Shopping Cart Antics: Difference between revisions

Crazy'''Shopping Cart Antics''' are those crazy things characters do with shopping carts outside of itsthe carts' original purposes, whether they ride them or ram them into stuff.

* In the ''[[Discworld]]'' book [[Discworld/Reaper Man|Reaper Man]], you get a lot of varied shopping trolley shenanigans as those things are alive (and initially hiding it) due to rather plot-relevant events. But they're useful to store things in. And dangerous when they take off on their own, leaving people running behind them screaming about what's inside them. Or screaming about being inside them. One memorable instance is when one is hijacked and used to store the [[Butt Monkey|Bursar]] in - and it then takes off for the hills. A massive comedic [[Chase Scene]] (complete with [[A-Team Firing|misguided magic blasts]]) ensues. This is not the only such scene, but is one of the stand-outs. In short, there is a whole chunk of Reaper Man devoted to this trope.
