No native English speaker would say "do these get any bigger" rather than "...come any bigger"
So I'm assuming the shopper was a non-native speaker and the shelf stacker was JUST HORRIBLY RACIST OH MY GOD IM SO ANGRY I'M GOING TO WRITE A STRONGLY WORDED LETTER TO SOMEONE
Edit - apparently I forgot that Americans are fucking retarded πππ
Yes, every native English speaking Walmart shopper are perfectly fluent, masters of the linguistic arts. They are known throughout the Americas to be amongst the classiest and highest educated group of shoppers known to man. Even the ones known to procreate with their sisters are likely to have a degree. Likely, a masters. These are stats and known facts of the highly esteemed shoppers of Walmart
Really underrated comment.
I take it you havenβt had the opportunity to meet anyone that grew up on the southern USA.
βGetβ would be absolutely be colloquial for what you said.
Yeah, I'm honestly shocked he's never met a person who doesn't speak perfect English who was native. I was the electronics guy at walmart and the most common question id get about speakers, and the most common wording was 'do it get loud?'
People talk how they want, simple as that lol.
Well? Do it?
People donβt think it be like it is, but it do.
it do
Weird as shit take.
Then the punchline would have been βno they donβt cum at all, THEYβRE DEAD, you sick pervert.β
Great... Now I'm coming. Thanks a lot!
Can I interest you in a turkey in these trying cums?
As someone whose had the priviledge working both in a call centre & retail for several years... you're wrong.
Most is local colloquialisms, where regions sometimes substitute words or phrases for others.
And then there's the "native English speakers" that are straight up idiots, and butchering the language constantly...
The amount of South Londoners that say "arced" instead of "asked" is too damn high.
I'm a native speaker and not an American, but I didnt find this weird. I would probably say "do you have any bigger ones" not ask about the turkey cum.
Tell me you've never met an American without telling me.
Considering your last sentence, you might be American, check your ancestry.
