Nah, not so much on here. But check out the International forum on the grauniad boards.

We don't all shop in such places.

Shopping at WalMart is wrong because:

- they purport to be All American but actually import most of their tat

- WalMart is destructive to city centres

- their employment policies are unpleasant

As noted above, entering a WalMart entails rubbing shoulders with badly dressed fat people (well, the visitor's shoulders, the typical WalMart shopper doesn't have the bodily definition to allow shoulders to be discerned), one assumes that before frequenting WalMart they were immigrants clad in their national costumes and of reasonable build. I suggest that WalMart shopping turns ordinary people into the likes of Drew Carrey and Rita McNeill. Ugh, if people must go postal they could do us all a favour and do it in WalMart.

Yes.

Like YYZ I applaud your use of language. It did use to be a bit like that back in the 90's (when dbd33 and I first "met" there), but alas it's now largely polluted by Murkan freepers.
