Title: So my mom asked a hell of a question today.
Post by: The Hand That Fisted Everyone on January 21, 2008, 03:37:24 PM
We were riding down the street, and we saw two homeless people walking by with some shopping carts, and my mom axed me:

"Why do homeless people like carts"

and I was going to say "To keep their stuff in" but I haven't really seen any homeless people with "stuff".

So why do they like shopping carts? befuddlement

They hope to get arrested for shoppingcartlifting and get a nice warm jail cell.

My health teacher said a lot of homeless people are schizophrenic so they probably think it's a jet or something.

To carry cans in until they turn them in for money at the recycling center

LOL

I think your health teacher is the one with a disorder.

I've seen homeless people with things in their shopping cart. It's probably for recyclables to recycle for money. The homeless you've seen haven't collected anything yet.

They want to look rich so they walk around the world with a shopping cart to show that they're ready to purchase anything in the world.

Ironic"

An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
And isn't it ironic... don't you think

It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought... it figures

Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
"Well isn't this nice..."
And isn't it ironic... don't you think

It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought... it figures

Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up
In your face

A traffic jam when you're already late
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn't it ironic...don't you think
A little too ironic...and, yeah, I really do think...

It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought... it figures

Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Life has a funny, funny way of helping you out
Helping you out

Also, I agree with James. They race at night.

Maybe they use the carts to put less stress on their legs, much as an elderly person uses a walker.
