"Things that are not as they seem" |
In her summary of last week's Survivor episode Buggy got to talking about her fear of Radio Shack. She said Radio Shack. Am I the only one who can't figure out why whenever you buy something there, they want all sorts of personnal info about you? My husband doesn't like for me to shop online because he is worried about me revealing personnal information, but he will go into Radio Shack for a piece of speaker wire and tell them his SS# my SS# his mother's maiden name, our daughters birthday and the name of the first girl who ever let him get to third base in the back seat of a car. Radio Shack scares me. I have long suspected that Radio Shack was a cult. I know people -- guys, of course -- who felt the need to make a monthly trip for a "free battery." I'm glad it was finally outted. Now I have my own suspicions. What is it with a Mattress Discounters on every corner? How many mattresses can a person use? How often do you replace your mattresses? They can't possibly sell enough to have a store on every block. So what are they doing in there? Laudering money? Running numbers? Any ideas? And what is suspicious in your neighborhood? It is time we reveal the true nature of these evil institutions. Always gentle, never harsh

2. "RE: Things that are not as they seem" |
Oh fer goodness sakes! LOL Well I had no idea I was exposing the evil amoungst us. But I have to agree with Wheezy about the Tanning salon thing. I live in a town that has an official population of 6000 ( they are lying of course, the school system alone has more then that) But how do these business survive? And Why the *F* does Radio Shack need my phone number? There are like 30 hair salons in my town ( yet to find someone who can do a decent Cut) how do they survive? Why are there 30 hair salons, and 10 places that do Nails ( exclusively, not that I get my nails done) and yet there is not ONE Music store. At least 5 tanning places, and there isn't ONE computer store! If we can't buy it at WalMart, we gotta drive 45 miles to Fort Worth. Oh and Tech, last count we had 3 Mattress stores in my small town ( only because the fourth one went out of business). I live in a touristy town, but give me a break, how do all those Antique stores pay their rent?Radio Shack is just scratching the surface. Oh and have I mentioned we can't get a decent Deli sandwich anywhere? I have seen the women in my town, no one is going to the Beauty Salons. (should I stop drinking now?) Buggy- I was only half kidding about being scared of Radio Shack

4. "You want a cult?!?!" |
I'll give you a cult alright!!My wife, many wives on the block and people all around the town (county) have been secretly inducted into the cult of Longaberger baskets. The brainwashing and hypnosis is stealthy and evil. Go ahead and laugh, but how else can you explain otherwise sane women spending close to a hundred dollars for a friggin basket??? Tell me all you want about the "fine craftsmenship" and "high quality wood", but I'm still never going to buy one. And it doesn't stop there, either. After you buy the basket, you can then spend mucho more dollars for a plastic liner and/or matching bow. Is it sufficient to have just one of these things??? Nnnoooooooooo!!! We have at least ten baskets in our house and the story is the same all down the street. Longaberger even has an annual "pilgrimage" to it's headquarters in Dresden, OH. I'm serious here! Somebody, please help! Quick, before she buys the "Winter Solstice Basket".

LAST EDITED ON 11-22-02 AT 09:18 AM (EST)AGGGGGGGHHHHHH, THOSE DAMN BASKETS!!! Why must they torment us? LC...go and read wendyp's threasd about Tupperware. I posted my experience with the basket cult. Tanning Salons, the Korean Nail Places and Pizza Parlours here in my town are doing some kind of back room business. We have 2 McDonalds, a Duchess and 15 pizza parlours. It's very odd. Snoocharoo

11. "Stop before its too late!" |
If you continue to blow the lid off these issues, you may just destroy the US economy. Is it not clear to you that unless we all spend, spend, spend at the 10 nail salons, 15 pizza places, Radio Shacks, etc. the bottom will drop clear out of the economy? We must ignore this thread and proceed immediatly to the nearest mini-mall for haircuts, tans, pedicures, a slice of pizza and some phone wires LOL By the way you are all right of course. It is a vast consipiracy, and Oh no, there here to get me........... Send Helllllllllllllllp Never Let Them See You Bleed

Don't forget the mattresses ... outside of New Jersey, that is, where they really do need all those mattresses.
