What does it say about someone who constantly calculates the turn in and try's to hit the apex of every turn while pushing a stroller through Disneyland...?

...you want to get out as quickly as possible?

I like to have fun with weight placement and over/understeer of grocery carts. No real experience with strollers.
It says he's bored.....
I do it all the time, even add in the engine noises sometimes for Sydney as i push the stroller...

entry speed and angle is everything going down isle 7! 
Soundtrack in my head at Kennywood (local amusement park) with stroller:
"Emily is coming down the straight, she's taking full advantage of the draft behind the number 21 stroller, it looks like she's going to make a move on the outside, she looks, she looks again, no, she's held up in slower traffic, OH! she's going for the pass on the inside! She cuts through the snack bar to make the pass!!!!"
I miss the stroller days.
With me it's automatic regardless of where I am. I get annoyed when people don't follow the right line and guess where I do most of my passing. 
Yeah, if a shopping cart isn't sideways, we aren't having fun. Now if I can just perfect that while RIDING it......

I do the exact same thing.
I make pitstop tire changing noise while changing diapers as well as most of the things you guys have already listed
I was very happy to see that the grocery store I frequent had two sizes of cart (not counting the toy kiddy carts): The normal family size, and what I call the sport cart. Lighter and much more maneuverable, it's always my choice.
Lose the baby, they're just unnecessary ballast.

The Targets around me have started introducing all plastic carts. They seem to be lighter, and more nimble, almost a monocoque chassis if you will. The only thing that scares me is they're freakin' SILENT.

that's because they are hybrids. i like the old beat up metal carts with the one wheel that always shimmies and squeaks.. but then, i also love big heavy American cars...
I've been shopping cart drifting for years. Mom hated it.
Racing a shopping cart or stroller isn't really a problem until you find yourself fitting grippier casters or starving the kids to save a few ounces.
+1 for drifting shopping carts. Also when I'm running sometimes I make car noises.
Any of you have experience with the fourwheel steer carts?
Yes IKEA has awesome four wheel steer carts, when my son was around one we skipped right over driftng and went straight in to full on donuts. Gotta love wide isles.
yes, I hate those things at IKEA. They feel so unnatural

I stuffed one into the mouldings on the outside of the lumber turn at Home Depot. They can be a handful.
