Okay, this s@#t is straight-up evil.

There is no way to go to a store and not experience the awkwardness of trying to maneuver around a shopping cart around someone else’s cart as they’re coming down the aisle. Why the hell are the aisles so narrow? So you’re forced to slow down, which potentially leads to you seeing more items, which might lead to another purchase.

And if that wasn’t enough, this is why checkout aisles are so narrow. If you’re stuck staring at some Orbit Gum you’re thinking about buying, it’s hard to get that thought out of your head as you’re stuck in a narrow space.
