People of Wal Mart Website

>> Tuesday, September 1, 2009

Some people have little ideas that could end up big. Who would think that posting pictures of people shopping at Walmart on a blog could be good? The People of Wal Mart website has proven that little ideas could be big. This site is barely a month old but it drives massive traffic, that is why if you visit it now, there's a big chance that it's down because their servers could not handle the massive traffic that the site gets. Here's how the authors of the website explains PeopleofWalmart.com:

“People of Walmart was founded in August of 2009 by three friends and roommates after an inspirational trip to WalMart. Let’s face it; we all have seen the people who obviously don’t have mirrors and/or family and friends to lock them in a basement, and they all seem to congregate at Walmart. It’s not everywhere that you can shop for milk at 10 a.m. next to a 400lb mother of 6 wearing a pink tube top, leopard tights, and hooker heels”

Selve September 4, 2009 2:12 PM: The people who made this site are idiots and hateful of Americans who can't afford to shop at high-end, overpriced retailers.

Also, some of the photos on the site are "set up" to get people to laugh at lower-income Americans as if they're not human. It's sickening.

I grew up all over Luzon because of the nature of my father’s work. I can remember Dagupan City, it has helped a lot in shaping my childhood, we stayed there for about 5 years. Then in one of the islands in Hundred Islands, I couldn’t remember how long. Then there was Los Baños Laguna, 7 colorful years there. And of course Mandaluyong City. Then from Luzon I came to Cotabato City where I experienced my first “culture shock”. But I later learned to love the people and the place and stayed there for two years. Now I’m here in General Santos City (the Pacquiao town) where I met my destined lifetime partner who is a Visayan who could speak Tagalog, English, and some Ilonggdo. My father is Ilocano, my mother Ilonga, but I grew up speaking Tagalog because that was what my family use at home. I have a 3 year old gwapong long haired son named Joshua Daniel and for now my world and joy is almost inside my family lang, wife and mother muna. I studied in UPLB (Communication Arts Major in Theater Arts for Children) and Mass Communication at Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Colleges where I met my husband. He was teaching there part-time and I was in one of his Essay Writing classes. He encourages me to write and to blog. He majored in English but is so enamored with the language of computers. He takes care of the technical side of this blog and as much as possible does not get his hands wet with painting my emotions in my posts.
