Stopped at Target to look for some shoes.

    Never seen it in continental Europe, but Primark is on a whole different level in the UK

      That is true, UK super- and hypermarkets were like this when I went to some of them. The attitude of customers is just weird.

        It’s not “weird” sadly, it’s increasingly normal

        And I’ve noticed the general UK public have gone utterly downhill in their respect for others over the past few years. No one cares about anyone else anymore. Cinemas are ruined, shopping is a nightmare. They’re all pricks.

          I work 4 on 4 off days then nights, which means I can go to the cinema off peak when there’s only a few other people there, it great.

            Nice

            My best movie memory ever was bunking off work one tuesday morning and going to see Mad Max Fury Road. It cost basically nothing, I had two pints of beer (the cinema had a bar for this screen) and no one else was there apart from me

            It was glorious

      I still have ptsd from some primark shops in uk…

      Scenes I saw are now how I picture the locust plague.

      How can some people be so unaware of basic society rules?

      I’ve never been into a Primark, but this looks very much like TK Maxx (which is what TJ Maxx is called here in the UK).
