A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

UK trolleys (carts) have a little hook below the handle where you can hang them. Do your carts not?

No. Here in America we just have a gun holster on the carts.

He forgot to mention the drink holder as well. Fits a 52oz medium beverage.

Then you should tip me as I'm American.

And we wouldn't want it any other way.

In America you can sneak a candy bar into a movie threater by putting it in the magazine slot of your pistol. This gets you out of paying $20 for a snickers bar.

They do have cup holders sometimes

No that would be nice! Plus it could easily be bolted on

Sadly Lidl trollies in the UK doesn't. At least not at my local.

Their trollies used to have plastic hooks fitted to the front of the trolly, but they've been removed for some reason 😪

Some places do. Whole Foods comes to mind; and I think those big plastic Target carts do too, IIRC
