A near close encounter of the worst kind
« on: January 12, 2013, 02:14:47 PM »
Today I had to run by Walmart to pick up some radishes, celery and coffee. When I got done I decided to get some gas at the Walmart gas station place. I saw a guy at one of the pumps and thought, "dang, that guy looks just like nadin." As I got closer, because of the shirt and earrings I determined that it was a female instead of a guy and thought, "dang, that woman looks just like nadin."

I finally determined that it was NOT actually nadin because I was in Georgia and she's on the left coast and (most importantly) this woman was minding her own business and wasn't running around being condescending and telling everyone how to do everything.

For the lurkers DUmmies, I didn't begin this with "so" because it's not a made-up story. You'll also notice that I didn't have to create an excuse for shopping at Walmart. That's because frank has given all of us permission to shop where ever we want.

I just find it frightening that there's someone out there who's so equally as ugly as nadin that it entered your mind it could really be her.  Georgia needs to pass a "You're as ugly as nadin? Then put a bag over your head" law.  Let us know if there's anything we can do to help.

It's funny you should mention that. In the Walmart parking lot there was a Chevy Blazer that had a woman's name and phone number along with the job title "Independent Beauty Consultant". I realize that this is probably someone who sales makeup or something, but the first thing that crossed my mind was that it was probably a  job that I could do: "I hate to break the news to you honey, but you're ugly as hell. That'll be $50 for this consultation."

Hey, Chuck, at least you're seeing people who look like primitives.

Which is closer than I've gotten since the morning of November 6, 2012 up here.

I would levy a beer surcharge as well - how else is one to measure how ugly a girl is without employing The Beer Scale ?

I must have missed that memo.  And here I've been for the last six months shopping at those so called 'farmer's markets', trying to subsist on half-rotten fruits and vegetables that are suffering from dwarfism and pest infestations.

Ain't it great to have a site leader/overlord as magnanimous as frank? :rofl:

Sorry Chuck, not buying it.  No one runs out to union-busting store on a special trip for radishes.  

No one.  

Zero bounce.  Try again.

Stigmatizing?  Hold on - wouldn't that necessitate the individual to associate public benefits with shame? 

They don't have an ounce of shame in their bodies. 

I am confused.

Don't forget that I also bought celery and coffee. Of course the coffee was just Folgers and not some European sounding coffee.

Oops, I'm wrong. I forgot I also bought my wife a package of Cafe Vienna. I guess I'm sophisticated like the DUmmies. I suppose I could post one of those 'ask me anything' threads now.

Hmmm, this shouldn't have posted in this thread - I posted it to another thread.  Bizarre.

Well now, one needs to ask why you prioritized radishes first.    This story would have been perfectly believable if you just posted coffee.

Dead giveaway.
