Used my favourite “or what” phrase today - Lord Curly
Didn't put my trolley back when I was done shopping today.

Left it with the front wheels propped up on an island in the car park so it wouldn't roll away.

Guy who looked like the picture of a person who doesn't mind his own business (goatee, shorts with sandals and socks, still wearing a baseball cap even though he looked to be pushing 60) basically tells me where to put the trolley back in one of those spaces in the car park where trolleys are supposed to be returned to.

I pull out my favourite "Or what?" line that I use to put the ball back in their court and put them on the defensive.

Works like a charm because yet again this person had no comeback and just dropped the issue without saying another word, just like everyone else I've used the line on if they try to tell me what to do or give me an "order".

You must be very proud of yourself not putting the trolley back where they should be. They are a pain in the backside for people in wheelchairs are blind people. Next time put it back where it should be and start being a decent human being instead of a pain in the backside.

The OP shouldn't be surprised if they return to the car one day and find the tyres flat, scratches down the side and windows smashed.

I can't see any value to this thread, possibly just a wind-up?
