I know everyone on Teh Internets™ just LOVES them some People of Walmart. Ah ha ha! You so funny, America!! But what if one of the photos came to life and started demanding that he get his $%#-ing chicken?! Is it still funny?

  1. People don’t love People of walmart because they’re funny. They like it because it’s like watching a car wreck…once you see it happening you just can’t look away.

    People of walmart depresses me and this is (sadly) what I imagine they all act like.

  2. Can we also get a People of Hermes website up and running? picture #1: Oprah in her matching turquoise sweat pants and hoodie. Or what about People of Abercrombie? Yeah the models are hawt but have you seen some the wannabes — or the actual CLOTHES?!

  3. Thank god for the internets so we can watch these entertainments from the security of our gated suburbs, and judge them.

    Maybe someday, far, far in future, we will be able to view rage as a symptom of stress and powerlessness; an explosion of adrenaline in body evolved to either fight or flee, instead of returning politely to a cubicle when the lunch break time expires even if the food has not come yet.

  4. “security of our gated suburbs”

    You don’t need gates my little friend. Up here in the Great White North of Seattle we’ve pretty much eliminated most of the human trash…granted starting at 85th in Greenwood they make an appearance but were working on gentrifying those parts too.

  5. Not exclusive to Walmart or trashy suburbs. I saw something like that happen at the Bellevue Transit Center. It was kind of funny to see how this kind of ‘aggressors’ don’t know what to do when people just starts laughing at them.

  6. ” Bellevue Transit Center”

    Gotta laugh…the transit center? How do you think the trailer trash get in and out of Bellevue to their jobs cleaning up after us?

    No, I’ll be more impressed if you find Walmart Trash at PCC or Whole Foods.

  7. Agreed with @13, this could happen anywhere — more likely in places where the prices are good, because chances are one might actually have to wait for his or her chicken longer.

    The only strange thing I saw in a WA Walmart was a guy stealing a hunting license from a cashier in Omak.

  8. “more likely in places where the prices are good”

    You’re so right, just last week I saw a 300lb member of America’s working class going ballistic at Volterre in Ballard when he discovered his polenta had too much truffle sauce on it. It was all he could do to keep his hoodie on straight.

  9. There should be some sort of device at the entrance of every Walmart that renders the visitor infertile immediately. A simple thing like that would solve a lot of problems.
