Tracy72 Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 when somebody runs over your feet...ankles and rams your butt with a cart for hte umpteenth time...or just go on and ignore.... I ignore most of the time...but if they are behind me a while and keep it up I turn around and give them the glare...and ususally they say sorry..
Gporter34 Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 It depends on how long I've been shopping. If it's early, I have more patience.lol If I am in line, I have already been there about 3 hours, yeah, I would say something.
disneytati Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 Oh, my... My aunt freaks out for anything... She'll end up fighting with someone. I just hope we don't get arrested and deported!!
Gporter34 Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 I have only gotten into what I call "a little incident" one time. I was pulling that flat bed cart I use at WalMart, a lady reached over and tried to take one of the Hummer r/c cars off of it because they had run out of them. The only thing I could think was the look on one of my boys' face when one got one and he didn't.lol I pushed her hand away and told her those were mine because I got there early and got them.lol
Angelseyes28 Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 Generally I just let it go but if they keep bumping me over and over it ticks me off and I just stand there and hold up traffic. Doesn't take but one time and they get the point:D
Booterbunz Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 LOL I won't say anything but will give the look on the 1st offense! 2nd time it happens by the same person, they may not get to move and I will stand in place if I'm not in a hurry just like Angelseyes does! LOL They usually will apologize or smack their lips and I'll just keep on going on my way! LOL
diane175 Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 I am with gporter- if it is early then I am pretty patient, but the longer the day wears on the less I begin to take! Usually I just look at them and say "excuse me!". Usually they back off. lol
kmbrly Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 It depends on if they're apologetic. If they're sincere, I'm pretty patient. If they say nothing, and have run me over a couple of times, I will say something sarcastic like, "That cart may operate a whole lot smoother if you'd stay off of my feet", or "You could push that easier if you'd stay out of my @ss!!" All depends on how early it is, and how much caffeine I've had.
Gumball Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 For me it depends on how hard they hit me. A light bump will get them a look, anything harder will at the least get a glare and at the most a few choice words my 6 yr. old shouldn't hear.
genoandkiddo Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 It depends if they say sorry, or excuse me then I just say that's alright, but if they don't. OOOOOHHHHHHHHH. That is one of my biggest pet peeves. People who don't say sorry or excuse me are rude and don't care about other peoples feelings. I shout 'FOR RUDE" and go about my business.
DealFreak05 Posted October 16, 2005 Posted October 16, 2005 LOL, Never happened to me. I would probably ignore it for a little while, then Id say something after that.
treasure60 Posted October 16, 2005 Posted October 16, 2005 Umm,,hitting my ankle will have me saying "OUCH" quite loudly,,,,sensitive there. If you bump me more than once? Count on me lagging back and staying behind.
Guest DigDoug Posted October 16, 2005 Posted October 16, 2005 Yeah, I'll say something if it is out of complete disregard for me. If it's an accident, then I just smile and let it go.
outnumbered Posted October 16, 2005 Posted October 16, 2005 I'll turn and look if I get hit...if it was totally accidental and the person sincerely apologizes, that's ok. If it was iffy, or if the person doesn't say sorry or says it in a really obnoxious way, I glare.
josetann Posted October 16, 2005 Posted October 16, 2005 Every time that happens to me, I turn around and say "Jeannie, I wish you'd stop hitting me!" (Jeannie being my wife).

orangedaisy Posted October 16, 2005 Posted October 16, 2005 I usually mumble something and if they hear me, oh well.
starshine Posted October 16, 2005 Posted October 16, 2005 If someone is doing it over and over I say something I can't stand rude people. And someone needs to say something to them once in awhile.

elena_398 Posted October 16, 2005 Posted October 16, 2005 Im usually a smart butt. My response is usually : " Im sorry was I in your way?". VERY SARCASTICALLY. LOL
genoandkiddo Posted October 16, 2005 Posted October 16, 2005 Im usually a smart butt. My response is usually : " Im sorry was I in your way?". VERY SARCASTICALLY. LOL Do you mind if I use that one?
elena_398 Posted October 16, 2005 Posted October 16, 2005 Go for it! Its just sarcastic enough to prove a point, yet not mean enough to deem a response from them. lol
geekgirldany Posted October 17, 2005 Posted October 17, 2005 geez we were in big lots one time and this guy got pissed because me and my mom would not get out of his way in a aisle quick enough. There were some kids in front of us and they were just playing around. My mom was waiting on them to move. This guy just started pushing us and the kids out of way. My mom said "well do you want through or what?" He said "get out of the way". I called him a asshole heh
happysunshine28 Posted October 17, 2005 Posted October 17, 2005 If it is crowded I dont say anything. If it aint I dont either, I just follow them and do the same back. lol just kidding, but I want to .
abram87 Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 I am pretty timid, and I usually don't say anything. Anyways, I am super clumsy, and I am more likely to run over my own feet.
Guest Deals4Me Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 I do say something if they dont... USUALLY way scarcastic if when I look at them waiting for my apology and dont get one... Somethign to the effect of: Thats okay sweetheart, at least some of watch where we're going or manners arent you're strong point are they hun? In that annoying sickly sweet voice.
JazzMama Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 I can usually tell when it's on purpose or not. If it is, I move to the side and as they pass say, "My God, can you believe some people" ... smiling the whole time.
elena_398 Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 I try to hold my tongue, but sometimes if people are purposely being that rude, then you have too.
