T's Blog Point Zero Zero One One
My love of all things smaller than me I’m sure has been widely recognized by all around me.
And I do not mean to bang on about it…
However,
After at least one or two prior encounters,
I have just experienced another…
Which confirms…
ALDI is not only the place for bargain groceries (an easy saving of $20-$30 a week for single shoppers – all edible and have not broken out in a rash or anything so far) But it is also the breeding place of feral children.
Everytime I go there, and there is a child there, they are being outrageous!
Not always swarming in children, normally quite eerily quiet – which is a pleasant serene getaway whilst doing domestics, but honest to god, if I child is there, they are fungus growing by the microsecond!
I’m not sure if they’re pumping some weird gas into the stores, but wow!
Previously I have encountered a screaming young girl, pretty little navy dress, red bow in her hair and long dark locks. A little woglike chinadoll really. But, as soon I entered the store, you could here THAT pitch. THAT pitch of a little princess chucking a tantrum. She didn’t let up… and I believe was not going to for at least a fortnight. So I went up one aisle, back down and unloaded my spaghetti noodles, chocolate and tuna and departed.
Second encounter was a junior thug in the making. I really really wanted to hit this child. Not smack as if to teach him a lesson, but actually hit him in the nuts. He was taking great delight in scraping the excess washing detergent powder off the top of the boxes and waiting for people to walk near him so he could flick it over them, and their groceries. I had my eye of him as I came up the aisle, and quietly suggested to the little nugget of shit – that he better not – so he spat! On the floor! Right next to me! I literally choked on the air I just breathed in! WTF! Lucky his mother was right there.
Today, a little busier being a long weekend and all, but mainly filled with old couples to be quite honest.
And if you’re not an ALDI regular, as previously mentioned – it’s quiet. Very quiet – No ads, music, radio… nothing. Just the noise of its customers.
But, again, there was this one child…
Mum was there, no Dad that I could see, and Mum looked pregnant again, so was in that – let’s just get this shit done so I can get home and put my kankles up kinda head space. You could see that look in her eye and just by the way she moved, that lazy, yet determined walk to get to the end of each aisle without completely flippin out.
That scary but controlled kinda aura around her.
Her menace of a son obviously trying his best to distract mum from her “state” kept pulling on mum’s long dress, with no response from Mum. He looked back a couple of times, as he proceeded to wrap himself up in her long skirt and peered around to see me, also ignoring him. I just wanted my sparkling mineral water. 65c for 1.25 litre!
Obviously not getting the attention he wanted he wandered off.
I must have been the only one watching him…
I could see it happening before it happened.
He found another long skirt…
Not his mothers…
And from the back
Crawled straight underneath it!
All you could hear throughout the store,
was…
this four or five year old voice yell…
Oh YUCK!
From under another ladies skirt!!!
I nearly choked on air again!
Everybody heard the “Oh Yuck” and saw this feral child crawling out from a ladies skirt!
Possibly thinking it was his own mothers skirt…
Until they saw another lady (The sound of her sons voice obviously broke the mum’s trance) and she was now pulling her son out of this poor, yet caring older ladies skirt!!!
I’m next to the toot paper in hysterics!
He copped it! A swift hand to his little punk ass!
Ouch!
Again, with the open display of what many may call child abuse (I’m all for it!) ALDI returned to it’s silent state.
Except for me, who all of a sudden realised that my laughter and scoffing was the only thing that could be heard…
So I reached for my toot paper, wiped my eyes dry and checked my shopping list and progressed on to hunt down flyspray
I chuckled internally for the rest of my groceries – ha – ALDI entertainment strikes again!
