The People of Walmart hits the spot
Humans are interesting beings. There are no two the same. This definitely has its ups and downs. For one thing, variety is nice. On the other hand, some people take that variety to unnecessary levels.
Thankfully, there are people dedicated to sharing with the world how ridiculous people can be. One Web site, known as The People of Walmart, has truly upped the ante.
This viral Web site is guaranteed to make you laugh…or cry. At least it should (in theory) make you feel better about your life choices.
Developed in August by three friends, the site is designed to showcase ridiculous looking people who shop at Walmart.
“Let’s face it. We’ve all seen people who obviously don’t have mirrors and/or family and friends to lock them in a basement. Of course, these are the folks who strangely seem to congregate at Walmart.
It’s not everywhere that you can shop for milk at 10 a.m. next to a 400-pound mother of six wearing a pink tube top, leopard tights, and hooker heels,” The People of Walmart’s About section reads.
The creators of the site have chosen to only give their initials, AJK, ADK, LDW. Whoever they are, I say that you’ve done a great job. This is a hilarious Web site, and a great outlet for people to laugh at themselves and others.
Understandably this will get some negative feedback. The truth is that humor should be a part of life. Taking life too seriously can really get you down. And… It’s always nice to know that you’re shopping with someone who thought it was a good idea to glue rainbow Trolls to their car.
