Why would you be mad about this? Are you really going to sit there and pretend that the shit we all did in the barracks was way better than this lady driving around on an electric shopping cart getting toasted on wine that was hidden in a Pringles can? Because if you were in my unit, I know for a fact, that you have no ground to stand on. Buncha heathen degenerates that every once in a while got shipped to another country to shoot at bad people...I digress.Was it unsafe? Yes. Was it illegal? Possibly. At the end of the day though, with how the world has been acting, with folks eating tod pods around this time last year and Oregonians not being able to pump their own gas, we're surprised MORE people don't end up in a Wal-Mart parking lot on those electric shopping scooter things getting plastered. Life is rough!So like we said, we're not even mad. The Witchita Falls lady wasn't even arrested, so maybe we can just chalk it up to everyone looking at her and saying:"You know Bob, she really shouldn't be doing this""I know Sally, but damnit all if I don't identify with her!""We all do Bob...we all do!"I'd much rather someone blow of some steam like this than for them to get behind the wheel of an actual vehicle while intoxicated. Those scooters travel at the speed of a moderately paced walk. The only person she'll end up hurting is herself if she gets too drunk to hold on to the damn thing.We will offer this disclaimer though because our legal office said:
"Enough is enough of you encouraging this type of behavior!!!"If you feel like you may need to get wine wasted in a Wal-Mart parking lot...maybe take a hot relaxing bath with a glass of wine instead.
It's not the end of the world and we hope this lady is allowed back into Wal-Mart soon because who here among us hasn't felt like saying "F*** it" and going for it?!
