Reposting #3, from April 20
The third post that got messed up:
You Really CAN Buy Everything There!
OK, so spending most of my life in small-town Missouri, I grew up
firmly believing that Wal-Mart truly is the mecca for shopping. If
it can't be found in Wal-Mart, it's not worth purchasing or
consuming.
But now it seems you can even buy something else in Wal-Mart: love.
Yes, friends, Wal-Mart now has a singles club. Sort of like
speed-dating but really not similar at all. Sheesh.
You can read about it here.
I wonder if, just for kicks, I could randomly tie red bows around
my cart at, say, Kroger, and get the same effect? Will a red bow
soon begin to symbolize singleness and scream, "Hello, I'm a loser!
Please talk to me because I'm desperate enough to adorn my cart
with a bright red bow just so you'll know I'm single!" As if single
people didn't have to suffer enough humiliation with the endless
questions about when they'll be getting married, now they have to
endure a bow on their cart! It's almost like the Scarlet Letter!
Scarlet A for adultery, Scarlet Bow for
no-chance-for-adultery-because-they're-not-attached!!
