i love MD AND Wallmarts ... (for cheap toys and DVDs)

but i know what you are saying - exactly.

we're not poor by any means ...but for some junk it makes more sense to go there.
my wife and i comment on it all the time.... 90% of the other shleps lurking around ... but hey ...maybe they think we are too.

i shop in thrift shops all the time .. once they were full of oddballs but now its more kids digging the retro clothing.

i still get the weirdos though ... looking at me with a shopping cart full of books and talking to each other purposefully loud enough for me to hear ... i bet he has a store (i dont) or saying directly to me : ys gonna read alla dem ? ya like books eh ?

i try not to be a snob but for fuck sakes ..back the fuck off !!.

re the poor = ugly ...
as politically unsound this is - often thats the case.

*** warning - generalizations ahead *****

poor people often are poor because they lack the intelligence to have the skills that would give them a well paying job.
so they stop caring about a lot of things ...eating properly, dressing properly.

you see people - mostly women - who could easily be attractive but the years of hard life show in their faces .. their bad haircuts.. their posture.. and their shape. They cant afford to work out at the gym and they're too bust looking after the 13 kids to go jogging with Muffy.

there are many exceptions to all of that .. but i've seen a lot of it first hand.
