You may have noticed the new "Wal-Mart Sucks" category here on bilerico.com Like the Rainman, I have an ongoing theme that's made it to several posts (now I just have to find time to go back and re-categorize them) so I thought maybe it was time for it's own section.

And then the same day, alert reader Annette sent me the link to "I've Got Friends With Low Wages." This funny little animation takes on Wal-Mart's deal with Garth Brooks. The category was crying out for creation - and who am I to deny the birth of a new category?

I just feel so bad for poor Wal-Mart - what with being forced to ensure that their health benefits are up to par. I mean, some of those ugly Walton folks might have to give up a massage or a pedicure or something.... *rolls eyes*

Finally, what a great category to have. Maybe someday people will stop shopping there and see them for UNAMERICAN terds they really are!!!!! I personally take the time to "Flip" them off here in Beech Grove everytime I pass the store.

Thanks Bil
