This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

Anon is often crazy.
Anon is often depressed.
Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

In Germany (and other parts.od Europe as well to be fair) carts need you to put a coin in them to unchain them from their bay, which you get back when you chain them back up - so yeah, kinda, if you don't put it back you loose your euro

Same in Canada, (I hate that I need a loonie to shop with dignity).

Even so, people still leave their carts around. And really that is even worse.

Same in the Netherlands, and I pretty much never see stray shopping trolleys anywhere around here. Seems to work really well.
