What a Scam. Wal-Mart is offering to convert people's movies to digital for $2/each

I guess since I'm an IT guy I realize what a scam this is. Probably most everyone under 30 also knows it.

If you have many movies you want to convert you can buy any kind of adapters to connect your VHS player to your computer to let you burn your own DVDs cheaper than $2/each. Most of which work with the CD/DVD player you probably already have on your home computer.

If you have just a few tapes - say less than ten or twenty - or are not comfortable with computers then by all means use Wal-Mart.

Oh, what happens when I take in my gay porn VHS tapes and ask them to convert them to digital? That ought to be a real interesting new story in the future.

Other well-known scams: auto repair. Carpet cleaning. Landscaping. Tax services.


Man, can you believe what a ****in' SCHEME bacon is? Shit, man, they want $3.99 a pound for it at the grocery store! All I have to do to have my own bacon is

Find a pig
Slaughter it
Skin it
Butcher it
Build a smokehouse
Cure the belly
Smoke the belly
Slice the belly
Find some way to preserve the part I don't eat
Clean up after it all

I don't know what kind of CHUMPS they're playin' us for, mannnnnnnnn. I'm getting started on my own bacon right after I finish this tool and die shop I'm building to replace some parts on my car, mannnnnn.

Adam Smith? Who the ****'s THAT, mannnnnnnnnn?

 :lmao:  You oughta be able to wrap that up in a few minutes.  Bring some bacon back for the rest of us. 

$2 is all they want?  I spent a boring, boring day doing this to home VHS tapes.  I would have gladly paid this, and gone off and done something fun.  Or productive.  My choice.  This is a basic building block of an economy, you DUmbasses.

This primitive is complaining over $2??  I think this is a great idea -- I've got a bunch I would love to have converted someday!

Grow your own dope -- plant a Democrat!

"We will preserve for our children (America), the last best hope of man on earth, or we will sentence them to take the first step into a thousand years of darkness. If we fail, at least let our children and our children's children say of us we justified our brief moment here. We did all that could be done."  -- Ronald Reagan.

"Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government. You can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you." -- Quest for the Holy Grail

I looked at your pics and thought you were addressing the gay porn part. Sorry, my bad.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site
