Most of those pictures tells a story about Americans more than it tells a story about Walmart (except for the spread gif). Walmart is shopping for everyone. Lowest prices, wide range of items (and quality of them as well), and ease of purchasing. So when I say it is shopping for everyone, I mean EVERYONE. You will find a lot of different people there. With the reasons I listed above, you can get a lot of "undesirable people" (look up "people of Walmart"). You could call them lower class. Most people that hate Walmart, really just hate or want to avoid those people. They are Virtue-Signaling. They would rather go to Whole Foods (Whole Paycheck) and pay someone to slice their fruit for them. Their Costco is the exact same thing as Sam's Club, but Sam's is owned by Walmart. I have been to lots of Walmarts. Some are holes in the Earth, others are great. It depends on where you find it. But the people are still great to watch. In short: Walmart=Nickelback |

Wal*Mart, Coca-Cola, McDonald's are all symbols of capitalism. This is why it is easy to hate on them. I don't, but it doesn't surprise me people comes up with all these rationalizations inpired by their political views.

I never said we should rid ourselves of it, but at the time of that post there were almost no game discussions and just fluff. |

As for myself, I hardly ever buy games from "normal" stores since I mostly buy used games. Craig's List and Facebook groups are for finding rare and cheap stuff (patience is key here), eBay are for when I really want to get a game right now and GameStop is for an occasional pick up if I find something average and cheap. I'm actually surprised so many in here use normal stores for getting games as it's too expensive for my collecting.

It's an evil corporation that encourages land development. I wouldn't have a problem with them if they just established themselves in large cities like Cost-Co and Target do. Instead they pick smaller towns that have no Target, Sears, K-mart, or Walmart and build there. It's sickening. |
