Tonight at Wal-Mart I saw at the front of the store a display promoting Metallica's upcoming album. God, I hate that band.

I also saw a woman wearing a tank top that read "COMBAT BABE."

my personal favorites are the large redneck women in looney tunes t-shirts, with pictures of tweety that read "one tough CHICK" or "don't mess with me."

Yeah, it's really weird to me how similar the clientele is at Wal-Marts all over the nation. I've been to 'em from Mississippi to Connecticut, and you always see the same sort of people! I mean, everyone goes there, but there are always the mullet/Camaro/Looney Tunes people.

Don't forget the Yosemite Sam mud flaps that say "Back Off".

I hope Metallica writes songs with more than 2 chords now. Enter Sandman? What the hell was that? Even a hack guitarist like me can play that. It's pretty sad to think they peaked after Master of Puppets.

Well, I saw the video for "St. Anger" and it's nice to know that after careful bargaining they were lucky enough to land Pocahantis as their new bassist.

What's really amusing to me is that the record reps would actually display in WalMart. No wait, now that I think about it... Combat Babe has probably bought a sleeping bag and is going to wait until next Tues. in the store to wait for it.

WalMart freaks me out. I really honestly get completely whigged out when I go in that store. Thank gawd its only for one thing. Hunts Tomato Sauce. Thats it. The only thing. And I stock up.

I know! But yeah, that's Metallica's prime demographic, so actually it's probably quite shrewd. And it's good for Wal-Mart too--she'll be spending lots of money on pork rinds and Mountain Dew for her whole stay!

Wal-Mart is definitely wiggy, not to mention evil as hell. I need to break my reliance on them--I got so used to shopping there because in the South it was pretty much Wal-Mart or nothing.

See I can totally understand your alligance with the all might discount store. I heart Target more than life itself sometimes.

I will wander the aisles, put crap in my basket and walk out of there spending 200 bucks. And NOT blink an eye. And it has yet to whig me out.

But WalMart and its over cluttered aisles, taller than hell shelving packed with stuff, high and low quality of merchandising and yes (here comes the snob in me) the quality of people I seem to run into (I mean really why is there ALWAYS some screaming baby in the aisle right next to me) is sketchie sometimes always just creepes me out.

But its serves its purpose and they carry my tomato sauce so they got me there!
