Your homosexual come ons are boring and add zero to the conversation.

They just built a Wal-Mart over a old native hawaiian grave site. (isn't that illegal in the mainland if they did it over Native American graves?)


There was like a ton of protests from the Native Hawaiian groups. I walked in there once, and it just creeped me out. Never going in again.

I was thinking the same thing, BT.

Guess they never saw "Poltergeist"?

That's entirely fucked that they built it on a burial ground. But it's typical of Hell Mart. If they don't care about the living who are negatively impacted by their corporate fascism, why would they care about the dead.

Aside from the embezzling defense contractors tied to the BCE for the last 6 decades, Wal Mart has to be one of the most vile corporations on the planet.

Fuck Wal-Mart.

Wal-Mart = Cheap Plastic Shit.

I worked there for a brief spell back in '92-'93, and after I found out what I learned about that company, I wouldn't work there again, I won't shop there...I won't even walk in the front fucking doors. Those cocksuckers can fuck right off. Period.

Wal-Mart can go rot.

So do I, honestly, though I try to avoid the place. There so much crap and white trash in the aisles, it's tough to get through!

How much black trash crap is in the aisles?

Still, they have good deals on underwear and socks. How can you argue with that?

They also had Scott's fertilizer for my lawn on sale last week. Better price than Home Depot or Lowe's by two bucks.

I think the bottom line is that most of America would sell their soul for a bargain. I'm just as guilty of it as the rest.

I thought you were being facetious. Did they really have a F/F for $3? I could use a place for more brew...

[FORD]

There's no way it was really that cheap. You couldn't even buy one from Goodwill or the pawn shop for that price.

In fact, here is the Wal Mart refrigerator page

Little ones (under the desk beer cooler type) start at $64.

Not bad, but I wouldn't buy it there. Target or K-mart would have to have one around the same price.

[FORD]

Target Little ones are $5 more.

Americans without Walmart?!!! What would we do?!!! Oh no!!

Could we survive?!!!

(sarcasm)

BTW, Apparently, the old native hawaiian remains are being stored in some fucking closet type thing above ground in the store.

BTW, did ya know that Hawaii is like a supernatural hot spot? We have so many ghost stories it ain't even funny. :D

Walmart.....

It's a "Love/Hate" relationship for me.

I Hate...

1) trying to find the few little items I'm looking for in a store the size of 3 football fields.

2) realizing what I need is on the opposite fucking side of the store after I've wasted 15 minutes of my life trying to find it myself without asking the cheerful (sarcasm) Walmart folk for help.

3) having to ask the cheerful (ummm......NO!) Walmart folk for help.

4) not that I dislike having to walk...just hate doing it in Walmart.

5) how small businesses in small towns have been completely consumed by the "Guaranteed Lowest Price."

6) parking 80 miles away from the doors to buy three things to save a dollar. WTF? Why do we do that?

7) standing in line in the "20 items or less" line for FUCKING AGES!...then switching to a new line and watching your old line suddenly start moving as soon as you leave. TYPICAL!

8) I LOVE CHILDREN, but, Geez, parents.!...GET CONTROL of your supposive little angels! Call Super Nanny or something!

I Love...

1) low prices (I'm a teacher who is still in college and is not getting paid) ....A.K.A: BROKE!

2) the fact that they give nice old people jobs (Although, sometimes this can be bad.....I'm a softy, though. It's good to see papaw and mamaw tell me, "Have a nice night, darlin!"

3) 24 hours! This just rocks! I love rolling up there half dead in my pj's at 3 AM with the munchies to buy a frozen pizza (Although I haven't done this since freshman year in college).

5) Not having to care about what I look like when I shop there. There is ALWAYS someone to stand next to there who makes you feel absolutely gorgeous!

6) socks and cotton panties :D
