OMG some website wanted to email me the "Five secrets to creativity."

As a terminally creative person you know my answer to that? Why don't you go fk yourself very, very hard.

I mean, like I need my REAL creativity RUINED by 5 generic and idiotic suggestions.

Of course, l am looking for a way,. any way, not to go to Walmart.

The creative answer is Uber, I have heard too many stories of like Walmart stealing your card info. l only have the one. So no. But it's Douglas so not much Uber. Clearly, what I need to do is to find a homeless person to drive my car (it's a bit messy at the moment) and bring me my groceries.

Also, I guess I could pretend The Walmart is a Fun House Carnival and treat it appropriately: LEAP the swinging doors to :"limit the entry of people" even though they like, ALWAYS open it never "fills to capacity Walmart, ANYWHERE I notice) I could ride the moving walkway for the groceries several times and giggle. If I see anyone I know I could shower them with epithets and cursing (or people I DON'T know.)

I bet you anything NONE o f these are in the "5 secrets to become more creative) so BLOW me ,website offering BLOW me. And by that I mean, I would like that website to follow me with a fan, so that my lengthy but sorely in need of a re application of henna would like SWIRL in the breeze at Walmart. I will climb things like a monkey but I ALWAYS do that.;

I seen Midnight Special and thought it was CCR

I didn't even notice that. That is a great tune, sorry to disappoint you. There was quite a few great bands recorded at that place, I have run across a lot of bands recorded there.

I found a way to make Walmart fun. My phone's speaker is quite a bit louder than I realized and like, Walmart muzac is intermittent and SUCKS so hard and well....

I decided to see if I could make it through the Walmart "experience" while playing my favorite playlist, singing along, and even DANCING at times. I wanted to see if anyone would interrupt me. So... I dressed, um creatively but I wore my best jeans which ATM, well I have my best body.; It was for a cost (the body), but it's good now. For an old lady. I will admit the mask made this easier.

I began in the parking lot. WHO does not sing in a parking lot, anyway. Making it past the entry dude was harder, especially since I was trying to enter the exit, and he had a little problem with that. I was singing "Stole the Show:" at the time, and I did not break musical stride, but I nodded and went where he pointed.

Walmart itself was the biggest challenge. Because I wanted to shop, see the reactions, and also like not get arrested. Also, there are places where the musAC makes it much harder indeed. But, I just thought of my opera teacher, she was nuts as all get out TOO. So, there was also a bit of dancing, as the cart and etc. I am not a good dancer. Here, again the mask made it easier.

So I noted some trends. The dudes seemed less offended than the chicks overall. Some of them nodded approvingly. Some of them gave me looks that made me think I had better like head toward the wrong car or something, but really.... I doubt it.. I mean, there was the dancing. Course, there were also the jeans. LOL I made home safe and unmolested so probably the dancing was enough.

The Mexican Mavens were the angriest, especially the ones who were on their phones. I broke stride with a few glares by saying, "I'll stop using mine if you do." This usually resulted in a like, swift exit from my area and since Mexican Mavens on Phones can tie up an isle for 30 minutes, this is all to the good.

They appeared PARTICULARLY annoyed when I got to checkout which is when some of my more, ah, interesting My Chemical Romance songs came on. Singing about cancer at the top of your lungs while scanning with a mask on may be too much for Walmart. I tried to keep it clean other than a fantastic song called "Sinner Like You" by Mr. James Parsons who is very gay and very out and BOY has some pipes. So the line, "Help me mama I done sinned again. Last night I went to bed with another man." That may have been a problem but I am FEMALE so that either remediates it or makes it hermaphroditic but either way, it's a great song. I mean it's a "too bad for you" song, it also contains the lines "Everybody got a bag of bones."

The parents hurried their kids away from the crazy lady because well.... I was acting just the same as their kids, NO BETTER I was providing music not whining. I did not modify the singing for the kids.; Honestly. They deserve it. I have been a kid. They may have learned something.

So yeah, that was cheery and it made Walmart vastly better for me and at least a FEW other people. IF I was a music teacher which thankfully I am NOT, I would make all my students do it, especially now when masks can embolden you. Really the LONGER I did it the more sure the Walmart staff would intercept me but NO.. Maybe they are sick of the music too, IDK but I will say this: NO one bugged me. :At one point, I was climbing like a monkey for diet Pepsi AND singing "When the Party's Over." I don't think you can beat that combo personally but like, NO one was like, "Hey crazy lady TURN off your phone;" IDK projection was harder through the mask but it was good practice.

I may become the singing, dancing masked (even when no longer necessary) lady of Walmart. I could make a Zorro mask I have always wanted one and it leaves your mouth free. No, I should wait, at least for now. I'm in Douglas and you can't go anywhere why not have some FUN? Maybe people will begin to ask for tunes and toss me change (haha, not change, chips) and that would be cool. If my cart filled up with credit cards, sweet.

I totally DIO this and no one said A THING. I dare one of you to do it and report back it was pretty cool.

Yoga soon. Sigh. It must happen.

The only fun I have in WalMart is crop dusting the place on my way out.

The only fun I have in WalMart is crop dusting the place on my way out.

Oh @Bronze you sound like my husband. He is a serious shopper and hates shopping. Maybe I will try this exercise when like, he returns but maybe wait a bit for the house pains to wear off.

I will NOT give him notice. I will carry a clandestine sign and when he tries to stop me I will whip out the sign, "I am now the singing canary of Walmart. If too many people fart, I may falter but OTHEWISE I will be singing the whole time. NO WE MAY NOT TAKE SEPERATE CARTS."

Hehe. Can't wait. I bet I could sing a lot LOUDER with him there and he could like, push the cart so there would be more interpretive dance, and I think that is the part the people with the sense of humor enjoy the most.

I could wear slidey shoes and be like Tom Cruise in his underwear although I read a link om her Walmart demands pans now. I could wear the tighty whities over top though. ;LOL.

Walmart, good for cat litter, batteries, diaper pail bags for the kitty box cleanings, and wifie's citrus flavored Listerine, and charcoal. I always stock up so I don't have to return there all too often...place creeps me out.

 

[Ceejay0875]

So now we're gonna see Anna on one of those "weird people seen at Walmart" videos. In all seriousness though, good job! Now we just have to have a contest here in the thread to see who can find that video and post it first...

 

[Nermal]

I get down to Walmart, from time to time. I have yet to see anybody like those Walmart videos. I'm beginning to be suspicious of their integrity.

My husband is a vendor and delivers to about 20 grocery stores a night. Those people are there, believe me.

 

[stols001]

I have always wanted to be on TV, but only for the right reasons. Gonna have to step up mah GAME.

Maybe I can like, get with a stock cart person and like he can give me a mike and I can be broadcast on ALL of the sound system instead of the boring "Please keep 6 feet away" message it would ALSO be cool if like, he could pre-program all the speakers in the audio section to like LIGHT up and connect to my phone as I walked by, like we could put them every 20 feet.

Wait! I do know Walmart stocker but a) he too nice to exploit and b) former client so meh.; nope on that one.

I have never seen those videos but it is good to know that "People of Walmart" has taken things to a new low.

I could be famous but I'm not going on Ellen if she is still around. I hate her. I don't get how she was ever funny.

Also no TIME OMG I scared myself by looking at renting short term in WV.; We ,may be squatting in a flea bag motel for some time with the dog or we may have to rent a storage shed and LIVE in it. With the dog This sounds unpleasant.

Polish Style Taco with Pierogi taco shell, stuffed with sauerkraut and kielbasa, topped with onions and bacon.

 

[stols001]

I am not even gonna SAY what those look like other than delicious.

Tacos do tend to be a visual problem..... but you certainly have them FRONT and center.

Dude, I am never gonna find a house to rent. IDK why but Clarksburg seems to have a) a hatred for pets b) everyone buys not rents c) month to month or even 6 months a lot of property managers just LAUGHED in my face.

It's so bad even Air BNB rents out (at least, they are the affordable ones because NO I don't want to pay over 3k a month for rent) ROOMS with a sofa bed for 1000 dollars and a SHARED bathroom.

I think I might want to be homeless WAY before I wanted to "share" a bathroom (my most sacred space) with some UNKNOWN Air BNB person HOLY CRUD. That is just not my idea of a GOOD time. The whole POINT of Air BNB is like, the owners are not PRESENT.

Yeah, not in WV.

[ShamrockPat]

Yeah, not in WV.

Anna, I was in Morgantown and drove to Clarksburg last November. It was 30 minutes away. Because Morgantown is home to the University there might be rentals there due to Covid.
