OK, who else saw everyone pushing, shoving, and fighting on the news... |
|
...yesterday while they were shopping, and jostling and elbowing each other at tables full of merchandise, and thought how much we as human beings, look and act just like primates rooting through rotten logs looking for grubs.
Maybe an intelligent design nut could explain that one to me...

1. Gives you a warm, fuzzy feeling doesn't it? |
|
The day before Thanksgiving, I left the grocery store where I work at 9 am to go have some breakfast. The mobs were just starting to arrive and as I walked out the door, I could see them coming across the parking lot, in ones and twos, vacant expressions on their faces as they headed towards the doors, for all the world like zombies in a B-list horror movie.
It was quite enlightening.

3. ha ha! I want it explained to me too |
|
I'm curious as to how this survival of the fittest to buy the cheapest crap relates to the assumed gender roles theory. Could the fact that we see just as many women as men act like their lives depend on being the first person in wal-mart evidence that women are hunters too?

4. I'm surprised I haven't seen more footage of |
|
the woman losing her wigs. I've seen the same few fights and trampling over and over but there was a woman I saw only once who fell on the floor and while people were falling and walking on top of each other all around her instead of getting off the ground she just laid there and put her wig back on like nothing was happening.

9. I went to a best Buy yesterday because they were having some great deals |
|
I got there about 11 am, and I asked about the few things I was interested in, and the guy said, "Dude, you needed to be in line at 3 am to get those. They were all gone before we even opened."
What kind of assholes go to a store at 3 am to stand in line?
If there is a reason that the US should be destroyed, that's the prime one.
