How unlucky am I? These past 5 years I got hit by a shopping cart 4 times, and at the same store. Tonight someone hit my lower leg, just above the achilles tendon, with a shopping cart accidently from behind. About 4 months ago I has hit in the exact same way and in the exact same spot on my leg, by a different person from behind. I was in the front of the line those both times. Last time I was actually hit twice in the exact same spot on my leg about 1 minutes apart. About 5 years ago someone in the exact store, rolled a shopping cart on my ankle from behind and just walked off and said sorry, and I ended up going to the hospital with a contusion on my ankle. Am I unlucky. Is this karma?

Look more threatening. Don't be one of those harmless, friendly looking people.

Be one of us.

Be one of the people who look just shy of angry. Look like one of those people you don't want to be in range of when they snap.

Let me guess, Wal-Mart, right? It's not karma, you just aren't being a good defensive driver. And I tend to hunt for groceries at night, so I just get run over by herds of wild pallet jacks and forklifts.

I look and dress like Otzi the Iceman. So fat people know if they run me over, they might get hunted and used for bait to catch saber toothed tigers.

Best Buy. I was just standing waiting in line.

I had that happen to me at the grocery store. Stupid woman hit me twice in the ass with the cart. I looked at her said, "hit me again and you're going to have a problem." So she hit me again and I just grabbed her cart and pushed it into her and said rather loudly, "did you like that? Knock it off".

:cool:

I probably have too, but I'm not keeping a count nor do I remember because that shit is trivial.

It irks me a bit when I'm in the main lane of a grocery store and some dunderhead comes bolting out from an aisle. If I don't stop, I would end up ramming into their cart, but what makes it worse is that they usually give me the stink eye like I'm getting in their way. o_O

When I repeatedly got run over by car after car, the best advice someone gave me was stop playing in the middle of the highway.

I stopped trying to be nice at the grocery store. People don't pay attention, block the whole aisle, cut you off. Now I just go straight ahead. If someone gets in front of me then I ram them.

Don't like it? Pay attention to what the hell you are doing.

You went to the hospital... for a bruise? Seriously? Please tell me it wasn't the *emergency* room that you went to.
