I wish I could pirate food.

I mean, they give you a speedy cart with wheels and everything...

Not anymore. They recently added those locks that lock up the wheels when they get too far away from the store. And they also threw out all the shopping baskets.

I hate stores with a passion that do this. If I'm getting a basket amount of stuff why must I either juggle everything in my hands or shove a cart with broken wheels around?

I live in a pretty conservative area. I think they were stealing them because they refuse to buy reusable bags since plastic bags were banned.

You can. It would just be the old school version also called theft.

I live on the top floor of an apartment with no balcony. I wish I could pirate a house.

Replace your floor with garden plots.

Or maybe just go up to the roof? They said top floor.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

My apartment building doesn't have a flat roof. And has shingles. I wish I could pirate a roof.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

I mean... you probably could if you became an actual pirate.

Foraging and stealing :)
