Vermont Vs. WalMart
this is kind of weird. I hate WalMart. Lets just get that out of the way. I hate WalMart, I hate Target, I hate Kmart, I hate Office Depot, I hate Home Depot ... I hate any store that is GIGANTIC. (Costco gets a pass because they're giant, but they dont sugar coat it. you shop in a warehouse for cheap ass, wholesale stuff ... it's different) I'm tired of the unquestioning consumer attitude in this country. I went into a Fred Meyer a while ago and just about crapped my pants since 1) It was GIANT and 2) I didn't even know it was there. You'd seriously have to be sherlock holmes to find this place. Did YOU know there's a airplane hanger sized Fred Meyer in Fremont? There is. I hate any store that looks like it should just say C O N S U M E really big on the front of it. I think Frys is a pretty convenient place to shop for computer equipment, but i feel like a really dirty, horrible person every time I realize there are MARBLE FUCKING PILLARS IN THERE!!!! Now seriously ... somewhere there is a kid drinking the same water a cow is shitting and pissing in. Do we REALLY need the presence of marble pillars while we're shopping for blank cdr's and those cans of compressed air for cleaning out keyboards?

so anyway, i'm stoked that vermont is telling walmart to go to hell. I think lots of snooty ass richies live in vermont, but they're not bothering me, so what do i care.

After work I'm going to go into the auto parts store that's like a hundred feet from my house. I swear it very well could be the last REAL auto parts store in this country. I don't even remember what it's called. all i know is that it's little, it's dark, it's dirty and all the guys who work there look like 50 year old losers who probably do REALLY sketchy shit on the weekends ... and that's how auto parts stores should be ... Not like GI Joes where they sell everything from headlights to camoflauge to kayak paddles. I hate that shit.

people are fat.
