I see someone has been buying into the concept of small, local change. Respect.

they parked IN the corral? they made their choice.
Wow, I've never seen that. I might just go around and collect all the loose carts to put them behind that car.
like, when you see someone with a good idea, it's contagious
Going to be real, considering the lot has empty spots this feels like a dementia or related condition thing.
perhaps. or it could just be some random prick who couldn't be fucked.
Does it? I don't see any open spots in the picture.
I'm pretty sure there's an open space in the picture 3 or 4 cars down. Either way, there were better decisions they could make
I'm late to learning to drive, and I fear I could do this without realizing I've done it. But after this, I can tell you I wouldn't do it again.
I can already hear the “I don’t want anyone to ding my doors” complaints.
never seen on of these that would fit a car, always have a rail in the middle
Looks like Costco
That is 100% a Costco, and those parking lots are already godless places.
Lol I do appreciate the Costco size parking spaces. You'd have to be a really asshole to ding someone's doors in a Costco parking lot.
Yeah, Costco on a Saturday afternoon is the Mad Max of parking lots. Karens will prowl the lot a dozen times in search of a good spot, just to avoid parking behind the building. And god save you if you manage to be closer to an open spot than they are; They feel like they “deserve” the spot because they’ve been prowling.
Maybe this one did have a rail!
Exactly. Dumb person (or lazy? I don't know how full the closer spots are), but also bad design. If you make it wide enough, idiots might take advantage of it. Also, the center divider helps keep the carts aligned, so workers don't have to go in there and turn around dozens of sideways carts...
That puts this guy into a whole nother version of Satan.
I can guarantee they just throw every cart there in some random direction to get their car out.
Maybe it's like the grocery store I go to where you have to put money in the carts to unlock and they all lock together.
That'd make it 10x more annoying, but certainly still possible for them to be a dickhead about getting their car out. They'd just make it some other fuckers problem by chaining them in the middle of the lot.
That's why you add a bike lock to the front cart.
10/10 icing on the cake move.
Wouldn't the front cart need something to lock into anyway to release the quarter?
Reverse, mash the gas pedal. Wherever the carts skitter to, is where they land.
That's a good way to fuck up your paint, and your drive train if one of them goes under.
Do you really think somebody who parked in the cart corral cares about such things?
Potentially. Being an asshole doesn't mean you have foresight.
It absolutely infuriates me when people in the Costco parking lot don’t use the cart corrals, and just tip the front 2 wheels up on some curb. It’s so fucking lazy and selfish, but then that’s the Costco for you.
Also, what kind of asswipe parks in the cart corral? Oh, right, Costco.
I mean, where are we supposed to put them? ;)
Put wheel dollies under the car and wheel it into the cart storage area inside the store.
That's a great first step.
Second step is popping back in the store and getting the cheapest bike chain locks, or wire locks for luggage, and attaching the trolleys, closest to the car, to each other and the coral. Three locks should do it.
Third step would be even more vindictive. Maybe crossing some line, IDK. But while in the shop, pick up some nails or thumbtacks. I'll let what you do with the tacks be up to your imagination, but I'll bet the driver won't notice stuff on the ground behind the wheels in their rage over the locked trolleys.
Fourth step, move your car so that the situation is observable, and wait. Do not let the driver know about your existence.
bruh
None of the corrals round here would even fit a bike
Costco around here are that size. take up the whole spot and have no dividers.
If it didn't have a roof the one closest to my house would fit a car.
Punctuation.
Awesome :)
And Dutch angles.
