Come Monday, we take what we can get around here.
“People of Walmart” Website Raises Legal Concerns
The “People of Wal-Mart” Web site (PeopleOfWalmart.com) has become an overnight Web sensation. This Web site features photos of people shopping at retail behemoth Wal-Mart locations across the country. The purpose of the “People of Wal-Mart” Web site is not to applaud people for frugal. The purpose of this Web site is to mock the people that shop at Wal-Mart.The underlying premise of the “People of Wal-Mart” Web site is disturbing. As human beings, we should have compassion for one another. Just because someone doesn’t look, act, or dress a certain way doesn’t give others the right to publicly mock them on a high-traffic Web site.

If that didn’t get you to click through immediately, maybe this will.
The unique individuals featured on the “People of Wal-Mart” Web site typically aren’t dressed very well. The captions underneath the pictures featured on the People of Wal-Mart Web site mock these customers. For the most part, everyone that visits the “People of Wal-Mart” Web site laugh at the expense of people that just don’t know any better and probably didn’t know they were being photographed.

Good times. And then some.
Went to the Vancouver WA Wal-Mart once at 11 at night with my girl. I ain’t bullshittin, ain’t never doing that again! Never been back to one since.
I was fully expecting an Eagles post out of you by now. Charlotte is a very deflated place today.
just another reason i don’t shop at wally world!!!
i’ll go out of my way to shop another store!!!
Peace
I can tell you that walmart is big in arkansas. the scariest part is noticing all the people packing concealed weapons. if you’re going to conduct a robbery, avoid doing it at a walmart in arkansas. whenever i go, i just find myself staring a peoples’ bulges.
That’s funny stuff. I honestly expected all of the pictures to be from right here in G-town. We’ve got more Wal-Marts per capita than any other place on earth.
I believe the phrase is “shooting fish in a barrell.” The logic behind the “my other ride has tits” post is truly unassailable though.
It’s like shooting mutant fish in a barrel of toxic waste.
OMG, some strange stuff going on round them there parts.
While I feel bad about laughing for some reason I also feel really good about life in general right now.
the first page, at least, is really very humorous, not mocking. though if you wear an “i hate queers” tee, mockery is also appropriate.
My favorite was the interracial couple, where the girl is wearing a swastika sweatshirt.
Serioiusly… what. the. fucking. fuck. ???
…dunno if i’m supposed to say ‘thanks’ for that or just plain ‘wtf’…
…if there are aliens out there, the ‘great people of walmart’ may just be the reason they’re keeping their distance…
…nanu-nanu & klaatu barada nikto…
…just alien-ently sayin’…
It’s pretty sad when you need something like that to feel better about yourself.
I know huh?
round here we call Wal_mart “The Chinese Crap Store.” Sums it up in four words.
“Chinese Crap Store” is more effecient ;)
Joboo-
If those pics didn’t give you a reason just to go to Wal-Mart your fuckin’ nuts dude.

I’m gone grocery shoppin’, son!
have we reached the point that it is so wrong to make fun of someone that it becomes illegal? Are you fucking kidding me? Who gives a shit. Really, by all means make fun. If I walk out of my house in my wife’s bra, some Rainbow Bright tights with a gun on my hip, for the love of god you better laugh at me. Really, Wal-Mart does sell full length mirrors.
…and by the way, feel free to make fun of me, cuz I love to make fun of me. In fact, I’ll bet a case of beer no one can make fun of me better than I do.
Lighten up Francis…Dave.
There’s only 32 pages…damn.
I just find the POWM site downright interesting. Makes ya wonder just what makes different people tick. And I am not saying that condescendingly.
We all have our quirks, some more glaring than others. And often they are funny. I agree with dan, if I do something stupid, laugh at me. If you do something stupid, I’ll laugh at you. Really doesn’t have to be that complicated.

Dude,
I won’t spend my hard earned cash at wally world……………. I never said i didn’t have a sense of humor!!!
Peace
Touche.
Well played, sir.
Take away the insulting captions and it doubles as the official Wal-Mart website.
Or leave them there, because I doubt they will get read.
‘As human beings, we should have compassion for one another. Just because someone doesn’t look, act, or dress a certain way doesn’t give others the right to publicly mock them on a high-traffic Web site.’
FAIL.
It ABSOLUTELY gives us the right to publicly mock them on a high-traffic web site; or in any other public forum for that matter.
There. fixed it.
If you’re going out in public looking like these ass-clowns in the vacuous black hole of stupid that is wally-world, you DESERVE to be mocked.
