I know, I know, "But you said you were going on vacaaaation! We left goodbye comments and everythinggggg!" Well, I'm sorry. I'm not really leaving until next Friday. I just had to get some other things done (like sulk around my house all week) so I took an pre-vacation. I'm allowed, okay?
About a month ago, I went to WalMart. "And you say WalMart is smoking crack?" Yeah, yeah, whatever. I had to go in and see what they had in the way of t-shirts for juniors, because it was my daughters' birthday the very next day. I just happened to be driving by and thought to myself, "Well, let's give WalMart another try, shall we? Sure, they sell crap there, and it feels like I'm in the ghetto of another country whenever I go there, but maybe things have changed!" I'm nice like that. Always giving stores another chance.
I entered the store, and walked over to the juniors section. I quickly glanced over my choices. Ton's of t-shirts, some tank tops, and a few ugly ribbed polo shirts. Er...okay.
Let's look at t-shirts. I tell you, I could hardly believe what I was reading on those t-shirts! And I'm no prude either! I whipped out my camera phone, and started going around snapping pictures of the t-shirts.
"So where are the pictures?" I can hear you asking. Uh...er...well, they're on my phone. Safe and sound...because....because...I didn't realize I don't have internet on my phone to send the pictures to myself. That's why. Happy now? Never fear, I shall tell you what was on those HORRID t-shirts. T-shirts WalMart thinks are okay for girls to wear to school or out in public. UGH! Disgusting I tell you! If you are letting your girls wear these shirts ANYWHERE, let alone school, you should be FLOGGED! FLOGGED I tell you!!
So, here are the shirts, straight off my phone...
"Let's download something...Naughty"
"I'm not in a bad mood. I just don't like you"
"I (heart) stupid boys"
"I'm good at being bad"
"You're over rated"
"Just Shut Up!"
"Go Away... Get Off My Planet!"
"Sorry, I don't date creatures"
"GET OUT OF MY SPACE!"
"I Just realized I don't care"
"U Bug Me"
"I Can (bear)ly stand you"
"Loserville Population you"
"Bite Me"
"The Slower You Lick, The Longer It Lasts"
"Love is...A Wild Ride" (2 naked cartoon figures on a motorcycle)
"I've Got The Skills To Pay The Bills"
"You know when you get something stuck under your shoe and you can't get it off?...You're like that"
"If My Mom Calls, I'm not here."
"Should You Be Boring Me This Bad?"
"Looks Shouldn't Matter, But I'm glad they do"
"Hi Loser"
That wasn't even all of them either. On what planet are these acceptable to wear? Planet of the snotty skanky girls? I cannot tell you how disgusted I was. This is what my daughters have to choose from at WalMart. No wonder we never shop there.
Rant over.

Walmart Sucks!
They should sell that t-shirt.
I am happy to have boys...
I prefer Target, but Walmart is the land of cheap school supplies and cheap jeans for the boys. I used to want to get one here, but now I am hoping for a Target.
Sadly its not only WalMart with the nasty T-shirts. All we have here is a Fred Meyer and I have seen some pretty skanky T's in the Junior's department as well.
I don't care for those hate shirts they are not funny only mean.
Okay, they are pretty bad, but there are times when I would like to wear the one that says, "You know when you get something stuck under your shoe and you can't get it off?" Yeah I've met folks I'd like to say that to, but I never will.
I love Target and the brand name stores clearance sales. Who cares if they are last season's clothes.
"Loserville Population: You"
tee heeee...
I agree those t-shirts are not good at all. They are mean spirited. Who are the people buying those?
I never buy clothes at wal-mart. I do however, buy all my cleaning and toiletry stuff, 'cause it's cheaper. I'm not a wal-mart hater :)
I am a lovah ♥
I couldn't finish this entry because it bugged the CRAP out of me that you used wickety whack, wrong.
You must get some schooling from Ice T's 'You Better Check Yo Self Before You Wreck Yo Self,' before continuing on any further in the Wiggedy-Wack arena.
That stuff just breaks my heart, for them, and for my six year old who can read all that stuff.
That garbage is an excellent argument for uniforms at school, imho.
I like them because they are cheaper than my grocery store in some ways... And I've bought t-shirts there that I love. I LOVE my, "I DON'T DO DRAMA" and my and my coca~cola shirts... but I didn't see these, I'd have walked away if I had. They also have the Rider jeans that fit me nice.
Wowee, that's a lot of mean, snarky stuff! No thanks!
Excuse me as I pick my jaw off the floor. . "the slower you lick, the longer it lasts"
Oh yeah, definitely pick a few of those up, maybe even for gifts!
Parents that buy that shirt, or allow their kids to wear them should wear a shirt that says. . ."yes, you're right, I'm an idiot"
Not only would I not buy my daughter those shirts, but I'm really glad we can sew, and that her school has a uniform policy starting this year. Shirts are solid colors (the school chose the colors) and no logos larger than a quarter are allowed. So Wal-Mart won't be benefiting from kids at this school this year. YES!!
The back of all those t-shirts should say,
"My mom smokes crack."
That is the only way my daughter would get away with wearing a shirt like that.
I know, I know, I hear ya.
Why should these young girls be the only ones to have fun with these slogan T-shirts? What about the rest of us - the older women who have birthed numerous children and now have butts the size of Yellowstone?
We need to fight back, ladies. Let's make some special T-shirts for those inevitable Wal-Mart trips. Some possible slogans:
"Meth! Mmmmmm, Meth!"
"I only shop here because that way I have more money for Jack Daniels"
"My apartment manager knocks my rent down if I let him spank me"
"Does this muumuu make my triple chin look big?"
I'm sure we can come up with more. This is a movement we should all get behind.
Crybaby's got some great ideas. I'll take one of each to match with my assortment of skin tight pants and shorts that say Bootylicious across the butt.
Make them XXXXXXL, okay?
I'm not surprised. Not much surprises me, now. I went to Walmart last week to buy diapers (overnights, size 5, which you can't buy at the grocery store, except in the one-week-supply-size). I was hoping to find something else useful and cheap to buy (some shoes for church!?!?), but I kept thinking the place smelled like oily hair and was crowded with people who hate their kids. I grabbed a box of cake rolls to cheer me up and headed for the register. Then, I got to thinking about how the cashier probably hated her job and wasn't being paid enough for it.
So, thanks for more fuel for the fire. Yes, Walmart stinks. I hope the Walmart consumer research department finds your blog. I'm going to go eat chocolate chips, now.
Ditto Wendy Sue. And everyone else. Ick!
oh....crybaby! I had a tear rolling down my face just like that commercial of my youth! You are funny!
Crybaby- LOVE those ideas! LOL
Yep- Carrot, those are some skank shirts. Prety depressing. I bet the moms that buy those for their kids are the same moms wearing halter tops with a roll of fat with stretch marks hanging over their too short shorts.
(I have that same roll, i just don't wear halter tops...)
Wrong, those shirts are just wrong! When did it stop being cool for girls to be feminine and sweet? It's like you have to be skanky and have a bad attitude to be considered normal anymore... :(
"Sure, they sell crap there ... "
This is why we call it Wal-Hud.
Dang, I was responding to everyone's comments, then got curious as to what Wendysue was up to, click on her name, and lost all my responses.
Blame it on her if you're wondering why I haven't responded to you yet.
Tomorrow is another day.
Yes! b. is right! I like that idea and maybe I will make it and sell it--I think I would be rich! I always think, "I'll give them another try." But everytime I walk in I just want to turn around and walk right back out. I can't stand Walmart!
Yeah - I have a niece that wears a lot of those shirts. She and her mom think they are just funny... we'll see how that goes as she gets older :S
Carrot, you have your finger on the pulse of the American culture. Those dirty tee shirts were on the front of the Walmart insert that came with my Sunday paper.
I got another one:
"Crack Whore in Training"
"My mom doesn't care that I grow up to be a crack whore, so she bought me this dirty shirt."
How about:
"I got this crack whore shirt at Walmart"
oh i despiiiiiise walmart. if it's the one i'm thinking of that you went to. i admire your courage to brave that joint to give the store another try. i've just given up. everytime i leave that place i feel like i need to take a shower.
"The Slower You Lick, The Longer It Lasts"?! what the?
holy crapoli. i think the crack whore is well on her way to superstardom if she wears shirts like this.
