directly to the next customer.
Chaotic good: Given to the poor.
Lawful neutral: Returned to a corral.
True neutral: Given to a staff member.
Chaotic neutral: Returned to another store.

This is one template I'm down to bring back

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

Chaotic Good baby, love when the parking lot around the corral is vacant so I can go for distance without risking hitting anyone.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

Wherw would "Cable tied it to the doorhandle of a car parked like an asshole." Sit?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

Shopping trolleys are a rich source of materials for the aspiring welding fabricator. Road signs can also be good but they get banged around.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

Some of the returns sound like you took it from there in the first place. Return to the poor? Did you take it from them? Return to a culvert? Did you find it in a ditch and then take it shopping??

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago

What would "return to corral and flip it over" fall under?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Years ago, my mate and I stole one, took it into the forest, and used it as a grill during the summer. Which alignment does that make us?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

Chaotic Neutral, you still technically returned it to nature

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

So Neutral Evil just means lazy bitch-ass trash?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

Where does "slammed into someone's car" fall?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (2 children)

What alignment are you if you just take it home?

For the record: I am chaotic good. I can accurately hit the inside of the corral from up to 150 feet away. 😤

True neutral

Returned to the poor

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

I used to do it with my car. Late at night, after store is closed, go to local supermarket, find unreturned trolleys, square them up with my car, line myself up, and push them along the car park like I was competing in some urban form of Curling.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 days ago (1 children)

True neutral implies you took it from the homeless and are giving it back to them.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

The true neutral taketh, and giveth back

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Which one is hop into the basket and take it for a joyride?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago

Chaotic Cool 😎

[–] [email protected] 13 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I'm "got the coin back that I put in the cart when I got it".

[–] [email protected] 11 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Yeah, this is a rather US-specific meme...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Spent the past couple weeks in France visiting my wife’s family, and was surprised that most of the stores had the coin locks but were not using them, as in they had all been disconnected so you didn’t need to use a coin to release them. I think the only store we needed coins at was E.Leclerc.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Interesting. Presumably, enough of their customers now show up without the appropriate coins, due to electronic payment methods being available otherwise, that they decided to not require coins.

Here in Germany, where we hold onto cash a bit more dearly due to our Stasi-past, I don't know any shop where I can take a shopping cart without sticking a coin in...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Yeah there's a few in Canada too that still use the coin. They usually will give you a coin to use if you go to customer service and ask. Most places just gave up though and abandoned that system. I wonder if it was costing them more to try to maintain or something. I'd imagine that people who have a cart tend to buy more, whereas if they're forced to use baskets because they don't have a coin, they might not buy as much. I know that's the case for me at least.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

I mean, I said "coin" but really I didn't even mean "coin" as in "currency" but "coin-shaped piece of plastic that I have for this purpose". The system has been in use here for decades now and I'd imagine that people using currency for carts are the exception. We all have the plastic substitute coins on our keychains. Was there a lot of pushback against the "coin operated" carts in Canada that nobody bothered with distributing replacement chips?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

A local shop here only has shopping carts, no baskets. You can get smaller shopping carts, and in fact even shopping carts for toddlers to push around, but you still need a coin for those.

And yep, I've genuinely been stood in front of that shop and went back home, because I didn't have an appropriate coin. I think, even twice already.
I could have bought a small item to have them hand me out coins and then done another loop with the shopping cart, but yeah, there was just no way, I'd waste that much time.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

In the US. I know exactly one store with the coin system. I love Aldi.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

I was going to say that it is quite common in Germany too but I guess the Germans brought it with them huh?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I'm on the good row, depending on the store and distance back. I have on one occasion delivered a cart back to the store via my car (a good mile or so away) - it was left in our neighborhood, I was doing it for myself and neighbors, not the store, so I don't know where that puts me. It's the opposite of true neutral, since presumably someone poor had used it and discarded it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago

I’d be more inclined to think teenagers took it for hijinks, but I’m not familiar with the neighborhood where you found it, of course

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I'm solidly neutral good, but have occasional deviations into lawful good and chaotic good territory.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

Yes, normally Neutral Good but will go Chaotic Good if the corral is empty or pretty much empty. I’m lawful good if I only have a free things or there is no corral, but in those cases I try to avoid bringing the cart back to the car.
