nbbttt: talking of supermarkets, you know that some of them have a "quiet hour"

to create a calmer shopping experience, particularly for those with autism or sensory sensitivities. during these times, they dim the lights, turn off music and intercom announcements, and reduce other loud noises like checkout beeps.

well they should reserve an hour for people that are fully spatially aware, like me for example, so i don't have to put up with f**kers that stop slap bang in the entrances because they forgot if they've left the gas on or their bag for life or something.

also those f**kers that decide to do an instant 180 with their trolley rammed full of cadburys celebrarions and slabs of pop as i am walking behind them. or the one's that just block the f**king aisle up while tring to read the nutritional advice on a pack of jammy dodgers. and full shop f**kers using the self service check-outs.

or those maggots that can't even get out of the store before they begin devouring a krispy kreme donut (god that's painful to type) or a sausage roll. i even saw one maggot furiously gnawing away at an xl block of cathedral city cheddar sat behind the wheel of his car like he'd not eaten for a week.

just one moron free hour a week will do it please, that's all i'm asking for. sort it out knapper.
