Is this possible ?

Think it thru

thexmadxtopxhatter · 05-16-2012, 09:11 PM

First off, shopping carts can't bend that far. If you've ever pushed a long stack of carts they'll only give like a couple feet to each side. Let alone a full circle!

mgenet · 05-16-2012, 09:12 PM

Oh, yeah, like crop circles!
Cool as a moose.

tazzboy · 05-16-2012, 09:12 PM

I highly doubt that.

leftyguitarman · 05-16-2012, 09:13 PM

I pushed carts at a grocery store in high school. They cannot bend like that, even if they're plastic. When I would push 20 at a time, they could only move a couple feet over. So it's fake.

I call Photoshop

442 SLASH · 05-16-2012, 09:14 PM

Wiat maybe they are those new shorter basket carts?

Nope. I pushed those in high school too and they're even worse than the regular carts. If you try and turn those little ones when they're stuck together, they pop away from one another. It's shopped.

mgenet · 05-16-2012, 09:16 PM

I'm telling you; it's aliens doing the crop circle thing.
How else could it actually really, like really man, happen
unless aliens did it.

FLICKOFLASH · 05-16-2012, 09:17 PM

I was thinking you have to start with each cart front to back is large circle and move each into one another at same time .How would you pull those apart if it is real ?

Bigfoot410 · 05-16-2012, 09:18 PM

They look like those smaller, taller carts. They don't fit together very snuggly. I think it's possible

Maybe.....

I get billions of cat prints on my Jeep all the time. I see NO alien footprints on that car. They're probably even bigger than cats!

You wouldn't, it's not real. Trust me, it's not real. I am a veteran cart pusher.

Yes, because your carts are the same as every other store.

Circles can be done. While I was in England last, there was a circle of shopping carts in a Tesco (supermarket) parking lot. It was quite funny as people were trying to figure out how it was done and who did it. A store assistant said someone did it as a prank, possibly a former employee.

Here is an article about some circles using shopping carts.

Well if it is real then someone has unlocked the achievement for Troll Level 100!

Really, who gives a sh!t?

Me.... It provides an intrinsic understanding of my current cart theory that the universe exists as a series of looped carts that interact, with the big bang a result of the instability of using castor-styled wheels that frequently wobble and temporarily corrupt the dynamics of nearby hyper-loops (as in Harmony's post).

Ratstar · 05-17-2012, 09:39 AM

Cool idea either way

Shopped.

Not saying cart circles can't happen. Just that the one in this photo didn't happen.

It is real. I seen someone do that to a Hummer in a WalMart parking lot. They left abunch of bleeding heart flyers on the windshield. Stop Destroying the Enviornment. Save the Whales..... It was funny.

AXE · 05-17-2012, 05:31 PM

I can do it.

But y'all knew that already.

FrankieOliver · 05-17-2012, 05:34 PM

I think it can be done. The glass is half full today.
