Airstream Snob... Possibly!

Yes, Perhaps I am a snob.

Perhaps the next time I go to Walmart I will do a 1953 - wear a dress, heels, nylons white gloves and a hat!

omg.....I knew there was a reason never to set foot inside a WalMart!

If that is a cross section of America, we are doomed!!!

OMG - or those really - "for real"?
WOW, reminds me why I should always remember when I have to go out for a quick trip, look in the mirror first.

Would that be after you set up a table with candelabras and a white tablecloth outside the trailer in the Walmart parking lot and sip wine and eat caviar and brie cheese on imported British water crackers?

Maybe that is why the RVers are getting a bad rap @ Walmart

One of the people in my answering service association found it, but screwed up the link so that it didn't post correctly. Being curious I thought - well how long will it take to just type it in and peek. It's like the seventh circle of hell... you can't wait to escape, yet you can't turn away.

Many answering services have high turnover - and bemoan how poorly prepared for an interview some of them can be. This was an example of "so you think some odd characters have applied to YOUR business?" reference.

I must admit, Virginia Beach WalMarts seem to have a notch or two up from these. Someone ought to send this to "What Not to Wear"...but this is more like "What not to wear to a Del Rio dog fight!"

The gender benders and the sexy senior transgender man are nothing compared to the bottomless fat women with tank tops and nothing else on.... OMG how have they NOT been arrested for indecent exposure!

Although not in Virginia Beach proper, you need to visit what my girl and I call GhettoMart near the corner of Virginia Beach Blvd and Military Hwy. I think I've seen a few of these fine folks in that one.

I'm not sure personal [sense of] decency necessarily indicates a persons ability to think critically... BUTT, I bet I could guess who "Booty-liscous" voted for
