Your right we only have so little time on this earth. So what's your hurry? Stop and smell the roses every once and awhile. Maybe then you may make to be the little old person at the supermarket!!!

Nah, just run your cart into her ankles. I mean it's one thing if she's actually to one side or the other, but to feel like you're suddenly in bullet time because some old twit decided to push her cart down the EXACT CENTER of the isle is not cool at all. Of course you could just ask her to move out of the way, but where's the fun in that? ;)

Yes it is rude.
When I was in a hurry, it would bother me too. But then I realized that one day I could be that little old lady and I hope others will be patient and kind to me.
She is doing the best she can. She could be medicated which causes reflexes to move slower or she could have health problems.
Be compassionate.

It might hurt the old lady's ankle if you hit her with the bottom of your cart. I've had that happened to me by some kid when I was at a supermarket with my girlfriend. It hurt ALOT. I even shed a tear or two...

It's rude, AND dangerous. If you run into her you could break her ankle and then you'd feel really bad (not to mention getting sued). Just go around her.....she has less time left than you do.

Ask me when you get to be her age [if you last that long without getting hit on the head with a cane!]

It is kinda rude....but its also Rude of her to be pushing it down the middle of the aisle so you cant drive past her also.

No but be prepared for sudden stops...it is rude, however, to fly past them, give them the finger and scream obscenities at them while youre passing them....
......I hate it when they leave their turn signals on all through the grocery section...
