Went to Lowe's the other day to grab some acetone. Knew exactly where to find it in the store, so showed up an hour after the store had opened and was immediately anxious due to how many folk were there. Further, they were mulling about like useless zombies with zero urgency to what they were doing or where they were going. Nearly got taken out by some random Karen popping out of an aisle without looking where she was going.
Got my acetone and went to checkout.
A dude that was in the process of paying failed to register he'd inserted the wrong end of his card TWICE before making the fumbling bumbling correction.
Checked out and immediately darted for the door.
Boy Scouts with their popcorn.

Meaning that I need to be on the road to get to my 0730 job at 0500 if I want to fully avoid their myriad (and seriously fucking excessive) number of stops.
If obesity truly is a problem in this country, why not make the fat li'l bastards walk a few hundred feet and congregate in a singular stop?
Fuck me sideways.
