Wal-Mart = Carnival
7:11 PM 2 Comments »
Hello my fellow comrades and pilgrims of planet earth and beyond. It has been a long day, and I wind it down with a little blogging.
For a while now, Will and I have been noticing a humongeous building on our way to the gym. It appeared to be finished, just unoccupied. So, we speculated about what it could be. We thought, maybe a Dick's sporting goods or Bass outlet or perhaps a Walmart.
Then finally it appears. A Wal-Mart, a Wal-Mart...I hate Wal-Marts!
Today took us there to try and retrieve a new battery, but what we saw was pure Wal-Mart goodness and what is pretty much the essence of the store. I think we all know what I am talking about, but have we ever really "talked about it."
The clientele resembled the line-up from a carnival act. Upon entering the store, I distinctly remember a couple who looked like they were started on a pure baby food lard diet at birth that continued into their formative years and through their teens culminating in what we saw. An extra layer of flab that covered the extra layer of fat that covered the extra layer of goo that covered the stomach, which is where the gut sandwich started. They apparently passed it down to their 8 children, who were all with them, screaming and complaining that there weren't any Captain Lard Bars in the candy section.
Why is Target not like this? Or even a Kroger or Publix? I don't understand. I truly feel that before the building of a new Wal-Mart, there is work that goes on under the ground. I believe that there are tiny seedlings of these "hybrids" that are planted beneath the structure. They are nurtured and strengthened with butter feedings thoughout the process, until they burst through the ground at the grand opening, fully grown. Just a thought.
Peace out,
Sarah
