No Kujo, white guilt is not an issue I struggle with. Thanks for playing though, maybe you can make us think critically on your next post. I'm eagerly awaiting it

I don't know why exactly. Hot white girls are a fickle herd. They typically go places where they can be seen as "cute", high value, and where they feel safe.

Men go and spend money wherever the hot women go.

people will pay more for atmosphere

and people also generally surround themselves with people of the same economic and social class because it is where they feel the most secure

I don't want my kids around stupid and misbehaved kids.

I don't want to shop with or live around their parents.

If there is some correlation to race, that's not my fault.

What the frick sandwich did you order?

I pay more than I have to for beer, because I like trying new beers, and I don't like the Bud/Miller/Coors of the world.

I pay more to grocery shop at anywhere other than Wal-Mart to avoid dealing with Wal-Mart.

Oh, and the only reason any guy pays $6-$22 for a beer is because either:
A. it's some super expensive, rare craft beer
B. Hot white girls frequent that establishment in force
C. They want to feel like a big shot


I don't know why people pay 22 for a beer, but I pay 6-7 because that's what it costs? None of the others apply regarding my intentions, although certainly there are hot girls at those places.

Walking in to Wal-Mart feels like an entirely different world.




Precisely the reason I shop at Costco. I'm never in a checkout line for longer than 1-2 minutes before I'm paying for my items (and that's on a bad day)

I stop by a walmart out of convenience once every 5-6 months for an item or two, and every single time I regret it.

The Wal-Mart complaint doesn't make sense to me, and by that I mean people complaining about people complaining about Wal-Mart.

Their usually slow, packed and staffed by morons. It's not a hard thing to see why people look for alternatives.

I believe that a euphemism. "people will pay more for good school districts". IMO, people are hiding the underlying theme behind their tastes.

Would it make you happy if we just all said we are horrible bigots?

I mean, shite, do you really blame people for not wanting to be around trash? Black or white?

Your premise assumes that wanting to be around people who share your culture and values is a bad thing!

I will pay up to about $8 for a beer, but normally that is just what it costs in Denver.

whole foods is much closer, and frankly walmart is a horrible experience.

Walmart doesn't have the beers I like.

I shop at Rouses and Whole Foods to get a nicer product, and will shop at Walmart if I don't care about what it's like.

This is comical. All the IPAs and microbrews that come and go.
