Eh?

Wait, hang on- I thought it was two massive grammatical gaffs, but the more I read it.. is it just ridiculously confusing syntax to the point that it makes the writer look deficient?

Or maybe I'm just a big idiot.

Yep, fink so.

It genuinely is me just being a massive idiot. I'm more okay with that than I am the other outcome.

I probably should have read the whole thing before becoming outraged. What am I, a Sun reader?

Lol. It is confusing though. It only makes sense after you read the article. They should have reworded it.

Dog-shit's an extreme example, but would any of us put our outdoor shoes on top of the kitchen work-surface/table etc.? It's just filthy.

Not thought about this before. Makes me glad I only use baskets.

I only buy what I can carry in my arms.

I hate people who use the shopping baskets as mobile bins. About 50% of the time, I have to turn the basket upside down and shake out the detritous that lazy scumbags insist on dumping.
