Goin' down the aisle feelin' bad
What could be more depressing than food shopping alone?
You can't buy half of the items at the supermarket because they come in sizes unwieldy for a (non-bullemic) individual. Couples shop together all around you, taunting you with their happy domesticity and ability to creatively use squash. Some of the loners are on the phone, checking on whether it's OK to have stirfry twice in a week. As opposed to the working environment, everyone's heart seems to be on their sleeve at the supermarket.
What's worse than putting up with that?
Putting up with it at the Soviet Safeway, home of moldy navel oranges and no goddamn Jiffy cornbread mix!
