I want a new law!

[BenGarrett]

This is something that deserves serious attention from all of our elected officials, I believe.

I think there should be a new policy put into place for Wal-Mart: If you go to the check-out line without enough money to pay for your crap, you get took to the customer service desk and horsewhipped in front of everybody.

It's getting close to the end of the month, and I guess folks are starting to run out of money (welfare checks aren't due for several days yet). If I have to go back to Wal-Mart one more time and get behind some redneck who has to decide what item they want to put back (the beer, the cigarettes or the bread and milk) in order to get the total under the wad of cash they have in their hand, I'm gonna punch the candy bar rack.

Last night, some 50-ish woman with boobs hanging to her knees was in there slowly taking off one item at a time and then having the cashier to give her a new total. She started with a total of $70. When she finally got to an acceptable amount, the total was $50. Now, what kind of a waterhead does it take to know that if you're $20 over what you have in your hand, taking off a $2 pair of flip-flops (marked down from $4.95; gotta love them Rollback Prices ) ain't gonna cut it.

This woman took off anti-wrinkle facial creme (Lord knows she needed that!), flip-flops, condoms (I nearly died when she pulled them things back out of the bag. With looks like hers, she should've been celibate for at least 15 years) and I don't know what all before she finally pulls out a Ziploc bag full of pennies to have the cashier count. [:@] You ever seen a Wal-Mart cashier try to count? All I wanted was a pint of butter pecan ice cream and a dadgum 6-pack of Dr. Peppers.

Speaking of Wal-Mart, there should also be a policy that says if you're fat, you have to wear clothes to go in there. Have you ever noticed that people dress in the trashiest things they can find before they go to Wal-Mart? I heard Rodney Carrington say once that Wal-Mart is the only place you can go in wearing nothing but a belt and a pair of sandels and nobody will notice. I think he wasn't far wrong. I saw a woman in there yesterday, y'all, I swear to you she weighed 320 pounds. And she was wearing a shirt that showed her midriff. There was flab hanging in all directions. I liked to have puked right there on the spot. As far as I'm concerned, she should've been arrested for indecent exposure. Good grief! I tried to contain myself, but I couldn't help turning to my wife and saying "Good Lord! Do you see that!" And then as we walk by I hear the woman mumble to her companion (who, bless her heart, would've been lucky to weigh 110), "There's another one of them anti-overweight-people sons of *****es."

Awww, come on Ben, don't you respect an individuals right to be morbidly obese and wear a halter top and Daisy Duke shorts in public. [:'(]

On the subject of checkout line gripes: What about the people who stand there for five minutes with their thumb up their butt watching the clerk ring up everything. THEN, they casually rummage through their purse for the checkbook and take their sweet time writing out the check.[:'(]

I hate the ones who do that and then refuse to use the auto feature , just sign the dammed check and hand it over ! Why fill it out yourself and keep half a dozen people waiting ? Oh , and old people , the register tells them what change to give , you don't need to root out your 1956 issue change purse and count out every penny ! [:@]

Lanse:

You just nailed that thing I HATE THE MOST! I freakin hate that! I never write checks for anything anymore anyway. But that seems to happen a lot. Mostly old-timers that don't understand these "new-fangled" debit cards.

Then there's the coupon queen. I'm not talking about 2 or 3 coupons; they have coupons for just about every friggin thing they put in their grocery carts AND they don't use their debit card until all the coupons have been swiped. Sheesh!

Then there's the Mom who gets in line and then sends the kids all over the store to get 2-3 hundred more items.

men of the square table! Man Law!

The law should read: WalMart will provide 50% of it's check out lanes for men only. That way we guys could get what we need and leave without standing in line for hours. I needed some corn oil today (don't ask why) and I stood in line for 30 minutes waiting on a woman to buy enough grocerys that would last an army for two months. There was only two checkout lines open and the other line had three women buying grocerys for the same army.
