hugo Posted November 29, 2008 Posted November 29, 2008 And people wonder why we need to be able to protect ourselves. People are still barbaric. The Wal-Mart greeter should have been armed with an AK-47.

ImWithStupid Posted November 29, 2008 Posted November 29, 2008 Here's the worst part... “When they were saying they had to leave, that an employee got killed, people were yelling, ‘I’ve been on line since yesterday morning,’ ” Ms. Cribbs told The Associated Press. “They kept shopping.” What the hell is wrong with people?

RoyalOrleans Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Mental note....RO wants a wet sponge for Christmas..Check! I'm going to give him a watering can. It will be his best Christmas evah!!! Both items are currently in my inventory. How about I just buy you plane tickets here and you two unwrap me?

Ahhlee Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Both items are currently in my inventory. How about I just buy you plane tickets here and you two unwrap me? Sounds delightful. Be sure to save the receipt so we can exchange you if you don't fit. Quote
RoyalOrleans Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Sounds delightful. Be sure to save the receipt so we can exchange you if you don't fit.

Ahhlee Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Be sure to smuggle some other chick with you in case you can't keep up with me. Will a tube sock and a bottle of Jergens suffice if I can't find anyone else? Hey Merc, what are you doing on Christmas Eve? Want to get your groove back? Quote
emkay64 Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Both items are currently in my inventory. How about I just buy you plane tickets here and you two unwrap me? Another Christmas with me doing all the work. I'm in a bad fukking mood! Quote

Want to get your groove back? LOL... probably something boring like assembling toys. Chris is flying in on the 23rd... Maybe I'll do him, if he's real nice. Quote

Outlaw2747 Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 Truly disgusting. Only sheepish barbarians would do this. I bet no one got blamed for it either, he was just some "unfortunate worker".

emkay64 Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 I personally would love to trample a Walmart employee...maybe stomple them too. I'm so full of Christmas spirit...I'm busting, busting I tell you! Quote
Ahhlee Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 I personally would love to trample a Walmart employee...maybe stomple them too. I'm so full of Christmas spirit...I'm busting, busting I tell you! I had to go to Walmart yesterday and I wanted to trample the little kid who was screaming at the top of his lungs, "Mom! I want that! Mom! Mom! I want that! Mom! Mom! MOMMMMMMMM!" How in the FUK do parents tune that sh!t out?????? Quote
RoyalOrleans Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 How in the FUK do parents tune that sh!t out?????? If that were me, my mother would grab me by the short hairs and drag me into the women's room for a sound beating.

mercury Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 you get used to it... plus it reflects badly on you when your head spins around 3 times and you beat them for it in public. there's been a time or 2 that my kids have actually been slightly injured, and I either didn't notice or just ignored it, thinking it was just more of the whining crap. Quote
Ahhlee Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 If that were me, my mother would grab me by the short hairs and drag me into the women's room for a sound beating. Good! I was tempted to stick around and see if the mother rewarded the little demon with the toy after his tantrum after which I would promptly punch her in the mouth, but I had things to do. Plus the kid was giving me a headache so I hurried to get out of earshot from his screaming. Quote

A store clerk hurried over to my mother and me, "Ma'am! What are you doing???" My mom replied, "Burying my son!".

emkay64 Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 I watched a woman sit on her kid in the bookstore after he drop kicked a magazine rack. She just calmly pinned him down and waited for his spazzing to subside. A group of people surrounded the spectacle much like a campfire without the marshmallows and good times. I was proud of her. Quote
mercury Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 I remember Collin having a meltdown at the Pharmacy one day. He wanted to browse the toys. We were there to get milk. Period. I had to do a bear hug restraint on him, while Riley paid for the milk... I think she was about 6 at the time. The people behind me stood around whispering amongst themselves and I felt like the biggest spectacle. When we finally reached the cashier, she asked if he was Autistic. I wanted to kiss her for understanding Quote
emkay64 Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 Did you assume the "mom face of unaffectedness"? We all do it...like we can't hear them...all the while marching them out the store and thinking "I'm gonna kill you when we get home." It's a gift! Quote
mercury Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 nope, I didn't manage "the mom face of unaffectedness" that time. I was damn close to tears, actually. I went home and had my own meltdown, if I remember correctly. Quote
emkay64 Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 Craig took two winter boots to the nuts when he tried to haul Kayley out of Walmart once. He had many a vein throbbing lol. Quote
