Far from being a degenerate..I don't give anyone undeserved shit and I don't take anyones either.

If Mr Chicago had walked out of the restroom and said something like "Hey Buddy, thats my cart you've got there" or something equally polite (in the US sense of the word) I would've apologised and got another. However, like I said, if he gave me a mouthfull straight off the bat then he can either kiss my arse for his cart or I would go toe to toe in the supermarket. I wouldnt let him think I was some pussy that he could just shout down.

Then you'd be going toe to toe everyday in the supermarket..You can only do that a few times before they lock you in a cage.. Thats probably where you belong. You sound like common white trash..You embarrass everyone from the UK Rushman..So do me a favor- Next time someone hears your accent and asks you where you are from? Do us all a favor and say Australia. I for one don't want to be associated with you in any way.
