I wait for the WALK sign, I keep it to no more than 5 mph over the speed limit, I use my blinkers, I never jump the line, I keep to the watering schedule, pass the SMOG test every other year, file accurate tax returns…

Champ…or Chump?

    Depends on who your asking. Some would call this being a ‘mindless NPC sheeple’ and others would call this ‘being a responsible and respectable member of society’. Check out the replies to the shopping cart litmus test. Some people justify their self interested assholery along the lines of ‘being a free thinker untainted by shame and societal expectations’. I’m of the opinion these people are douchebags without a shred of consideration or care for anything or anyone but themselves.

      Thank you for bringing up the shopping cart litmus test. I had conceptualized something similar before encountering the idea online. I’ve always grabbed a shopping cart from the parking lot on the way in, and will often pull carts out of parking spaces and return them before I leave. I was delighted to discover r/CartNarcs, needless to say!
