I Don't Wanna go to Walmart.

The song and video are well done, if a bit stripped-down.
They get the message across, plus I found myself humming it already.

I remember when Kmart was new, that's how I felt about them and all the others like them that followed. But Walmart takes the cake as the worst of the worst, I wonder if that's an evolutionary aspect of capitalism...?

I don't wanna go to Walmart, either, but they've got the cheap antirejection eyedrops.

Shit.

OK, I know that's the stereotype, but they look ridiculous dressing up deliberately because they know it is. No, kids, you do not look cool walking in Walmart with your Growing Up Creepie jammies and Stompeez. Go back to being emo or Goth.

Well, they were only regional, not nation-wide and I didn't see one until the 80's or so. They've metastasized like the deadly cancer they are all over the country now.
