Don't buy the divider! We are devided enough already as a society

[-] Mac@mander.xyz 12 points 1 month ago

this is true. we must instead strive to be vided.

That's why he's trying to remove it from a public area

Put two of them next to each other diagonally: \\
One escapes the other and it will be treated like a regular item.

It has to be won in battle.

[-] Num10ck@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

trying to buy isn't winning in battle. just start licking it romantically while maintaining eye contact.
or dip into your pants and scratch your ass with it.

or both.

It could be also a funny (although more expensive) idea to buy 100 of these things and bring a new one whenever you go to the store. So the deviders suddenly won't fit anymore in that little rail and the cashiers will go crazy how this is randomly happening every couple of days.

[-] flicker@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

This would work. I work in a new grocery store and we have enough to fit... they are barely contained. If there were suddenly more of them I wouldn't know what to do.

[-] 3ntranced@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Better yet, add identical but slight length variations so within a few days none of them fit.

[-] NABDad@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

I like the way you think.

[-] Cooljimy84@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Buy some short and some long.... Really mess with them !

[-] Rolando@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

You want to multiply dividers? Wouldn't that leave you with zero?

[-] Illogicalbit@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

Buying 1, no discount, buying 1000, no discount, buying 2499, no discount, buying 2500 or more … ok fine, you can have a discount. 😂

Late Friday evening at the checkout there's three of us in the queue. Guy at the front has two frozen pizzas, guy number 2 has a bottle of Vodka, guy number 3 (me), has a bottle of wine. None of us have used a divider, after all I'm not paying for his vodka and he's not going to buy my wine.

We're joined by a woman with a trolley full of chaos and she asks me if she can go in front as she's in a hurry.

"Sure, but I've only got this" she sees the other two singletons and grumbles. Then she notices the lack of dividers and shouts "WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE???" and proceeds to SLAM down dividers between us.

From then on, I never use dividers, just to see who in the queue is likely to erupt.

[-] NutWrench@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

You have to put the yellow divider between two OTHER yellow dividers!

[-] Illogicalbit@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Next step, add a barcode on the divider and then straight face tell them that’s part of your purchase. Wait for confusion to sink in.

Removing dividers is just socialism
