A friend of mine used to use plastic grocery bags as trash bags, which he threw out daily. Then Philadelphia banned plastic bags, and the local Target switched to providing virtually free reusable bags.

Now he uses reusable bags as trash bags, throwing them out daily.
As so many of us do here on rdrama, I follow @TracingWoodgrains for my entertainment
I also follow him on Twitter, and there's a funny discussion there.
Trace talks about his 'friend' (clearly him, dramatards don't have friends) who uses his re-usable store bags as garbage bags.
I don't do this personally because our store bags suck peepee. I just throw the store bags directly in the trash once I get home to cut out the middleman and buy more when I get there, they're like ten cents.
Now, people start taking offense. I don't know why.
Trace gets into the weeds with one of them.
It's weird seeing people get so mad over like thirty cents of bags a week or something. This is an amount of money that takes, what, an equal number of seconds to earn? If it was thirty dollars a week, sure. That's a dumb spend. But who spends time agonizing over less than a dollar per week?
Trace neurodivergentally owns this guy.
This guy is genuinely r-slurred though. Who re-orients their life over a couple of cents of plastic bags per week? 'Your friend [you] is dumb because he's spending a hundred bucks a week on McDonalds' might be a good point, 'your friend (definitely Trace) wastes twenty cents a week, what an r-slur' is !peakpoors thinking
I genuinely think these people might just be !r-slurs
'In their pack'. Now you gotta carry around a backpack to carry your 'reusable' bags? What next, should I wear cargo shorts so I can keep more bags in them and maybe wear brightly coloured velcro sneakers so I can make sure I never lose them (only an r-slur would wear nice black shoes, very easy to accidentally lose).
'Give your bags to the homeless so they can re-use them.'
Or rather 'go talk to meth-addled half-people who shit on the street so you can give away your thirty cents worth of bags or you're a monster'.
Is this some envirotard thing? Like taking your re-usable bags to the supermarket is the leftoid equivalent of communion?
This r-slur doesn't even know what re-usable bags are.
Doubles down which I can respect. Even if you're wrong don't admit it, just say the same thing louder.
But incredible stuff. I appreciate Trace saying even boring shit about his friend's life (definitely him lmao) can stir up r-slur drama on Twitter.

I have literally never used grocery bags or a cart. I carry all my groceries in my arms because I'm not buying random garbage at the store.

I haven't grocery shopped in 6-7 years now. Wagies bring it to me for free anyway.
