People of Walmart

Politicians love to say that America's greatest resource is
its people, and everyone knows that no place is more
American than Walmart -- so clearly, our greatest resource
is the Walmart shopper. Proving just how right that is,
People of Walmart.

Just launched, PoWM celebrates the awesomeness of our
Northeastern neighbor's finest/only contribution to anything
by showcasing covertly taken photos of all manner of
Wal-creatures, in natural shopping environments from
Washington State to the Louisiana Bayou. The foundation's
laid with prototypical wonders, from the grossly sexual
(woman in high-riding dress w/ fully exposed buttocks,
pushing cart past issue of Cosmo), to the fearlessly
competitive (man in sleeveless/side-less/belly-less shirt
playing PS3 in Electronics), to the draftily NAFTA (man
wearing nothing on chest but a necklace of keys purchasing a
ventilador imported from Mexico). Things get weirder with
"You Button-Hooked Me" (goat aimlessly wandering the
aisles), "Captain Walmart" (tiny old man in Cap'n America
get-up at checkout register, hopefully cracking "now where
would I keep a checkbook?" joke), and, in the products
department, "Start 'Em Young": a "vibrating electronic
tattoo pen" that implores kids to "get inked!" -- Walmart
appropriate, as nothing encourages starting a family like a
tramp stamp.

To encourage user submissions, PoWM's running regular photo
contests with $100/$50/$25 Walmart gift cards going to the
winners -- because everyone knows the Internet's greatest
resource is any jerk with a digital camera.

Behold the glory at:
