Whats hilarious is, you go to the store buy plastic garbage bags, plastic ziplock bags, milk in plastic jugs, meat that is plastic wrapped, but the one plastic bag to carry them all is not allowed. Oh and you cant have a plastic straw to go with your plastic cup with a plastic lid.
Nothing hilarious about it...we elect people who, believing they are our betters, put these B.S. "green" laws into place, laws that disproportionately impact those on the lower income strata...while claiming to be "fighting poverty".
In Philly, grocery stores can't have bags anymore so they really nailed the intense shame you feel if you forget your bag. I now have about 90 reusable bags that I've had to purchase while the cashier gives me that crazy judgemental Fred Armison look.
Jesus christ I was about to leave a comment making fun of people like you but figured, "Nah, no way somebody will be _that_ dumb and unfunny. You'd have to be a _characture_ of a dumb hick to really make this joke still... 10 YEARS LATER." And here you are. You genuinely think this comment was truthful huh? I guess that means you shop at shitty stores and can't afford the nice ones, so you have this cute little theory going in your head that the jokes you hear are real. If you're confused and scared, why don't you face your fears and go to the nicer grocery store and see for yourself?
yup, I remember that when I lived in Oregon. Then you'd have to buy some crappy 're-usable' bag with the store's logo on it to add to your HUGE collection you have at home or in your car, Now that i live in a easy bag state I STILL bring my bags in. People must think I'm such a hippy and little do they know it's just PTSD--- PORTLAND traumatic stress disorder-- ha!
I was at a thrift store and this old lady was real nice to me and we talked about a bunch of stuff and then when I checked out I realized I had no bag but smaller places are allowed to offer bags in NJ and the lady happily gave me one but the old lady got real salty and needless to say I lost a friend that day.
This happened to me on a Colorado ski trip at a Walmart. We flew in, rented the car, made a Walmart run to feed 10 people for a week and they had zero bags. Ended up buying a box of kitchen sized trash bags for our groceries.
Grocery stores having bags to give you is a recent development in the grand scheme of things... People did fine back when the average family had more members and there was no plastic at all...
@@0ooTheMAXXoo0 also Walmart is a recent development in the grand scheme of things, so really @pianofixer898 & friends should just have been happy to hack their frozen turnips outta the ground! 🤣🦕
They all have a policy to follow the fellows should allowed you to go and get your grocery bags and put your stuff aside with a note saying don’t take but some people just don’t think of such a simple thing to do
I never bring bags when I go grocery shopping, I just tell them to put it the cart, I have a trunk that is where I can stick the groceries, I have my own cart at home to offload groceries from my trunk :D No bags needed
I remember getting our turkey each year from the Zupans in SW Portland as a kid and we were lower middle class and it’s funny now realizing how extremely expensive and fancy it is for regular grocery shopping. People think Whole Foods is expensive and pretentious, Zupans destroys that lol
Paper bags are so much better! We had modern society before we had plastics... All the food and products we used to package just fine without plastics. A crazy way to poison ourselves!
Plastic bags were popularized just 30 yrs ago and already society can't imagine a world without them... Paper bags were invented in the 1850s and didn't even have a _bottom_ for decades. Believe it or not, people bought and sold things before 1850... hmm what solution could they have possibly used? 🤔
Plastic bags and vape stores were banned in New York State as "common sense emergency c*ronavirus mandates." Because apparently smoking (instead of vaping) and re-using the same bag stops "the deadly virus" remember?
I remember as a kid, back in the Sixties, going shopping with my mom and seeing something like this taking place with one of the other shoppers. Not sure how it turned out.
As someone who works in retail in New Jersey, people always look at me like I have 3 heads when I tell them we charge for a paper bag. Hey, Don't shoot the messenger.
If you're going to be high and mighty about single-use bags, then leave the empty wholesale cartons on the shelf like Aldi's does for people to use instead of a bag.
Same up in East Durham in October. Here in Charlotte, NC half the cashiers double plastic bag EVERYTHING. In NY they not only shamed me, but charged for paper bags...solid yankee behavior.
In Texas we have a state law against cities making any local ordinances about bags, but I shop at Aldi, where they carry bags but you have to pay for them. So I always make sure I have a few Aldi bags in my car, and I use them wherever I shop for groceries. In fact, I've been using my own bag since the days when my city was allowed to have a bag ordinance, and sometimes I use that one at Aldi. It's just not that hard, and yes, I do judge you if you just get plastic bags all the time.
We use the plastic or paper grocery bags when we scoop the kitty litter and to line our v Small garbage cans in the restrooms. Some people do have such uses for the bags that you may not realize. That’s why it’s typically best to not judge people for such things.
@@alleycat616 I don't think there's anything wrong with being judgmental, even though I do forget sometimes. But I'm willing to take my lumps for a better world.
Our entire existence is based on judgement. Telling people to not be judgemental is basically telling them to accept your dysfunction without review.@@dalegreer3095
What makes that so funny (for me) is that this is our reality in 2024. It completely blew his mind that someone could commit such a horrendous act as to forget a bag. And the confusion over the customer's gender..."man" is spot on and illustrates the absurdity of the world we live in.
In Colorado, I don't understand why, when forgetting one's reuseable bags, we are being charged...for paper bags. The point was to cut out the plastic. The paper is both biodegradable and compostable. The law is poorly designed.
That pause to clarify his gender gets me every time.
IT'S MA'AM.
WORD 😂😂😂😂😂
hard to believe the pronoun thing was a thing that long ago.

I watch this just for freds facial expression and that Indian music sound. 😂
Yea, it is rather funny HI
Me too LMAOOOOO
Same. I'm glad I'm not alone.
Not Indian
More middle eastern ptsd flashback
@@ausinasmith96 that is an Indian instrument from what i know. Either way, it's funny and your comment brought me back.
I love that this is on the International Plastics channel and not on a channel dedicated to Portlandia.
Yeah... What's up with that? And this isn't exactly an endorsement of plastic bags either. 🤔
Haaaaaahajaha 👍
His face is perfect “you forgot your bag? You don’t have it? “ all
With a smile. Haha
the moment where he waits for him to clarify his gender until he says "man" lmaoo
lol
Carrie is so good at this style of humor. 'My eyes don't forget to open, my heart doesn't forget to beat.' 😂😂😂
This is me at work every time I make a mistake
Passive aggression with a smile 😂
I love how they decided to put the “new episodes” thing at the end, which we’ll now see until the end of time.
Same in Albany NY, when I forget my bags I just put the stuff back in my cart and throw it in the trunk.
Portlandia is one of the funniest shows ever.
Fred forgets the words "person" and "customer" still exist.
"person" is derogatory, "Man" is not. A "persona" is a mask or character, lmaoooooo
customer sounds so capitalist, you pig. this is a cooperative.
this absolutely happened to me, I asked for one bag because I had not enough and it was a whole thing; I was shamed into buying little tissue baggies.
you forgot your bag?
This also happened to me in Boulder, CO in 2007.

you nailed it !!! oh sorry, you shrink wrapped it !!!
YEP! Plastic everywhere just not for your convenience.
Now we have plastic inside of us. Plastic is going to take over the world, and we're all gonna die, man! We're all gonna die!

Same with Delaware. Glad I moved from that liberal shit hole.
Same in Canada. It's infuriating.
Paper bags work great and are sustainable!
@@0ooTheMAXXoo0 yea, until they rip 3 second after picking them up.
seriously? You do feel intensive shame? I feel intensive rage in these situations.
Lol at Fred breaking almost immediately on the intercom
Stuff the groceries into your shirt. Make a "firewood bundle" with your arms.
This was considered an absurdly extreme situation with absurdly extreme characters. Now it's a common situation with your average people.
Yes the world became Portland
The world is big, lil american fellas
lol go away boomer

He was wearing 3 shirts, could have taken one off, tied a knot in it and used it as a bag.

I take major insurance.
This scene is very well timed.
Back in the day this was considered parody, now its the norm.
I was at a thrift store and this old lady was real nice to me and we talked about a bunch of stuff and then when I checked out I realized I had no bag but smaller places are allowed to offer bags in NJ and the lady happily gave me one but the old lady got real salty and needless to say I lost a friend that day.
I know it’s been 5 days but time heals all wounds. Heh
Did they accept your plastic card or paper money?
😂
That was a really really good story. I'm really glad this was in the comments
That’s a very beautiful story.
You should write a book about it.
"I don't get in my car and forget the car" lol
I wish I could count exactly how many times “me no-no bringbags” goes through my head every day
120% accurate parody of life here at times.

@@0ooTheMAXXoo0 No, they used paper bags.
I’m in CO and major stores have to have them, it’s usually just an extra 10 cents for bags
They should’ve had paper bags available at the least
This just happened to me.. 🤦🏼♀️ Nothing better than getting publicly shamed by a hipster with a nose ring and dreads. Oh yeah, that’s living folks..

:17 Fred looks at him like,"What even ARE you"?😆
As a resident of Portland.... I must say.... this is too accurate LOL
I love when I roadtrip to other states and things are sane still with bags and straws
My 11 year old daughter does Armisen impressions all the time (he is very beloved in our home) and it males me laugh until I pee.
She sounds very talented.

❤😂
I remember having a similar hassle decades ago when I'd make the shocking request to forego a bag.
i love how this whole plastic bag ban just resulted in thicker plastic bags. scam
Love this!
Something tells me if you live in Portland this could really happen.
I don't live in Portland and it happened to me.
Portland has changed a tad bit since this was made, much worse things can happen now.
Now this is every store in Colorado as they have outlawed bags.
“Well I’ll tell her…” 😆
He's wearing a Zupan's apron lol. That's a real yuppie Grocery store in the Portland area. They gave good shit but goddamn they're expensive
Just steal the items like poc.

The best part of this video is who posted it 😂
Thanks for pointing that out. lol. That is the best part.
Portlandia predicted the future. So many places just don't have any bags at all anymore.
Plastic bags were popularized just 30 yrs ago and already society can't imagine a world without them...

Portland Bag Hack: If you forget your bag, go ask the produce person for a box.
They've begun to charge for bags here, but it's an honor system to pay for them. Apparently I have no honor.
A shopper without a bag is like wheat without the chaff
Even after 9 YEARS, this is still unfortunately relevant🤦♂️
Everyone who works in retail understand that this is so accurate 😂
Brilliant!
In real life.. most people would absolutely lose their minds 😂😂😂
I just buy fewer items, and carry them.
Is that weird?
How do I get that Indian music soundtrack? I want to play it anytime someone asks a stupid question as I give them a perplexing look.
I remember as a kid, back in the Sixties, going shopping with my mom and seeing something like this taking place with one of the other shoppers. Not sure how it turned out.
Could you please find out what happened and then post another comment to let us all know. Thank you very much.

That squint he did reminds me too much of Gilbert Gottfried. And I'm okay with that. XD
I almost died laughing at this😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤ so grateful 🙏
It’s like this at a bunch of places in Austin.
This actually happened to me at a natural grocers. The reaction of the checkout guy wasn't that far off from this🤦

@@PeugeotRocket ALDI! or ALDI?
@@PeugeotRocketWhoa...easy there...😂😮😅
Fred's expression 😂😂😂😂
The comments seem to suggest this is a common real-world situation now, but I’ve never encountered a grocery or any shop with no bags.
This happened to me and eventually they ended up saying "we can get you a BOX"
Every time my partner does something crazy, I hear this song - anyone know what song it is? or where I can find more than 1 second of it?

How about them prices jack?
Disposable plastic IS a scourge because of nanoplastic particles though.
Portlandians are just better than we are. We just have to accept it. 😅
I remember the days when bruhs used to run around in two polo shirts with the collars popped.
Lmfao this is real life
What is going on with Fred’s sideburns?
Maybe this explains why a store cashier seemed to get smart with me when I asked for a bag on a recent trip to NYC.
Same up in East Durham in October. Here in Charlotte, NC half the cashiers double plastic bag EVERYTHING. In NY they not only shamed me, but charged for paper bags...solid yankee behavior.

It's sad that this is real now. Good thing the hand baskets are still free
Hurray for ZUPANS
