Tis The Season To Get Your Ass Whupped!

” A mob of shoppers rushing for a sale on DVD players trampled the first woman in line and knocked her unconscious as they scrambled for the shelves at a Wal-Mart Supercenter.

Patricia VanLester had her eye on a $29 DVD player, but when the siren blared at 6 a.m. Friday announcing the start to the post-Thanksgiving sale, the 41-year-old was knocked to the ground by the frenzy of shoppers behind her.

“She got pushed down, and they walked over her like a herd of elephants,” said VanLester’s sister, Linda Ellzey. “I told them, `Stop stepping on my sister! She’s on the ground!

Paramedics called to the store found VanLester unconscious on top of a DVD player, surrounded by shoppers seemingly oblivious to her, said Mark O’Keefe, a spokesman for EVAC Ambulance. ” more . . .

See, that’s that bullshit right there. How do you just go about trampling over a person to save a few dollars on a cheap ass DVD player? This woman had waited since 3:30 a.m. to secure her place in line and peeps just decided to stampede over her 41 year old body, like some damn savages. I guess they were like “Damn a human life! Johnny really needs this DVD player! ” And to add insult to injury, when Wal-Mart called to apologize to Patricia VanLester, they graciously let her know that they would “Put a DVD player on hold for her”.

Hold? You mean to tell me this woman waited in line, at the crack of dawn, for hours and hours, only to be trampled by some thirsty ass wilderbeasts in YOUR store - And you tell her “Sorry” and you’ll “hold” a DVD player for when she recovers? Well thank you very much Wal-Mart. Thanks for nothing. You would think they would have at least offered her a FREE DVD player and maybe even thrown in a few DVD’s to go along with it. Damn! Situations as such make ya wanna “rollback” ya arm “Popeye style” and unleash a big fat upper cut to the the chins of your offenders.

This is one of the many reasons why I am really beginning to dread the Holiday season. The whole commercial aspect Christmas of it has gotten completely out of control. It’s funny how these stores can afford to lower their prices for one day. They pretend like they are doing us a favor, but the reality is they are screwing us over the rest of the year.

And who said I’m suppose to go out a buy you something because it’s the 25th of December?
