Too bad there isn't a way to just fry the great-grandchildren of people who talk the coalmining industry line.  Everybody loses, unfortunately.” Tilt 7:26:43 PM 8/20/07 last edited: 6/05/09 8:21:02 PM” 8:22:55 PM 6/05/09 “god, it never ends.” 8:27:34 PM 6/05/09 “I just read in our towns newspaper that we'll have a new Wall Mart built just three miles away from the other HUGE brand new Wall Mart. Lovely.” 4:32:25 AM 6/06/09 “They leave a trail of those huge empty buildings as they move across the landscape.... Perfect for call centers. I’ve gone back and read the arguments surrounding granting China permanent MFN status and it seems yet another case of something that was easily predicted. The ‘free trade’ (ha ha) pro-globalization people’s reasoning has proved to be critically flawed, whereas the “protectionists’” "anti-business" predictions seriously underestimated the effects. Now China has to continue to buy our treasuries so we can service the debt we have with Them and to fuel the ever-increasing trade deficit. Considering the situation we're in, I find it difficult to wrap my mind around the fact that it's been less than ten years. Where will we be in another ten? Remember when you heard that real estate values were unsustainable ----” 5:45:32 AM 6/06/09 5:50:28 AM 6/06/09 “Wal-Mart must had anally raped t*lt at some point.” 6:35:51 AM 6/06/09 “God only knows how the "Everything is a Dollar" store must affect him.” 7:17:33 AM 6/06/09 “LMAO” 7:33:28 AM 6/06/09 “Stovie , your firewood's a bit damp, you been pissin' all over it also?” 8:18:22 AM 6/06/09 “A person's true character reveals itself eventually.” 9:09:40 AM 6/06/09 Sass.. “You must live near me.. They are building a Superwalmart 1 mile fromm me that is 4 miles closer then the one that is 5 miles away from me.. Good news in that a Dicks and a JC Penney are also going in there, as well as an Olive Garden and a Lone Star and a.. and a... oh and road construction and 3 new stop lights, and 4 new traffic lanes, and a lot few trees... ...........oh and a helluva lot more traffic on a road that is already congested... On the bright side I will get to mingle with all of the TT'ers that shop there!!!!!!!!!

The fire ruined thousands of dollars of merchandise and caused extensive damage to the store in the 2900 block of 53rd Avenue East in East Manatee County around 4 p.m. Thursday. After the fire was discovered, employees saw a man flee the store in a tan pick-up, and other Wal-Mart stores in the area were notified to watch out for him. Two hours later, deputies were called to the Wal-Mart near Lockwood Ridge Road and University Parkway, where they arrested a man who fit the arsonist’s description.” 7:31:14 PM 6/07/09 “holy christ, I've never seen more morbidly obese people gathered in a single building that wasn't crowned with the golden arches than I saw walking into Wal Mart this last Sunday. I can only imagine the aisles clotted with that sweaty, heavy-breathing throng, munching on french fries from the built-in food court. That alone should be enough reason not to shop there” 11:21:03 AM 6/29/09 “hey...I shop there.” 11:22:35 AM 6/29/09 “pepsi...please tell me a place (popular location) where you will not find the Walking BLOBS?” 11:25:20 AM 6/29/09 “REI, for starters” 11:26:45 AM 6/29/09 “actually, the Wal Mart out here is on the trashier side of town... lot of muffin tops, missing teeth, tattoes, and facial piercings there (and that's just the employees, zing!)... not that my town really has a "nice" area, but Target, on the other end of town, seems to draw a much classier clientele, in general” 11:30:07 AM 6/29/09 “LOL Peps I look a little squat....I'm short and built wide. I went into REI a few years back to buy a down winter bag. I don't like a lot of space in the bottom of my bag so I was looking for a short. The salesperson took a look at me and asked if I wouldn't want another bag. I asked for a different sales person. The bag fits perfectly, FYI and it's my favorite bag. last edited: 6/29/09 11:22:36 AM” 11:35:11 AM 6/29/09 “Pepsi, I don't know I have seen some of the "shuffle faster" crowd at some REI's. Heck saw a couple with their to (9 to 12) ish looking daughters in tube tops and what I can only pray were "fake" tail tats...granted they got in a car with a California tag but still trash really has no stopping point.” 11:39:21 AM 6/29/09 “Judge not less ye be judged.” 11:40:08 AM 6/29/09 “hey, I'm fine with people having different body types, and I understand that it's pretty unrealistic to expect everyone to look like the people on TV... but when you see a pair of 400lb parents towing around a 200lb 10 year-old, all carrying matching chocolate shakes... well, let's just say it's not the best sight in the world” 11:44:57 AM 6/29/09 “pepsi..it is their choice...so what if they are going to cost big bucks in health care in the future (LOL)? Geeze come on over the Georgia, I can show you some "flippin and sniffin" girls.” 11:46:57 AM 6/29/09 “I don't even want to think about what a "flippin and sniffin" girl is...” 11:51:27 AM 6/29/09 “I need brain bleach now.” 11:53:58 AM 6/29/09 “don't shop at Animal Farm.” 12:03:21 PM 6/29/09 “You flip through the folds until you smell "s---t" then go back a fold...(LOL) or at least thats what Tilty told me.” 12:04:54 PM 6/29/09 “I see lots of tattoos and "muffin tops" in my university library. Some of the girls come draggin' in here in L.L. Bean pajama pants and fuzzy slippers. There are boys wearing "girl pants" as well. Those pants are like a cheap hotel...............no ball room. At least it doesn't smell like Walmart here.” 12:04:57 PM 6/29/09 “Don't slop at Malwart!” 12:09:09 PM 6/29/09 “there is no amount of therapy that will un-see that mental image, xl” 12:09:37 PM 6/29/09 “We need to smite him” 12:14:11 PM 6/29/09 ““pepsi...please tell me a place (popular location) where you will not find the Walking BLOBS?” theXL400 11:25:20 AM 6/29/09 ignore this user report this message reason: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- “REI, for starters” pepsisformosa 11:26:45 AM 6/29/09 You mean other than the ones fighting over the North Face Fleece?” 12:30:21 PM 6/29/09 “that reminds me, and I'm sure this isn't the right thread but what the hell - anybody got a recommendation for a good and cheap (IE, not the North Face) fleece? I have, like, zero warm clothes and am going to be needing some for an upcoming trip” 12:37:22 PM 6/29/09 “ROTFLMAO....Chili....while I would NEVER require laws on WHAT people can wear. I think good judgement should limit the sizes certain things are made in. watched a 350lb woman in a pair of the spandex bicycle pants and a sport bra going into a grocery store one day. What is the tensile strength of spandex?” 12:38:20 PM 6/29/09 “one time I saw a good 500 pound dude in one of those little rascal electric wheelchair-scooter things wearing shorts that were WAY too short... "how short?" you ask? his balls were hanging out. Literally. I just threw up into my coffee cup remembering that.” 12:40:07 PM 6/29/09 “LOL that reminds me, once as a teen, I saw this overweight guy in the mall wearing jogging shorts...his gizzard was hanging out...BLECH!” 12:41:32 PM 6/29/09 “it was like he was keeping a baby turkey vulture in his shorts, and it was peeking out, looking for mama” 12:42:24 PM 6/29/09 “pepsi - check out Mountaingear.com - they have good deals and good service.” 12:50:44 PM 6/29/09 “"his balls were hanging out. Literally" I think the word "actually" would be more appropriate.” 1:01:38 PM 6/29/09 “campmor has their own brand that is pretty cheap for fleece/polarguard. the stuff is so ubiquitous, that you can find it at thrift stores pretty regularly.” 1:04:25 PM 6/29/09 “WHats that one urban legend about the couple whose care breaks down at the store. The wife goes in to shop and upon returning finds a pair of legs in shorts sticking out from under the car. She notices that the guy's "little buddies" are visible so she calmly tucks them back in.....Only to find out its a mechanic not her husband.” 1:06:07 PM 6/29/09 ““that reminds me, and I'm sure this isn't the right thread but what the hell - anybody got a recommendation for a good and cheap (IE, not the North Face) fleece? I have, like, zero warm clothes and am going to be needing some for an upcoming trip” pepsisformosa 12:37:22 PM 6/29/09 I have bought all the fleece I own at KMart and Target in late spring, early summer. They marked it down 50 to 75%.” 2:00:22 PM 6/29/09 “pepsi...check the outlet stores. Any 200 fleece with a rain jacket should hold its own down to 40F...how cold you looking to go?” 2:10:50 PM 6/29/09 “Old Navy is a good place for cheap fleece.” 2:42:28 PM 6/29/09 “well, we might be looking at sub-freezing in the wee hours of night, but I've got a 20 degree bag that'll handle that. I'd say 40's at the worst” 2:44:31 PM 6/29/09 ““holy christ, I've never seen more morbidly obese people gathered in a single building that wasn't crowned with the golden arches than I saw walking into Wal Mart this last Sunday.

That alone should be enough reason not to shop there” That's a bit shallow. I thought better of you.” 2:09:15 AM 6/30/09 “No Christmas card for you.” 4:38:37 AM 6/30/09 “sorry, I understand being "big boned" or having a glandular thing, but there's a big difference between that and just being lazy and fat. There's no reason a 10 year old kid should weigh 200+ lbs except poor parenting, and these obese parents with obese kids filing into Wal Mart are, at the least, not adding to the company's image” 8:53:16 AM 6/30/09 “if you look around, you will see that everywhere, not just at Walmart. I see it all the time, its amazing how many fat kids there are these days.” 8:58:17 AM 6/30/09 “You're right. It's probably not the best form to make fun of people (though I do it all the time), but I try to refrain from comments about that which people cannot change, i.e. age, race, height, and lack of hair etc. That may be because I am short, old, white and bald. Fat people can change.” 8:59:46 AM 6/30/09 “ "The gourmand is the man who digs his grave with his teeth." ” 9:07:13 AM 6/30/09 Jump to Page << prev
